Guys,

mibs.xml is a pretty big file to load. That said I did load it in the vmware image without it being too long. To skip it during the load just rename to different extention (mibs.skip).

I can comfirm this. The problem occurs when it's importing mibs.xml,
when I did it manually it took about 45 minutes (on a dual P3 850 MHz
w/640 MB RAM) and used about 900 MB on my /tmp.

Hello,

I saw in your other mail, that you already succeeded in instaling zenoss the
hard way ;-).
I had the same problems that you have, struggling for two days and I was able to track down the problem. While running install.sh, as someone already mentioned, the script stucks at "Loading initial Zenoss objects into the Zeo
database" or
$ZENHOME/bin/zenbuild -u $MYSQLUSER -p "$MYSQLPASS" 2>>zenbuild.log

I did `lsof -u zenoss', and found out that there are two suspicios items
in /tmp:
python 6313 zenoss 4u REG 9,0 0 7989 /tmp/tmpAsph77.tbuf (deleted) python 6313 zenoss 5u REG 9,0 20971520 8113 /tmp/tmpFKltig (deleted)

Running `df -h' continuously, shows my /tmp partition getting filled, although `ls' shows almost no files in it, and `du -hs /tmp' shows a very small usage. It turns out, that during install, zenbuild fills my / tmp partition(which is about 600MB), and the installation failes after all. I don't know how exactly, but I know that this is the problem. Resizing the partition to 1G did it. Maybe this is a bug, because with previous versions,
I have no problems at all during installation.


regards,
Dimitar
