OpenManage Server Administrator installation issues on Linux

Question

Hello,

I am having a hard time to get beyond this first simple issue of getting OpenManage Server Administrator installed.

When I run sh srvadmin-install.sh I get the following error:

: command not found: line 31:
: command not found: line 33:
'rvadmin-install.sh: line 45: syntax error near unexpected token `{
'rvadmin-install.sh: line 45: `{

This issue has been plaguing me for the past 3 weeks and I have not yet found a solution.

- Regards,

Richard

Hi Chris, I am trying to install OpenManage 6.3 on RHEL4 64bit. When I run ./srvadmin-install.sh I get the following error: : No such file or directory

Richard,

There is a couple things it can be. First off what version Linux are you running, as well as what server is this going on, so we can verify the correct version is being used.

Also can you try making it executable and see if it completes. You can do this by running this command from root.

chmod+x srvadmin-install.sh

That makes the sh executable. Then run this command to launch the executable.

./srvadmin-install.sh

Thanks.

Did you perform the chmod+x srvadmin-install.sh? Any errors on running that?

That looks like the correct version. There are a couple different versions.

Is this the link you downloaded?

support.dell.com/.../format.aspx

If not then you may have downloaded the incorrect version.

The script already is already executable since it resides on a cifs share. I got the OMSA package from the Server Update Services DVD ISO.

Could you copy the file from the CIFS to the root and run it from there?

If not, when you run the command use the absolute path.

For example:

/mnt/server/path/to/omsa/srvadmin-install.sh

It sounds like it is running from the wrong location.
