Make sure zenoss is stopped > zenoss stop 2. Remove contents of the zenhome directory > rm -rf $ZENHOME/* 3. Remove the directory you unzipped/untarred from the tarball. 4. In mysql drop the events database mysql> drop database events; Before you do all that you might want to take a look at zenbuild.log. If the events db didn't get created you might have a problem with the mysql username/password you specified during the install. To test you can try building the events db from the command line. Use the same mysql username/password that you specify during the zenoss install: > mysqladmin -u<username> -p<password> create events > mysql -u<username> -p<password> events < $ZENHOME/Products/ ZenEvents/db/zenevents.sql -jason On Feb 13, 2007, at 2:02 PM, W.
