NetXMS video tutorial series
-
That could be great to have a section about Network discovery and how to discover nodes behind a proxy and their corresponding parameters in server configuration. I think every sys admin would love to automate his work.

Tomas, I would like a video tutorial on how to be awesome like you. You've done so much with this, it's a beacon for netXMS. If it weren't for Tomas's help and videos... I would have looked at it, maybe installed it and moved on due to difficulty in figuring out how to use it. I know all of the great things Tomas has done with NetXMS, so I plow ahead know he'll light my path.

hi Tomas,
Totally newbie with linux and trying to get netXMS running on ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
The first video i already stumble. When i get to the part op apt-get search netxms* there are no files found so something is going wrong.
Netxms changed webstructuur but i guess is has to be echo "deb http://packages.netxms.org debian wheezy main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/netxms.list
I do see some notifications like:
Reading package lists... Done
W: The repository 'http://packages.netxms.org debian Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
E: Failed to fetch http://packages.netxms.org/dists/debian/wheezy/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.Any help would be great!

root@ubuntu:/home/netxms# wget -q -O - packages.netxms.org/netxms.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
OKbut then;

some steps in progress. After some digging (for me at least) i found the working command
echo "deb http://packages.netxms.org/debian wheezy main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/netxms.list
wget -q -O - http://packages.netxms.org/netxms.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
apt-get update
apt-cache search netxms*
apt-get install netxms-server
apt-get install netxms-server-mysql => and then an error:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree  Â
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 netxms-server-mysql : Depends: netxms-server (= 1.2.17) but 2.0.5-1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.so i noticed the note and tried apt-get install netxms-dbdrv-mysql
Still no luck. Again:

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.Clearly something is wrong, but how to fix? Please help

'netxms-server-mysql' is the legacy package (for usage with 1.2.x).
You should use the 'netxms-dbdrv-mysql' (as you correctly did for the 2nd try).As to why 'libmysqlclient18' is not installable on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, I dont know.
Alex will probably have to check if there isnt some issues with .deb packaging for 16.04. -
I really had my hopes on netXMS but neither the Linux nor the windows versions seems to installÂ

Linux see above, windows stumbles on sql error. Windows fresh install btw. Got the impression that netXMS is not ment to be for me unless someone could help me out with the Linux installation. -
