Some how to?

I never had problems with NS 6.x.

You basically start a CentOS droplet, then follow the manual:
http://docs.nethserver.org/en/v7a/installation.html#install-on-centos

Can you please share your problem?

jackyes · March 15, 2016, 8:35am

No problem with 6.7 for me…only a NS 7 problem…

i have crate a droplet with centos 7.2 x64
yum localinstall -y http://mirror.nethserver.org/nethserver/nethserver-release-7.rpm
nethserver-install

afther that the system freeze on:

after 10+ minuts i can’t connect to ssh anymore.
using the command line interface on digital ocean i reboot it.
No connection from external.
from the web console i can login.

Could you paste ip addr output before step 2? Let’s see DO configuration for c7…

tips for this problem ?

davidep · March 17, 2016, 8:56am

I see there are two IPs for eth0. @giacomo do you have any idea?

Could you paste also db networks show output?

Are there any ERROR or FAIL lines into /var/log/messages?

After NS7 install from console:

after ssh freeze i can only access the web console:

I can reproduce the installation but I have no time to try fixing it.
Davide and me took a quick look: maybe the problem is the machine doesn’t have a valid domain name.

Before executing nethserver-install, try to set the hostname:

hostnamectl set-hostname test.mydomain.com

jackyes · March 17, 2016, 11:03am

Works!! Thank you!!

davidep · March 18, 2016, 5:12pm

Hi @jackyes could you check if this pull request fixes the problem?

To test it, before executing nethserver install run the following command:



curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DavidePrincipi/nethserver-base/init-hostname/root/etc/e-smith/events/actions/nethserver-base-initialize-db > /etc/e-smith/events/actions/nethserver-base-initialize-db

[root@centos-2gb-nyc3-01 ~]# curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DavidePrincipi/nethserver-base/init-hostname/root/etc/e-smith/events/actions/nethserver-base-initialize-db > /etc/e-smith/events/actions/nethserver-base-initialize-db
-bash: /etc/e-smith/events/actions/nethserver-base-initialize-db: No such file or directory

davidep · March 18, 2016, 7:36pm

You’re right, my mistake

We must execute that command during nethserver-install… Perhaps by adding it before this line…

jackyes · March 18, 2016, 7:46pm

works!!!
