Hi Chris, Thank you for commenting but this answers only partly to my posting. Centos 8 part is now clear but still I'm wondering about ZEN image problem which still exists (cannot run configurator because configurator cannot login to db because of wrong credentials)
After my initial question I already tried to install Centos7 which I used to install Packetfence directly from repos but pf service did not start properly so I did not succeed to run configurator from https://<server-ip>:1443/ and also there was same problem with db (wrong credentials for user root and pf) I will reinstall Centos7 and give it another try to get testing environment up and running...

They're still actively developing it now (https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Finverse-inc%2Fpacketfence%2Fmilestone%2F43&data=04%7C01%7C%7C8912bc84af724d0fd69908d9502d68c5%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637628978232423402%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=QY%2B0EngIprzFJstEFQ%2FOPm95Qdu0P8PzJ8RIHFoXK1o%3D&reserved=0.) But I wouldn't use that percentage as a goal for release. They released 10.3 with something like 80% complete. And they're still at 96% complete on 10.3, and it's been out since April. Their documentation states that they support RHEL 7.x, CentOS 7.x and Debian 9. See section 3.3 in the Installation Documentation: https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.packetfence.org%2Fdoc%2FPacketFence_Installation_Guide.html%23_system_requirements&data=04%7C01%7C%7C8912bc84af724d0fd69908d9502d68c5%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637628978232423402%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=xktCerspAKWhnwz4LGDCnBKjdVgOrSAMkeP4FT2g700%3D&reserved=0 This doesn't answer your question.

Hi, I have tried to test Packetfence by creating virtual server and using ZEN image but reason unknown it seems that PF's initial configurator creates wrong credentials to db and configurators "dies" (or starts to tell that cannot access db... Then I tried to install Centos-8 stream to virtual server and install packetfence by using yum but manuals tells only RHEL7 installation procedure which seems to be outdated. I tried to upgrade repo from stable 7 to stable 8 but still there seems to be need to to do some serious compiling of ipt_NETFLOW and perl modules before system starts up... Is there any plans to fix OVF image or does somebody have advice how can I walk through configurator to create proper testing environment?
