Install all e-smith/smeserver packages on EL6
These are just my notes to get a EL6 system booting with all the e-smith and smeserver packages installed. As soon as I get it to boot, I'll put this info into contribs.org wiki.
- Start from a minimal el6 installation (I just installed a few utilities like htop, screen, rsync, vim, openssh-clients etc…)
- Disable graphical boot, it will be easier to see what's going on (and turn off selinux at kernel level, just to be sure)
sed -i -e 's/rhgb quiet/selinux=0/g' /boot/grub/menu.lst
- Disable SELinux:
sed -i -e 's/SELINUX=.*/SELINUX=disabled/g' /etc/sysconfig/selinux
- Remove selinux-policy-targeted and authconfig, they conflict with some e-smith/smeserver packages
yum remove selinux-policy-targeted authconfig
- Enable the EPEL repo
rpm -Uvh http://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
- Enable the ATrpms repo
rpm -Uvh http://dl.atrpms.net/el6-x86_64/atrpms/stable/atrpms-repo-6-6.el6.x86_64.rpm
- Enable RPMForge
rpm -Uvh http://pkgs.repoforge.org/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm
- Configure SME repository (EL5 version for now)

- import SME's GPG key
rpm --import http://sme-mirror.firewall-services.com/releases/8/smeos/x86_64/RPM-GPG-KEY-SMEServer
- install yum-plugin-priorities
yum install yum-plugin-priorities
- Configure yum priorities
- Set the base, updates and extras repo in /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo a high priority (respectivly 50, 40, 50)
[...] [base] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6 priority=50 #released updates [updates] name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=updates #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6 priority=40 #additional packages that may be useful [extras] name=CentOS-$releasever - Extras mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=extras #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/extras/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6 priority=50 [...]
- Set Epel to a priority of 60 in /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo
[epel] name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 6 - $basearch #baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/$basearch mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-6&arch=$basearch failovermethod=priority enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6 priority=60
- Set RPMForge to a priority of 65 in /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo
[rpmforge] name = RHEL $releasever - RPMforge.net - dag baseurl = http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el6/en/$basearch/rpmforge mirrorlist = http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el6/en/mirrors-rpmforge #mirrorlist = file:///etc/yum.repos.d/mirrors-rpmforge enabled = 1 protect = 0 gpgkey = file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmforge-dag gpgcheck = 1 priority=65
- Set atrpms to priority of 70 in /etc/yum.repos.d/atrpms.repo
[atrpms] name=Red Hat Enterprise Linux $releasever - $basearch - ATrpms failovermethod=priority baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/el$releasever-$basearch/atrpms/stable enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-atrpms priority=70
- Now, a few packages have to be installed manually without dependancy check:
rpm -Uvh --nodeps http://sme-mirror.firewall-services.com/releases/8/smeupdates/x86_64/RPMS/smeserver-yum-2.2.0-20.el5.sme.noarch.rpm rpm -Uvh --nodeps http://sme-mirror.firewall-services.com/releases/8/smeupdates/x86_64/RPMS/e-smith-samba-2.2.0-49.el5.sme.noarch.rpm rpm -Uvh --nodeps http://sme-mirror.firewall-services.com/releases/8/smeos/x86_64/SME/e-smith-test-2.2.0-1.el5.sme.noarch.rpm
- Two perl package need to be installed manually with sme and epel repo disabled (I need to figure out why repo priority doesn't fix this)
yum install perl-Razor-Agent perl-Data-UUID --disablerepo=sme\* --disablerepo=epel
- Now, you should be ready to install e-smith-base. For me, this pulls 222 packages (166MB). For some reason, the GPGKey is not recognized, so just run yum with –nogpgcheck
yum --nogpgcheck install e-smith-base
- Now install all the remaining e-smith/smeserver packages
yum --nogpgcheck install e-smith\* smeserver\*
It should install the following packages and their dependancies:
e-smith e-smith-LPRng e-smith-apache e-smith-backup e-smith-devtools e-smith-dynamicdns-dyndns e-smith-dynamicdns-dyndns.org e-smith-dynamicdns-tzo e-smith-dynamicdns-yi e-smith-flexbackup e-smith-horde e-smith-hosts e-smith-imp e-smith-ingo e-smith-ldap e-smith-lib-compspec e-smith-mysql e-smith-ntp e-smith-oidentd e-smith-openssh e-smith-php e-smith-pptpd e-smith-proftpd e-smith-proxy e-smith-qmailanalog e-smith-quota e-smith-radiusd e-smith-turba e-smith-viewlogfiles smeserver-release
- Now install samba-client (e-smith-samba has been installed manually without dep check, otherwise it would have pulled samba3x package instead of samba)
yum install samba-client
- We've almost finished, we just have to replace upstart with the good old SysVinit, because upstart doesn't support the custom runlevel 7 SME uses
rpm -e --nodeps upstart sysvinit-tools rpm -Uvh http://sme-mirror.firewall-services.com/releases/8/smeos/x86_64/SME/SysVinit-2.86-17.el5.x86_64.rpm
- We need to copy some perl modules to a new directory, because @INC has changed in EL6:
cp -a /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/esmith/ /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/
- We also need to create a new service entry in the DB, because the standard syslog package is now rsyslog:
/sbin/e-smith/db configuration set rsyslog service status enabled cp -a /etc/rc7.d/S05syslog /etc/rc7.d/S05rsyslog
- We can now try to post-upgrade
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade
- And reboot. Unfortunatly, I wasn't able to reboot properly at this stage, because of the upstart → SysVinit transition (the error message is “/dev/initctl: No such file or directory”) so I had to destroy the VM completly
Ok, so the system should now boot, but is really not usable, after a quick look, at least the following doesn't work as expected:
- The console on the first boot don't really work. It asks for the admin password (and BTW the password appears in cleartext) but it's all
- No network interfaces are detected by the console menu (because kudzu is not installed, only available in SME repo, and require an older python which conflicts with the the one from EL6)
- slapd won't start
- httpd won't start
- squid won't start
- manually running expand-template has no effect (and no error message is printed). But signal-event seems to work (files get expanded and services restarted)
- as the network interface are not configured, all the services which requires the internel IP (or the external one) in their config (at least sshd squid and dnscache) won't start
- even if we manually add 0.0.0.0 after the ListenAddress line in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, we cannot connect using SSH (the daemon is running, but from a computer on the same network, I get a ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host error)
- qpsmtpd won't start (can't locate Qpsmtpd/TcpServer.pm in @INC)
- There's probably a lot more which is not working
