I don't get it. You want a bog standard RHEL or Centos. It should take no troubleshooting time. I'd reinstall - or have someone else do it until you get one that isn't broken to start with. > I am also having to go back and resolve dependency issues with rrdtool, jicmp, et al. So far I'd say its impossible to go through all these dependencies without yum if I want to install OpenNMS. That's why you want a working yum. And you need it for the base OS updates as well. > I like the way Hyperic HQ installed.? Clean. Fast. Straightforward. So far, it looks like we would have to rebuild OpenNMS and to develop our own build packages in order?to deploy it in our environment.? We use HP SA to deploy software and manage those system processes.? There are way too many dependencies to make this a seamless process to install. The stock RH or centos tools do just fine. > And not so sure I could justify Consulting dollars without being able to show something up front. Find something that will run VMware player or server, drop in Centos 5.3. It's about 15 minutes after that to have a working OpenNMS. If you need consulting, it should be to fix your yum setup. -- Les Mikesell les...@gm... |
