All I'd like to do is to install Scalix Community Edition 10.0.1 for evaluation purposes with 2 (two) mailboxes, but I keep running into installation issues.

I have SuSE 10.0 running on a 256MB laptop (should do for evaluation purposes)

Code: Select all

# cat /etc/SuSE-release
SUSE LINUX 10.0 (i586)
VERSION = 10.0
ibm:/usr/local/scalix/scalix-core-intel-suse-10.0.1 # 

# uname -a
Linux ibm 2.6.13-15-default #1 Tue Sep 13 14:56:15 UTC 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

# rpm -qa | grep python
python-2.4.1-3
python-xml-2.4.1-3
kdebindings3-python-3.4.2-8

Running ./scalix-installer --warnonly

a)warns that I am trying to install on an unsupported platform:

Code: Select all

Error: unsupported OS release: SUSE LINUX 10.0 (i586) on i386

b) only offers the following packages for installation:

Code: Select all

-> Choose the directory where the Scalix packages you intend to install reside [/usr/local/scalix/scalix-core-intel-suse-10.0.1/software/scalix_server]: 
Searching directory for latest Scalix packages...    

Install the following components:
  * Scalix Web Access
    (version 10.0.1.6)
  * Scalix Administration Console
    (version 10.0.1.21)
  * Scalix Remote Execution Service
    (version 10.0.1.21)

Please choose one or more components to install:
[1] Scalix Web Access
[2] Scalix Administration Console
[3] Scalix Remote Execution Service
-> Please enter comma-separated list of numbers [1,2,3]:

although scalix-server-10.0.1.3-1.suse100.i586.rpm is accessible in the scalix_server directory.

Any help is very much appreciated! Thanks!

We have only tested and therefore only support the OSS version of SuSE 10.0 at this time, not the professional version, which i assume you're using.

However, if you search this forum, you'll find what you need to change in your /etc/SuSE-release file to let the installer run through.

Cheers,
