Scalix Forums

I am attempting to install Scalix 11.0.4 community on a RHES4 server. Everything goes fine at first, then I receive an error during the "postgresql configuration" portion of the install.

Configuring PostgreSQL...
Fatal error occured: Msg: An error occurred configuring Web applications -- check the log for errors.

A check of the scalix-installer log shows...
2007-06-05 14:10:56,289 WARNING Could not determine PostgreSQL whitelist, OK.
2007-06-05 14:11:00,809 INFO Configuring PostgreSQL...
2007-06-05 14:11:04,271 ERROR Operation failed: Failed to initialize the PostgreSQL database.

I have found several posts on these forums regarding this problem. Some say it's been fixed. Other's say it exists still, but give no solution. One said "it's in the faq" but I certainly don't see it. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

The postgresql whitelist is the list of IP addresses from which
postgesql will accept connections. We configure this to include
only 'the' IP address of the local machine by default. The observant
here will notice that no machine actually has only one IP address
(all hosts have at least 127.0.0.1 + one physical address, and possibly
several more). So...my guess is that something went wrong with the
code that tries to determine which IP address to use.

One thing that I'd be interested in knowing is : does the install actually fail ?
If it succeeds then you can probably just edit the postgresql configuration manually
to fix the problem.

No, the scalix-postgresql service won't start, /var/opt/scalix/n1/postgres/data/PG_VERSION: No such file or directory

Plus, the db is one of the first items to get configured by the install script, so if it stops on the db, the rest don't get done.

Any other ideas?

Thanks for your assistance.
