Hello all,
I would like to try this monitoring system, but so far I am encountering some issues during installation with .deb packages.
I tried installing them on my Ubuntu 8.04 server, in this order:
netxms-base_1.0.8_i386.deb
netxms-agent_1.0.8_i386.deb
netxms-server_1.0.8_i386.deb
netxms-server-mysql_1.0.8_i386.deb
the base package installation went fine, but as soon as I started installing the agent I ran into this issue:
root@pxmonitor:/root/netxms# dpkg -i netxms-agent_1.0.8_i386.deb
Selecting previously deselected package netxms-agent.
(Reading database ... 47061 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking netxms-agent (from netxms-agent_1.0.8_i386.deb) ...
Setting up netxms-agent (1.0.
...
Cannot open file /etc/nxagentd.conf
though, the package gets installed properly, as I can find the binary file under /usr/bin/nxagentd and the relative /etc/init.d/nxagentd startup script.
Tried to subsequently install the server and the mysql package, both of them get installed properly but the configuration file is still missing.
The last tentative I made was to get the nxagentd.conf-dist from the source tarball and manually copy it to /etc/nxagentd.conf, then tried to reinstall the agent,
but the error message is still there AND the configuration file disappeared.
I suppose there are some issues in the .deb package post installation scripts, I will open them up now and see if I can find the cause.
regards,
stk.
