    It's ok with /etc/netxmsd.conf - it's just printing what config file it's using. The error is "FATAL ERROR: Cannot open log file".

    I can think of two reasons for that:

    • you are starting it as regular user, but the log file was previously opened by netxms running under root (because systemd lauches it this way). So under regular user you don't have rights to write to same log file. Try running under root user.
    • check log file configuration in /etc/netxmsd.conf. Does it point to non-existing folder?

      Hi, Filipp. I ran the netXMS server under root user:

      root@hpserver1:~# systemctl start netxmsd
      root@hpserver1:~# systemctl status netxmsd
      ● netxmsd.service - NetXMS Server

      Nothing to point to the non-existing folder.

        try deleting /var/log/netxmsd and running
        netxmsd -D 6
        again.
        Wil the error be the same?

          Hi, Filipp

          I deleted the /var/log/netxmsd file

            You are running netxmsd as user "josemb" which does not have write access to /var/log.
            Either run netxmsd as root, or change configuration file location.

              Hi, Alex I appreciate your time to help me. I repeated the Filipp procedure as root user. The computer screen sent the following messages:

                According to systemctl output, netxms is installed in /usr, but it tries to load modules from /usr/local/bin - this looks like you mixed binaries from different versions.
                I recommend to clean both versions, then configure and make install again.

                Which distro do you use?

                  Hi, Alex. I am using Ubuntu server 18.04. Question: How can I clean both versions?
                  Thanks in advance.

                    I would do the following way:
                    apt remove "netxms*"

                    Then find and delete the following files on the file system:
                    libnx*
                    libnetxms*

                    And then install netxms again - install  netxms-release package and then netxms-server, netxms-agent and database driver package.

                      Hi, Filipp. Thanks for your sooner reply to my post. I have a Database question: we have a current netXMS database. With this in mind. Do I do

                      nxdbmgr upgrade or

                      nxdbmgr init

                      Thanks in advance

                      Jose

                        The database will stand as it is, so there is no need to do init or upgrade. Netxms will just connect to the database that it has in config file.

                            Hi, Fillip. I followed your directions to re install the NextXMS on our server.  However, when I tried to install it appeared an error:

                              Did you manage to find and delete libnx* and libnetxms* files?

                              Please show the output of these two commands:

                              ldd /usr/bin/nxagentd

                                  Looks like files from netxms-base package are missing - try to re-install it.

                                  Best regards,
                                  Victor

                                      apt install netxms-base

                                      if it's already installed, try removing it first with
                                      apt purge netxms-base

                                        Hi, Filipp. First I appreciate your time for help me. Second, Every thing is Ok. However, when

                                        sudo apt-get install netxms-server netxms-dbdrv-pgsql

                                        Additional steps required:

                                        1. Edit default configuration file (/etc/netxmsd.conf) <----- Done !

                                        2. Load database schema

                                          nxdbmgr init <--- I have a question here. Do I have to do it or I do nxdbmgr upgrade. Because I started netXMS server without this step and It  doesn't work

                                        1. Start daemon with command:

                                          systemctl start netxms-server

                                        The latest 3 lines of the file /var/log/netxmsd

                                        2020.12.09 13:31:22.401 *I* [                  ] Platform subagent "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/netxms/linux.nsm" successfully loaded
