Re: How to install OpenEMM on RHEL and its forks

I know there is no reference to it in the documentation, yet it is in the code, is referenced in error messages, and is being called upon during the database install portion of the install. I have attached the error message in a previous reply, along with the locations in scripts where the console u...

Re: How to install OpenEMM on RHEL and its forks

Ok, thats my fault then. Can you provide an answer to what the console user is doing? Is that needed? Will the installation break if that user (and its home dir structure) is not created?

Re: How to install OpenEMM on RHEL and its forks

Also, using the guide to set up sendmail instead of postfix, does not work. I'm not going to build this out again just to list the errors your team should be fully aware of if you attempt to build your own product using the guide you publish.

Re: How to install OpenEMM on RHEL and its forks

To reproduce your steps it would be helpful to add the OMT version you are using. For instance, I am offered to install Tomcat-Native, so there seems to be a version with a bug. Also, I never see user console in my installation, because this user is reserved for the commercial version. This works w...

Re: How to install OpenEMM on RHEL and its forks

I have not configured TLS, or added any certs to this as of yet. I'm pretty sure they'll also not be easy to set up. I will update this guide when those pieces are figured out.


If anyone has any concerns or issues, I will respond and try to help as best as possible.

Re: How to install OpenEMM on RHEL and its forks

Notes: You do not need to disable selinux, just set it to permissive. This is not only a better security practice, but saves you from a reboot as well. You can install python at the same time you install mariadb, bypassing half of the guide. You also, do not need to do any extra configurations to ma...

How to install OpenEMM on RHEL and its forks

Hello, After attempting to install OpenEMM on several different operating systems, following several guides listed at https://wiki.openemm.org/doku.php , for about 2 weeks. I have finally managed to get it running. Below is a guide I have tested by rebuilding a working OpenEMM at least 5 times to ma...

Re: Python 3.8.8 and mariadb 10.3.28 not supported by 21.04

If you install mariadb correctly, and java 11 correctly, get the database installed, get tomcat installed, this issue still persists: genrsa: Can't open "/home/console/tomcat/conf/keys/birt_private.pem" for writing, No such file or directory Can't open /home/console/tomcat/conf/keys/birt_p...

Re: Python 3.8.8 and mariadb 10.3.28 not supported by 21.04

When OMT.sh offers you to install java-1.8.*, exit the script and run: yum install java-11-openjdk Alright, mariadb doesn't want to work anymore. These were all issues following the latest guide, I will keep attacking this in the hopes it will work. In the mean time, can you please update the guide ...

Re: Python 3.8.8 and mariadb 10.3.28 not supported by 21.04

In section " 3.2 RHEL Operating System", it mentions OMT.sh will install JAVA 11. It will not. It will provide you with " java-1.8.0-openjdk java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel". The same version the guide tells you to remove, and the wrong version the guide tells you OMT.sh will install. f...
