Re: [FOSSology] Installing Fossology

[Laser, Mary]

Hi Jeff,
Bob is out of the office today and he’s asked me to reply to your email.

Yes, in general, you need to install all dependencies (everything you listed 
below & more), tune the kernel, configure the applications (Postgres, apache, 
php).

For dependencies, there is a utility packaged with FOSSology called 
fo-installdeps 
(http://fossology.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fossology/tags/1.2.1/utils/fo-installdeps?revision=3505&view=markup)
 that should install everything you need.

We recognize our install process is much more complicated than it should be.  
We are trying to improve it with each new release.  Please feel free to write 
to the mailing list for additional help.

Mary

Could you verify the steps we would need to take to install a fresh install of 
Fossology. I looked at the fossology site for OEL ( aka Red hat ) and it seems 
to say the following


 1.  Install Libextractor , sleuth kit , ucl ,upx , unrar & cabextract – 
dependencies
 2.  Install postgresql & php ?
 3.  Install the rpm
 4.  Configure the kernel
 5.  Configure postgresql
 6.  Configure php

Is this the sequence you recommend ?

Regards

Jeff

Re: [FOSSology] Installing fossology on a Ubuntu karmic koala (9.10) machine

[Causey, William]

Hi Mary,

It looks like my issue is there seem to be two threads of fossology - I have 
two Scheduler.conf files.

The first is located at: /etc/fossology/Scheduler.conf
The second is at:/usr/local/etc/fossology/Scheduler.conf

I think this is what is causing the conflicts and I would expect there may also 
be some of the fossology 1.1.x that didn't get cleaned off and removed 
completely.  I've copied both versions of the Scheduler that you can review 
whether this is correct.

So at the present I'm thinking I may need to follow the steps given earlier:

1.   Stop the scheduler & db server
sudo /etc/init.d/fossology stop
sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql stop

2.   Remove the current install  (this will NOT remove the database or 
repository)
For package installs, use apt-get remove fossology  
For source installs, use fo-cleanold from the source tree

3.   Install FO 1.2.1 from sources using the steps outlined in the Ubuntu 
10.04 install guide. 
 


Thanks & Regards,

William

OK we have removed the database and have installed postgresql-8.3 and it

So when we run the fo-postinstall we get the following error at the end:

I have been using the term "source install" to refer to an installation done 
with the release source tarball available from sourceforge 
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/fossology/files/fossology/1.2.1/fossology-1.2.1.tar.gz/download).
  I will be more clear about this in the future.

Hi William,

Yes, you can use the following procedure to upgrade from 1.1.1 to 
1.2.1 on Ubuntu:


1. Stop the scheduler & db server

a. sudo /etc/init.d/fossology stop

b. sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql stop

2. Remove the current install  (this will NOT remove the database or 
repository)


a. For package installs, use apt-get remove fossology

b. For source installs, use fo-cleanold from the source tree

3. Install FO 1.2.1 from sources using the steps outlined in the 
Ubuntu 10.04 install guide 
<http://fossology.org/ubuntu10.04_install_guide>.


Mark - Please confirm or make corrections, as necessary.  If these 
instructions are correct, let’s post them to the website for future

Re: [FOSSology] Installing fossology on a Ubuntu karmic koala (9.10) machine

[Causey, William]

Hi Mark and Mary,

So just an update on fossology upgrade form 1.1.x to 1.2.1.

I was working with Gurbax to get this running on her Ubuntu machine and hadn't 
attempted any upgrade on my machine until this morning.  I think last week I 
modified my sources.list to include updates from fossology - as listed on the 
fossology website: http://fossology.org/install#upgrading_from_fossology_1.2.0.

So today I ran Update Manager on my Ubuntu machine and the 1.2.1 version of 
fossology and updates to postgresql 8.4 updates was included along with many 
more updates.  So this ran which required an reboot and after starting 
postgresql and then starting fossology everything came up and worked without 
any problems except it seems the data from my previous scans where lost with 
the postgresql patches to 8.4.  I think it will be OK as I can rescan the 
packages I previously scanned.

The version of fossology installed is FOSSology version 1.2.1~3507.

Thanks & Regards,
William

William,

The instructions below should work just fine.  I just tried the apt-get remove 
on a system.  Here is what I found:

sudo apt-get remove fossology, only removed the fossology package.  As a second 
step I did a sudo apt-get autoremove to remove the rest of the fossology 
packages.  This worked just fine.  The existing fossology db is still there 
with all the data, just the package got removed.  Just what we wanted.

Just in case it wasn't clear, if you want to remove source install files the 
fo-cleanold  util can be used.  It's in the utils directory of the sources.  DO 
NOT use the --delete-everything option!  It will remove your DB.  Just run it 
with no options.

sudo utils/fo-cleanold.

Please let us know how this worked.  You are the first person trying to upgrade 
from a  1.1.x release to a 1.2.1 release.

Hope this helps.

The general answer is that upgrades within the major version number (1 in 
this case) are supposed to work and if they don't it's a bug and you should 
report it. If the fossology team ever needs to break the database schema in 
incompatible ways, they will only do so in a major release. It might also 
be that the team decides to change the major version number without 
breaking things too. Either way hopefully there will be a way to go from 
1.x to 2.x, even if it involves some utility that converts your data to the 
new way of doing things.

