I'm installing vcloud director 1.5.1 on a redhat 2.6.32.
When I run the installer many prerequisites are requested: libxdmpc, libc.so.6, libfreebl3.so .....over and over
Im'not a linux guy so my question can be a wrong question but:
there's a way to install all the vcloud director prereq with just one (or fiew) installation ?
Thnaks in advance and regards
I think, you should refer to vCloud 1.5 document first, then tick and choose to install below pre-requisites all together during redhat installation:
alsa-lib libICE module-init-tools
bash libSM net-tools
chkconfig libstdc pciutils
coreutils libX11 procps
findutils libXau redhat-lsb
glibc libXdmcp sed
grep libXext tar
initscripts libXi which
krb5-libs libXt
libgcc libXtst

Thanks, I said that I'm not a linux guy....
you said: choose to install below pre-requisites all together during redhat installation.
How can I do it?
During the installation I have the option to choose between a basic server or db server or web server and so on....which one I have to choose to have all the prereq?
Another option during the install is to customize softare selection but going inside I do not see all the prereq for vcloud
When u install redhat, at package installation page, choose "customize software package" instead "default" as mentioned here page 22. It's individual packages and do not come as bundle one for vCloud. Sometime you need to download separately some of the packages from other repository. But most of the time, when you install development packages, kernel header & sources, most it already there.
You could also try to use "yum" which should be on Red Hat Enterprise Linux to install all the pre-requisites :
yum install <package-name1> <package-name2> <...>
I wrote some specific notes on how to create a specific linux master for VCD here : http://blog.tsugliani.fr/featured/create-your-own-virtual-vcloud-lab-part-1/
Hope this helps,
Solved installing the redhat, choosong "customize software package" and addingdevelopment packages, kernel header & sources
is very helpful.
Thanks
