Thanks so much Diego, it's very much appreciated!!! -Rich

Just a quick heads up, this is occurring again on 7.50.  It's the same thing, the rpm requires /usr/bin/sed and there is no /usr/bin/sed, it's installed in /bin/sed on CentOS 7.x.  The pandorafms rpm is not being built with the correct system requirements.  This is really becoming an issue for our upgrade process.  I cannot use the tarball for the automatic upgrades.

At this point, the only solution I've found is to backup the config file, completely remove the pandora agent, do the typical upgrade and then reinstall pandora and restore the config file.  Here's an example of what I'm seeing today:

# yum upgrade pandorafms_agent_unix sed

You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

and it persists already since 3 o 4 minor versions..

The problem arises only on the upgrade of already installed rpm.

Hello,

I regret that the problem persists, I think it is possible to solve it by creating a symbolic link since it seems that the sed path does not correspond to the one the agent installer is looking for.

Basically try to create the symbolic link "/usr/bin/sed" that redirects you to "/usr/sed" which is where I suspect you have this dependency.

Greetings
Diego

I just did this on one of our Centos 7.x boxes.  Here's what I saw:

In the past I've tried creating a symbolic link, but unsuccessfully.  In this case on the centos 7.8.2003 box, the file exists.

Greetings,

We are dedicating great efforts to avoid this type of error that "reappears".  Currently, the QA team and members of other departments are reviewing all the functionalities and their possible cases (which includes the installation and update of agents in different operating systems), so that they do not happen in the new version 750 and later versions. We hope that the problem they are suffering from will not happen again. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Greetings
Diego

Hello Diego,
actually we are continue to note this problem even with 750:

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Package: pandorafms_agent_unix-7.0NG.750-201111.x86_64 (artica_pandorafms)

Please update us from which version of agent for CentOS the problem will be solved.
Thanks in advance,

[hbh154]

FYI

Same issue presenting itself for 7.51

[Diego.M]

Greetings,

With the 752 update the problem should not happen again as the requirement to have sed installed to run the agent has been removed. We expect the 752 release to be next Monday.

Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience caused by this bug.
Diego

[JackRM]

I confirm that the bug has been finaly resolved.
Big thanks for the support and maintaning this great piece of software !!
