<![CDATA[Installing agent onto Ubuntu 12.04/14.04]]>Hi All

I was browsing through the forums and was wondering if anyone else is having an issue installing the NetXMS agent onto Ubuntu 12.04 or 14.04 x64?

I downloaded the netxms-base_1.2.17_amd64.deb file and installed it okay using dpkg -i, I then moved onto the netxms-agent_1.2.17_amd64.deb but it comes up with the following error:

...
Unpacking replacement netxms-agent ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of netxms-agent:
 netxms-agent depends on libsensors4; however:
  Package libsensors4 is not installed.
dpkg: error processing netxms-agent (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Processing triggers for ureadahead ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 netxms-agent

I then decided to try the generic linux package, but when I gunzip the nxagent-1.7.17-linux-x86-static.tar.gz file I find there’s only “nxagentd”. Is there some way to set up just the nxagentd?

It's a bit strange though - I test it on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and installation went fine.

Best regards,

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
 netxms-agent : Depends: libsensors4 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Simply do in console:

echo deb https://www.netxms.org/apt wheezy main >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/netxms.list

Then

apt-get update && apt-get install netxms-agent

Debian 7 packages should work on Ubuntu, and so you can use repository for Debian 7. You can just add

deb https://www.netxms.org/apt wheezy main

to /etc/apt/sources.list, then run

apt-get update
apt-get install netxms-agent

Should work fine.

Best regards,
Victor

The only distros I see in the repository are for Debian 5, 6 and 7.
How do I go about using them for Ubuntu 14.04 and 12.04?

I suggest adding the netxms apt repo, and installing said packages from the apt repo.
Apt will take care of the dependency chain automatically for you.
