I am attempting to install the Fossology <http://fossology.org/> OSS license analysis software on a server running Ubuntu Linux and PostgreSQL. I have gotten to the point where I am at the final install command, and I get an error on a "dbcheck" program that says:
# Checking database connectivity ERROR: Unable to connect to the database Connection string: 'dbname=fossology host=localhost user=fossy password=fossy' Connection status: '1' ERROR: Failed to open database ERROR: Database not configured. Check /usr/local/share/fossology/dbconnect/fossology then re-run the install. When I cat the file it looks like: dbname=fossology; host=localhost; user=fossy; password=fossy; No where in the instructions has it asked me to "configure" the DB except for a few config files that I had to alter: I changed the /etc/postgresql/8.1/main/pg_hba.conf file to read: #local all postgres ident sameuser local all all trust Then I restarted the server with the command: /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.1restart It restarted fine. Then tried to run the ./install.sh -f again And I got the same "Database not configured" error again. Other info that might be relevant: /etc/passwd contains the following new entries: fosstest:x:1000:1000:fosstest,,,:/home/fosstest:/bin/bash <= main system user postgres:x:109:120:PostgreSQL administrator,,,:/var/lib/postgresql:/bin/bash fossy:x:1001:1001:FOSSology:/srv/fossology:/bin/bash (used to be /bin/false but I changed it to /bin/bash in the hopes that it would work) <= password is fossy Thanks in advance for your help. Detailed config info can be provided to anyone wishing to help me. Thank you! -- Kurt Schroeder [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://kurtandsandy.blogspot.com
