This is fossinit trying to initialize the agent. It runs every agent with -i, regardless of what is in Scheduler.conf. I'm not sure if we'd want to not have it do that when running fossinit and somehow only run a certain set (like what was used in Scheduler.conf), if it's installed it should be able to be initialized properly. Maybe as part of initialization the agents should check if their needed dependencies are available? nealk what do you think? > > I commented out the pkgmetagetta line and ran *fossology-scheduler -t* > > and didn't got any errors.

Probably it should only be checking the agents that Scheduler.conf is configured to run. nealk, what do you think? > > If I add the pkgmetagetta line back in *Scheduler.conf* then the error > > is the following: > > > > *FATAL: Scheduler error: Unable to access license cache > > '/var/local/lib/fossology/agents/License.bsam'* > > * FATAL: Inconsistent agent(s) detected.* This is probably because fossinit (called by fo-postinstall) didn't complete properly and so License.bsam didn't get generated. Maybe we should record init state somewhere and if fossinit never ran successfully then the scheduler should complain about that first. > > That seems to indicate that the installation didn't finished.

I think the problem is probably a missing dependency on libextractor-plugins (We didn't see it in our testing because it was already installed. Eventually testing will be automated to run in a clean chroot in order to catch those sorts of runtime problems.) I just fixed that in SVN today but haven't made new packages available yet. For now what you need to do is 1) apt-get install libextractor-plugins 2) rerun fo-postinstall 3) run 'fossology-scheduler -t' to make sure all is well 4) start the scheduler Reply to the list if you still have problems.
