Binary packages: which distribution is most demanded

[Alex Kirhenshtein]

Hello.

We are planing to provide binary packages for NetXMS, but we need to decide, which OS / Distribution should go first.

Note: most likely that there will be no binary package for Gentoo - only .ebuild, since Gentoo is user-build and completely unpredictable in sense of libraries and their versions.

Hi,

Are there any plans to release .deb-packages for x64 for Debian/Ubuntu?

Thanks.

[Victor Kirhenshtein]

Hi!

Yes, x64 Debian packages will be released soon.

Best regards,
Victor

Personally i use centos x64 so i would like to have rpm built for  both x86 and x64 for centos.

we use OpenSUSE 13.1 because of the new Hyper-V Gen2 Support

Don't bother with a FreeBSD package.. create a port, not a package.
There is one but it's version 1.0.13

I second the FreeBSD port!

I second the FreeBSD port! 

I can make the port for MySQL but I'm not going to test all the other database options.. It's my only machine and I want to keep it clean. Can't promise that I can keep it up2date either..
I'm out of a job now so I have time, but I hope that won't be for long..

Even upgrading port to latest release will be great. If test system is a problem, I can provide you access to test virtual machines with FreeBSD. Please contact me directly if you are interested.

Best regards,
Victor

I'll see what I can do. I already have a setup with MySQL so I can start with that.

Hi,

There is a port for 1.2.13 in preparation.
Check http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/188406

I have used it.
I have had to delete "NO_PACKAGE=     yes" line from the Makefile in order to build and install.
It build and install ok, the server is stable.

I have problem with the agent (1.2.13). For different parameters the agent return INTERNAL_ERROR.
An agent log (debug level 9) look like this:
