Install Script CentOS - no SUDO capabilities #21

Closed mspaconefotokem closed 1 year ago

mspaconefotokem commented 10 years ago

Hello Support,

First - much appreciate the tools you've provided and all of the effort put into making them work on a wide variety of systems.

Second - I'm having issues with the setup script. I've exactly followed the setup instructions and run the command and its variables in my CentOS 6.4 x64 machine. The issue I have is that the script requires sudo privileges - which we do not currently have implemented on our Linux machines here.

I don't suppose there is a difference between CentOS and Fedora which could be causing the issue - but that's why I write in. I did run the program as root, but got the message you wrote about NOT running the program as root.

Do you have any suggestions to get around this current issue?

Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated - thanks in advance.

-Mitch

I just tried it a root - and am getting the error "Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: rpmfusion-free".

I'm trying to install the rpmfusion-free RPM downloaded from their site - but am not getting other dependency issues that need to be resolved. Is anyone running this software on CentOS 6.4, that you are aware of?

I've since tried to install the software under Fedora 20 and got much further in the process. I'm now getting stuck on the following: fatal: unable to connect to github.com: github.com[0: 192.30.252.131]: errno=Connection timed out

rbenv: Failed to clone repository. Try again later bash: rbenv: command not found... bash: rbenv: command not found... bash: rbenv: command not found... rbenv: Command 'rbenv' not found

Which I believe is an internet issue here. I'm able to actually ping github.com, but If I know what's going on, this installer is attempting to communicate w/ github via SSH or some other protocol over a port other than 80. This company blocks this.

Hi, thanks for the feedback. This issue sailed in under the radar, sorry for letting you hang there.

Yes, the setup depends on having sudo. If you don't have that and other options (like running it in a supported OS distribution) fail too you could try a manual installation:

Start with installing these packages from your distribution's package manager:

make automake gcc gcc-c++ wget libxslt-devel expat-devel xmlsec1 xmlsec1-openssl readline-devel zlib-devel openssl-devel ImageMagick mplayer sox git libtiff-devel libpng-devel

Once that's out of the way we'll take it from there.
