Hello,

I was trying to do an manual installation of our system to Centos 8, I ran into a problem

The message that it stopped on was
Collecting pymssql<3

I did find this web page, it may be unrelated
https://github.com/pymssql/pymssql/issues/668

Hoping you can assist.

Could you attach the full install.log from the installation directory?

It looks like the system is having problems reaching out to install the package from pip

Is this system behind a proxy?

Yes, the system is behind a proxy. Have I missed one, I have done yum, wget and curl?

Hello,

I had added entries to files yum.conf, wgetrc and a alias for curl to use the proxy.

Is this a better approach?

export http_proxy=http://<IP Address>:<Port>/
export https_proxy=https://<IP Address>:<Port>/

This appears to work to rectify the point where my issue started.

I have now manged to do a full install and restore of my existing system, still working through some issues there.

Thanks
Terry

This is our recommended approach for use of proxies:

I am glad that you were able to complete the full install successfully. Please start a new thread for any issues that you might have with Nagios XI 5.7.1. Thanks!
