Insight IQ 4.0 linux install issues

I downloaded and installed "install-insightiq-4.0.0.0049.sh" but insightIQ is unable to run properly. I populated /etc/isilon/insightiq.ini with the needed info and made sure that cache_dir exists and is writable.

OS: RHEL 6.8

Logs: /var/log/insightiq_stdio.log

Traceback (most recent call last):

Any ideas? thanks

    Hi gratchie,

    I'll be glad to help.

    Your timing is impeccable, as EMC has just released a MR update of InsightIQ.  See if you can download this new build:

    InsightIQ 4.0.1 is available as of Wednesday, 5/18, as a General Availability release. The release is available on Support Zone effective immediately.

    In the meantime, I think a while ago I ran into a similar issue as you did. It turned out that I didn't run the self-installation .sh file with sudo.  Could you verify?

    Thanks.

    the 4.0.1 release notes do not list any fixes, only a single change (dropping VAMI support). The list of know issues hasn't changed (modulo VAMI) -- what are we missing here? Btw, the InsightIQ Info Hub deserves an update, too.

    Cheers

    Thanks, Peter.

    I've contacted the team that updates the InfoHub spaces.

    Regarding v4.0.1, as far as I know, the fixes are very minor.  Personally I filed 3 tiny bugs against v4.0.0 (x-axis time don't display properly; CSV export time range row doesn't display properly; iiq_data_export for FSA fails when using directory filters).  Other than those minor fixes, I'm not aware of anything major.

    Hi Yan,

    I got confirmation that the defect you referenced is definitely fixed in v4.0.1.  We'll triage and see if an update to the release notes is needed.  Thanks for bringing this up!

    This error was hitting a number of customers in IIQ 4.0.0 (it would halt monitoring so pretty important issue):

    'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xc1 in position 73268: invalid start byte

    I was told that 4.0.1 fixes this issue but can't confirm with the existing release notes.
