Installation problems with Cloud Linux

[j.farncomb]

Hey guys,

Ive been trying to install Cloud Linux on CentOS 5.6 following the instructions. Basically it all worked fine until I got to checking for LVE in WHM.

Some information on where things are currently at:

uname -a
Linux Server 2.6.18-194.32.1.el5 #1 SMP Wed Jan 5 17:53:09 EST 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

cat /etc/redhat-release
CloudLinux Server release 5.6

rpm -qa|grep lve
Outputs nothing

I have tried to rerun centos2cl and get the following:

Installing lve...
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror

Error getting repository data for cloudlinux-i386-server-5, repository not found
New cPanel installed, no extra packages needed
!!!Important: Memory limits are disabled by default.
To enable memory limits, please run:
# lvectl ubc enable --save

-bash: lvectl: command not found

Googling the error results in no help.

Ive rebooted after running sh centos2cl -k like it said, and I do have a valid license purchased through cPanel for the servers IP address.

Ive tried plenty of things like yum install cpanel-lve, yum install cpanel-lvemanager, basically anything I could google but none helped, all result in saying that there is no such package.

Ive also recompiled apache through WHMs easy apache as I read this was required for mod_hostinglimits, I am assuming this is done is there anyway I can check the module is there? It doesn appear in httpd -l

Not sure if related, while running sh cpanel2cl -k I noticed that the repositories were all 64 bit?

Any help would be great, thanks.

What is the output of:
rpm -qa|grep lve
/usr/sbin/rhn_check

[j.farncomb]

rpm -qa|grep lve - this outputs nothing, so its as if it isn actually installed yet. It still says cloud linux in the redhat-release and in WHM though.

/usr/sbin/rhn_check - this doesn seem to exist.

[iseletsk]

Could you give complete output of cpanel2cl -k
Also, feel free to contact our support -- we would be happy to help.

[iseletsk]

Could you plz show me content of /etc/yum.conf
I think there is yum* or something similar there, preventing yum-rhn-plugin from being installed.

[j.farncomb]

[main]
exclude=apache* bind-chroot courier* dovecot* exim* filesystem httpd* mod_ssl* mysql* nsd* perl* php* proftpd* pure-ftpd* ruby* spamassassin* squirrelmail* yum*

# Note: yum-RHN-plugin doesn honor this.
metadata_expire=1h

installonly_limit = 5

# PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo
# in /etc/yum.repos.d

[iseletsk]

Please, remove yum* from exclude line, and try again. That should help it.

[j.farncomb]

Thats much better looking, it actually tried to install lots of stuff. The server registered, and then..

Complete!
Registering... Profilename: servername
Success
Installing lve...
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, rhnplugin

Error getting repository data for cloudlinux-i386-serv, repository not found

Same as before? Or is that fine and I should reboot?

[iseletsk]

Please, try to do following:
/etc/rpm/platform should be created with line

i686-redhat-linux

Then re-run install script.

[j.farncomb]

It looks like it already had this there:

[/etc/rpm]# cat platform
i686-redhat-linux

[iseletsk]

I guess we would need access to the server Could you contact our support?

[j.farncomb]

No problem, ticket submitted thanks for the help. 8)

[j.farncomb]

Issue seems to be resolved, I tried the exact same process again and it just worked, like the repo was suddenly available - all solved.
