ZMikko-Pekka,
This is interesting as I have not been able to reproduce this.
Fo-postinstall completes with errors due to the package agent not
finding libextractor. I have tried a fix for that and it didn't seem to
work.
I am really replying to say that you might be able to get the copyright
agent working by doing the following:
1. stop the scheduler: sudo /etc/init.d/fossology stop
2. Run the scheduler in selftest mode: sudo
/usr/lib/fossology/fossology-scheduler -t -L stdout. In the output you
should see that copyright complains about the db table not being there
and then says it will create it.
3. Restart the scheduler: sudo /etc/init.d/fossology start
That might be your problem and that might fix it. Hope that helps.

Hi all,
We have also been successful in installing and using Fossology 1.2 pr2
in Ubuntu 10.04. If it helps, here is a very brief outline of what we did:
1) Installed fresh Ubuntu 10.04 desktop version;
2) Checked-out Fossology source from svn site: "svn co
https://fossology.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/fossology/tags/1.2.0~rc2/";;
3) Followed the install procedure described in file INSTALL,
running all commands as sudo (did not adjust kernel shmmax) until
fo-postinstall exited after some errors;
4) Concluded that that the errors were related to PHP5, so we
installed the following packages using apt-get install: php5,
php5-pgsql, php-pear libapache2-mod-php5, php5-cli;
5) Ran fo-postinstall again, started the scheduler with
"/etc/init.d/Fossology start" and started using Fossology.
Since then we have been using that installation. The copyright task
does not finish, but I have understood that the issue is a known bug.
Regards,
Mikko-Pekka Partanen

Gurbax,
I have good news. FOSSology appears to be working fine on 8.04. We
got some good comments on the mailing list for 10.04 and I'll be
following up on those. In the mean time, lets' get you going on
FOSSology 1.2.0 on 8.04.
Here are the steps I followed:
1. Make sure my os was up to date: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get
upgrade
2. Added the fossology repository into the sources.list file for apt:
# FOSSology 1.2.0
deb http://fossology.org/debian/lenny-backports/1.2.0-1 ./
3. Configured my system as per the INSTALL doc:
- kernel
- postgres
- php
- apache (use the path /usr/share/fossology/www instead of
/usr/local/share)
4. update again: sudo apt-get update
5. Installed fossology: sudo apt-get install fossology,
the packages cannot be authenticated... install them anyway.
It should install just fine, create a scheduler.conf file for you and
start the scheduler.
By going to: http://<your-machine.domain>/repo/ you should see the
fossology login screen.
I'll be around on Friday till about 1pm. Please let me know how it
goes. Best of luck with your work.
