Title: Install error with Initial_Config_Core.sh
Post by: archived on November 16, 2005, 12:07:27 pm
Hi,

I've a problem when installing Pluto Core from the Kick Start CD (v2.0.0.32), during the first reboot (after debian installation).
The PC is not connected to internet, it's an offline installation.

When the Initial_Config_Core.sh script is executed, the "aptitude -y -f install pluto-dcerouter" command failed with the following message :

Code: [Select]
The following package have unmet dependencies:
pluto-dcerouter: Depends : pluto-website-admin (>=2.0.0.32) but it is not installable
                 Depends : pluto-website-admin (<2.0.0.33) but it is not installable



The installation is interrupted, the system is rebooted and I've the following message :
Code: [Select]
INIT: cannot execute "/usr/pluto/bin/Report_DCERouter_Status.sh"


Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot?

Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm new in this forum and Linux beginner too
I've the same problem as 'caerwent'.
After reboot and after asked me password, name, type of inst(Core/hybrid)
the system halt with the message:
INIT: cannot execute "/usr/pluto/bin/Report_DCERouter_Status.sh"
This message is repeated for ten rows and then another message like this:
INIT: Id "1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
After about five minutes restart with above messages.

Thanks for Your help

That's odd. pluto-admin-website package should actually be on that disc. If it's not, then we have a problem.

Just checked and it's in there. Did the CD copy the packages right to the hard drive?

You can try typing "aptitude install pluto-dcerouter" in a console (press Alt+F2 to get the 2nd one since the 1st one doesn't allow you any login). Login as root with the password you chose when asked. If it says the same, try "aptitude install pluto-website-admin" which should actually say what it doesn't like.

If you get that message it means the system didn't actually install (something went wrong in the 2nd stage install, very wrong).

Hi,
i have the same problem. I´have tried different Pc´s and Network Adapter. The result is always the same (with or without Internet-Connection).
The hint from Radu to install pluto dceroute and website manually
had no effect.
I think there is a problem with the network configuration.
My old Pluto installed itself with a second internal net .
Now there is only et0  
I hope there is a solution.
Thanks
Peter

I have tried with 2 PC (one with 2 network cards, the other with only one) and I have the same problem on both PC. My network configuration is with a static IP address, without internet connection.

When I try typing aptitude install pluto-dcerouter, the same error message appears.
When I try typing aptitude -y -f install pluto-website-admin,  I have a similar error but with the depends pluto-updatemedia

Finally when I try typing aptitude -y -f install pluto-updatemedia,  I have a similar error but with the depends libid3-3.8.3 (which is a virtual package ???!!!)

And the following files exist on the hard drive (in directory  /usr/pluto/deb-cache/dists/sarge/main/binary-i386)

libidl0_0.8.5-1_i386.deb
libid3tag0_0.15.1b-4.1_386.deb
libidn11_0.5.13-1.0_i386.deb
pluto-website-admin_2.0.0.32_i386.deb
pluto-website-support_2.0.0.32_i386.deb
pluto-media-database_2.0.0.32_i386.deb
pluto-pluto-media-db_2.0.0.32_i386.deb
pluto-updatemedia_2.0.0.32_i386.deb

Thanks for information.
I have checked all files on the CD using the MD5 file on this CD and all of them were OK.
But I'll make a new CD with lower speed and I'll post on this topic if it troubleshoots the problem in my case...

I believe that you had exactly the same problems I had, i.e. no package installation. See

to see how I solved it ;)

Unfortunately I cannot have Internet connection for the moment... The error occurs with the offline installation even after modify the Initial_Config_Core.sh to comment the packages sources (I've kept only the offline source).

Rewriting Cd with a lower speed doesn't troubleshoot the problem in my case...

Someone has already installed Pluto in offline mode with success ???

I don't understand : the libid3-3.8.3 package is needed but I cannot find a corresponding file (libid3-3.8.3_i386.deb for exemple) on the Cd ?


Anymore suggestions ?
Title: Offline install
Post by: archived on November 21, 2005, 12:51:28 pm
I'm not sure that you can do an offline install.
It didn't work in my case anyway, and the symptoms I had are *exactly* what you described in your first post, because /usr/pluto/bin does not exist unless you do an online install, or so I believe.

This is only MHO, the mods can answer to this one with certainty.
Title: Pluto is running!!!!
Post by: archived on November 22, 2005, 04:41:39 pm
Hi
my Pluto is up and running.......
After a week of test, I tried everything, hints from vary users and Pluto supporter. This morning without any hardware modify, kick start CD is the same as a week ago, PC on the second boot started to download modules from Pluto site and finally was up and run.
The only things I've made is to try and retry to set DHCP and/or change cable connections in the PC and ADSL router!!!
I think but I'm not sure, as Chys wrote in a post, that isn't possible to do an offline install.
Now I'm curious to try the system, but I'm very satisfied.

Thanks

We're aiming at a offline install disc. Currently the disc should work offline, with the drawback that it will also try the net, which will cause you a great deal of delay, but in the end it should work offline.

I've waited for a long time but after several timeouts the installation is interrupted with an error.

I've finally an internet connection, modified the installation script as described by chyc to configure a proxy and now Pluto is installed and runs.

Thanks to all of you for your suggestions.

I'm having this exact problem, except modifying the script as suggested didnt solve it. I am connected to the internet, and i'm sure the connection is working properly.

just to make sure i did this right, i modified the Initial_Config_Core.sh, commenting out the Acquire lines. Then i removed the 30pluto file from apt.conf.d.

is this correct? is there anything else i can try. thanks.

alright, so i got around the install issue with aptitude update and aptitude dist-upgrade before trying to install pluto-dcerouter. everything seems to be installed and starting up now but when i get to the menu screen there is a blinking message: "Not responding on socket. Probably dead".

did something go wrong during the install? is there a script i can run to start the dcerouter?

thanks

if you installed Pluto with our scripts, it should be working. Just installing pluto-dcerouter doesn't configure the installation. There is something extra in the installation scripts to do that.

I have a similar problem when pluto tries to boot for the firs time i get INIT: cannot execute "/usr/pluto/bin/Report_DCERouter_Status.sh"

Hi jason
how described in a post above I'd the same problem.
I used kick start CD 2.0.0.32 without any change ( I tried before a lot a suggestions in the forum without results) . Really I don't know why but suddenly pluto started (I'm a newbie in Linux too). I think my  was a DHCP conflict, check yours system.
Hope this is useful for you

radu.c,

relating to my issue above (posted as Guest, sorry), I took the following install steps before seeing the error message:

1. Install from kickstart CD. this gave me the initial errors.
2. make the fixes to the script as recommended by chyc, did an update, and got pluto-dcerouter to install.
3. reboot. this got rid of the errors and got me to the main menu with the blinking socket error.

I guess my problem is that the install didnt have a chance to complete the first time, so something didnt get configured. is there a configuration script I could run, or do i have to modify the script and burn another kickstart cd?

thanks for the reply,
tim

I don't know if it could help you but the steps I followed to avoid errors during installation are:
1 - install from the kick start cd (I think pluto scripts are copied on hard drive but they aren't launched at the end of the installation process, they are launched during the first reboot),
2 - during the first boot choose maintenance mode in grub menu to avoid launching pluto scripts,
3 - modify your Initial_Config_Core.sh (comment all "Acquire" lines except for cache configuration and modify the first one with your proxy address/port if needed,
4 - reboot and choose default mode in grub menu

If you modify the scripts after the first reboot perhaps something is wrong after this reboot. In my case, modifying the script before the first reboot troubleshoots errors during pluto installation.
