Noob installation problem

[turboaaa]

Hey guys,

I have been trying to get Opsi installed in my lab, but keep running into the same issue. I know I am missing something really basic so thank you for your patience.

I am installing on CentOS 7, running as user with administrator rights, and running all commands with sudo, and these are the commands leading up to the error:

Code: Alles auswählen

yum install epel-release
hostnamectl set-hostname opsi.dmz.mast
/etc/init.d/network restart
yum install xinetd 
touch /etc/yum.repos.d/MariaDB.repo

The following is entered into the file created above

Code: Alles auswählen

# MariaDB 10.0 CentOS repository list - created 2015-03-20 00:45 UTC

baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/10.0/centos7-amd64

Code: Alles auswählen

chkconfig nmb on

yum -y install wget  
cd /etc/yum.repos.d 
wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:uibmz:opsi:opsi40/RHEL_7/home:uibmz:opsi:opsi40.repo 
yum makecache  
yum install p7zip p7zip-plugins cabextract 
yum remove tftp-server 
yum install opsi-depotserver opsi-configed

The error is as follows

Don't forget you have create the user and group pcpatch.

Thanks for the quick response. After reading over my post I realized I was having permissions problems when it came to creating the account. I am still new to Linux, so it was my fault for not running this as root.

Until I can get back into my test machine could you answer this for me. Do I need to create the accounts manually, and if so what is the best method, or will the installation do it for me?

Thank you so much for your time!

Don't forget you have create the user and group pcpatch.

So I created the account and group, however when trying to start the opsiconfd I get

Code: Alles auswählen

[root@localhost ~]# service opsiconfd restart
Stopping opsi config service...   (not running).
Starting opsi config service..su: warning: cannot change directory to /var/lib/opsi: Permission denied
-bash: /var/lib/opsi/.bash_profile: Permission denied
....   (failed).

I am thinking this is a permissions problem with the user\group I created. Any ideas?

Hello,

Don't forget you have create the user and group pcpatch.

This is done automatically during the installation.
I'd suggest removing user and group and then reinstall opsi with root privileges.
Also, if on CentOS, I'd suggest disabling SELinux if your new to Linux.


With kind regards

Oh, bugger, you are right. That'll teach me to only look in /etc/group and /etc/passwd and not in my installation notes.

LOL I have done that before as well.

Disabling SELinux helped with all errors except for the "permission denied" when trying to run opsiconfd. However, I think the problem is that the GID for pcpatch is not 992 but 1002 (or 1001, I can't remember off hand). Going to attempt to change the GID to see if it helps.

Thank you all for your patience, this installation has been a big help in my learning. Most of the information I have found has been wrong or outdated, causing me to learn how this stuff works in order to make it work.

Anyway, if you guys have any more ideas on the GID or permission error I would love to hear them.

try

Code: Alles auswählen

opsi-set-rights

and start opsiconfd
