OK, all I see in postinstall is /bin/sh -c "/opt/bitrock/zenoss-stack-2.4.2-0/helperBinary --mode unattended --rpmstage postinstall" I assume the problem is in this helperBinary -- what does this helperBinary do? > Posted: Wed Jul 15, 2009 4:16 pm Post subject: > I have installed Zenoss on Jaunty numerous times with no issue, I too edit > the sources.list file and install with apt-get, it has always done so without > an y issues. > > I create a Zenoss user and do everything in there, however, when I add > zenpacks, I have to use sudo, then the zenpack folder has root only > privileges, I then reapply root:zenoss privileges recursively to that folder > and it solves it. > Erm? -- but the installer script creates the zenoss user. How do you do "create a Zenoss user and do everything in there" exactly? -- are you following some guide? I do apt-get install zenoss-stack as root, and it creates the zenoss user. Should I be creating the zenoss user before running apt-get install zenoss-stack? (I tried this, with no help). -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://forums.zenoss.com/viewtopic.php?p=36984#36984 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
