Networkcheck on FC3

Postby straylight23 » Fri Mar 18, 2005 8:34 am

Hi all,
i am trying to install Scalix 9.2 eval on a Fedora Core 3 Box, but can not any further than nework.chek. This is the console-output when the installer is started with "--debug":

Code: Select all

DEBUG:root:WizardSystemCheck:debug mode True
DEBUG:root:WizardSystemCheck:We've checked already False and changed component selection False
INFO:merlin:System check start
ERROR:merlin:Operation failed: Network check failed -- Could not determine any IP addresses for this machine
ERROR:merlin:Operation failed: Network check failed -- IP address '192.168.212.25' associated with host name 'scalix.test-netz.de' in DNS cannot be confirmed as this host's IP address
INFO:merlin:Network interface is actually eth0
DEBUG:root:Checking DHCP for interface eth0
DEBUG:root:Checking sysconfig file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0  for DHCP settings
DEBUG:root:Server is not installed so using default scalix path

I have a running Bind9 on the same machine with a "test-netz.de" zone plus reverse. zone files are "test-netz.de.hosts":

Code: Select all

$ttl 38400
test-netz.de.   IN      SOA     fusie.test-netz.de thomas.creativ-consulting.de. (
                        1111132242
                        10800
                        3600
                        604800
                        38400 )
test-netz.de.   IN      NS      fusie.test-netz.de.
scalix.test-netz.de.    IN      A       192.168.212.25
mail.test-netz.de.      IN      CNAME   scalix.test-netz.de.
test-netz.de.   IN      MX      1 mail.test-netz.de.
fusie.test-netz.de.     IN      CNAME   scalix.test-netz.de.
scalix-default-mail.test-netz.de.       IN      CNAME   scalix.test-netz.de.

and "192.168.212.rev":

Code: Select all

$ttl 38400
212.168.192.in-addr.arpa.       IN      SOA     scalix.testz-netz.de. thomas.creativ-consulting.de. (
                        1111082765
                        10800
                        3600
                        604800
                        38400 )
212.168.192.in-addr.arpa.       IN      NS      scalix.test-netz.de.
25.212.168.192.in-addr.arpa.    IN      PTR     scalix.test-netz.de.

"/etc/hosts" is:

Code: Select all

127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain   localhost
192.168.212.25  scalix.test-netz.de scalix scalix-default-mail

Name resolution works alright.

Code: Select all

[root@scalix ~]# nslookup scalix.test-netz.de
Server:         192.168.212.25
Address:        192.168.212.25#53

Name:   scalix.test-netz.de
Address: 192.168.212.25

Code: Select all

[root@scalix ~]# nslookup 192.168.212.25
Server:         192.168.212.25
Address:        192.168.212.25#53

25.212.168.192.in-addr.arpa     name = scalix.test-netz.de.

What am i missing here?

TIA,
./Tom

It looks like you are running in a German-language environment. There is a known problem with the installer which is documented in the release notes. The installer does not handle a local language.

You need to run the installer as:

Code: Select all

LANG=C ./scalix-installer
