Post by Bala.Mutyam »

Hi,

I'm trying to install VMware Perl SDK on our NagiosXI server using instructions in https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... ios-XI.pdf but I keep on getting this message when I ran the installer. Can you please help?

Code: Select all

[root@localhost vmware-vsphere-cli-distrib]# pwd
/tmp/vmware-vsphere-cli-distrib
[root@localhost vmware-vsphere-cli-distrib]# ./vmware-install.pl EULA_AGREED=yes
Creating a new vSphere CLI installer database using the tar4 format.

Installing vSphere CLI 7.0.0 build-17698549 for Linux.

Please wait while configuring CPAN ...

please restart the installer.

Hi Bala.Mutyam,

What operating system are you using for Nagios XI. The installer is sensitive to which version of SDK based on the OS. Please let me know.

Thanks,
Benjamin

Hi,

Great, thanks. So for that OS (Cent 7), you'll want to install version 6.5 of the SDK. Please try again with version 6.5, and post any error output to the ticket if it fails to install.
