OREON 1.3 installation

You can download compressor file on :http://www.oreon-project.org/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,53/

Take last version (at the moment, the 1.3).

Save it in /tmp

uncompress it

# tar xzf oreon-1.3.tar.gz

Now, you should have this directory

/tmp/oreon-1.2.2/

Execute installation ./install.sh, any questions asked

#./install.sh

Last packages to install

nmap installation: Tool for auto-detect in Oreon

# apt-get install nmap

Oreon graphic tool installation

# apt-get install librrds-perl libgd-gd2-perl wget

Perl tool installation for a few plugins

# apt-get install libnet-snmp-perl

Final Steps

Creat symbolic link between rrdtool directory.

# ln -s /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49/ /usr/local/rrdtool

This is very important part of installation process installing pear modules for web interface installation

#pear upgrade DB

If you get the error No handlers for No handlers for package.xml version 2.0 you need to upgrade pear with the following command

#pear upgrade PEAR-1.3.5

#pear upgrade PEAR

#pear install Date DB_DataObject Numbers_Roman HTML_Common HTML_QuickForm HTML_QuickForm_advmultiselect Archive_Tar Console_Getopt HTTP Image_Color Image_GraphViz Mail Mail_Mime Net_SMTP Net_Socket Net_Ping XML_RPC PEAR_PackageFileManager

If you get "No release with state equal to: 'stable' found for module name " then you need to install using the following command

#pear install --force Net_Traceroute Validate MDB2 Image_Graph Image_Canvas Auth_SASL HTML_Table Numbers_Words DB_DataObject_FormBuilder

So restart 3 services

# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

# /etc/init.d/mysql restart

# /etc/init.d/nagios restart
