Tonight I had a client get a new mail server, not a huge deal, but I ran into some weird issues with the installer. I've done this before, so I'm pretty sure I understand what's going on ... =)
Here's what I've done:
1) Installed base system (CentOS 5) using same hostname, ip, etc. and restored *JUST* /var/opt/scalix/ml (since node is "mail")
2) Installed Scalix 11.4.2.4620
3) Ran into problems!
The install went okay and log shows the following:
Code: Select all
~]# grep 'ERROR' /var/log/scalix-installer-20081126.log
2008-11-26 19:24:43,896 ERROR Restarting Apache using /etc/init.d/httpd restart -- failed with error code 1; results:
2008-11-26 19:24:43,896 ERROR Stopping httpd: [ OK ]
2008-11-26 19:24:43,896 ERROR Starting httpd: httpd: Syntax error on line 210 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/httpd/conf.d/scalix-web-client.conf: No such file or directory
What's weird is that several files are missing from the install. This is what I've found so far:
* /etc/opt/scalix/config
* Entire /opt/scalix/global
If I try to login to SAC, I get the infamous "Could not fetch server list" message.
So I've restored /opt/scalix/global and re-created the symlink to /etc/opt/scalix/config and restarted everything, and am still unable to login.
Lastly, I was getting version mismatch errors, so I corrected that by updating /var/opt/scalix/ml/s/sys/version to say "11.4.2.12068"
Did I go about restoring this server incorrectly? I did this on an 11.3 install for a different client not too long ago and didn't run into any issues.
Any other ideas?
Thanks!