See my other reply in this thread for a list of instructions on how to 
upgrade.

Your 'apt-get autoremove' likely removed postgres if fossology(which you 
removed) was the only thing resulting in a dependency on it.

Now that you are switching to doing an "upstream install" of fossology, you 
need to run the "utils/fo-installdeps" script to pull in the needed build 
and runtime dependencies.

I'm not sure what you were trying to say here, but to be clear: fo-cleanold 
is for removing upstream installs of fossology from the system. It won't 
remove your source tree(s) or package installs.

But plenty have done 1.1.x to 1.2.0 right? There shouldn't be anything in 
1.2.1 that would break that.

Some of this is unnecessary and confusing.
Here's a better list IMO:


How to upgrade a single system install
==

For debian package installs:
1) configure apt to point at the apt source of the new version for your 
distro version (may not even be needed depending on your situation)
2) apt-get upgrade
3) PROFIT!!

For upstream installs:
All steps as root
1) stop the scheduler using '/etc/init.d/fossology stop'
2) remove the fossology software (but not data)
 a) If you still have the build tree from the current installed version do 
"make uninstall"
 b) IF you don't have the build tree from the current installed version OR 
your current version is <1.0.0 OR you are lazy, THEN run 
"utils/fo-cleanold". (DO NOT add any options to fo-cleanold, you are just 
trying to remove the software, not the data.)
3) install the new version
 a) In the new source tree run "make;make install"
 b) run "/usr/local/lib/fossology/fo-postinstall"
4) start the scheduler using '/etc/init.d/fossology start'

NOTES:
* If you messed up an upstream install and want to start over, fo-cleanold 
has flags you can use to do that, but they will DELETE DATA so make sure 
you know what you are doing. Run 'fo-cleanold --help' for more info.
* Upgrading from an upstream install to a package install or vise versa is 
possible, but tricky. It is recommended that you stick with one or the 
other.



I don't know if rpm upgrades work or even if they are supposed to work, 
someone else will have to answer that.

And these instructions give you an upstream install, not packages. I just 
edited a little to explain that just rebuilding the packages is enough if 
people want to do that until proper packages are available.

I use 8.4, it works fine. Maybe the fossology developers should try it :)

Gurbax,

hmm, somehow, either postgresql got removed or is not running.  To start it:

sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql start

if it got removed:

8.3: sudo apt-get install postgresql-8.3 postgresql-server-dev-8.3
8.4: sudo apt-get install postgresql-8.4 postgresql-server-dev-8.4

If the install does not start postgres (it should), then start it as 
described above.


If you do reinstall postgres, then please remember to configure it as 
described in the INSTALL file, or fossology will not come up.  After 
configure, you have to restart postgres.


Hope that helps.



Mary, Mark,

We removed fossology with sudo apt-get remove fossology, then also ran the sudo

William,

The instructions below should work just fine.  I just tried the apt-get remove

sudo apt-get remove fossology, only removed the fossology package.  As a second 
step I did a sudo apt-get autoremove to remove the rest of the fossology

Re: [FOSSology] Installing fossology on a Ubuntu karmic koala (9.10) machine

[Laser, Mary]

Hi Gurbax,

Did you try to uninstall the previous (1.1.0) version of fossology?  If so, it 
does not appear to have worked.  Note the message in your log file in #2 below 
: Scheduler started.  Build version: 1.1.0, exported.

Error #1 is most likely a symptom of an incomplete uninstall/install.

Error #3 is a due to mis-configuration of Postgresql.  Note the HINT about the 
SHMMAX kernel parameter.

An incomplete uninstall of a package combined with a source install of 1.2.0 
will leave pieces of both versions on your system!  A very bad, mixed up 
configuration.  Please verify apt-get remove successfully removes the 1.1.0 
version before you try to install 1.2.1 from source.

machine

Hi Mary,

OK, so I think we'd rather use Ubuntu 10.04 but I have version 1.1.0 
(fossology) running on my Ubuntu machine (10.04), is there a way I can upgrade 
to 1.2.1 without removing the data I have collected already with the older 
version of fossology?  So I'd like to be able to run an update to pull the 
1.2.1 version and then upgrade my fossology to 1.2.1?  (I have postgresql 8.4 
running on my machine now with fossology 1.1.0).

Thanks & Regards,
William

Hi William,
I apologize for the miscommunication on our website.  The page was out of date 
and should not have stated that the latest version of fossology was available 
for ubuntu 9.10.   :(   (I have made the correction.)

We do not  have 1.2.1  packages for Ubuntu at this time.  The instructions for 
installing FO 1.2.1 from source on Ubuntu 
10.04<http://fossology.org/ubuntu10.04_install_guide> *should* work for Ubuntu 
9.10.  However, I don't know if this configuration was tested.

Mark - do you know?

Also, we have not tried or tested fossology using postgresql 8.4, yet.  You can 
be the first :)

Hi,

I attempted to follow the steps to install the latest version of fossology on 
Ubuntu karmic koala (9.10) that are given in the fossology website:
http://fossology.org/ubuntu

The problem is I expected to install the latest version 1.2.1 but it appeared 
that the version was 1.1.0 instead.  In addition to this instead of 
postgresql-8.4 being installed the version installed was postgresql-8.3.  We 
would like to use the latest version of fossology as we already have the 1.1.0 
running on another machine.

Thanks & Regards,
William
