Difficulties when installing a CM master on CentOS 7
When installing a master with the default parameters on Linux CentOS 7 x64 with a PostgreSQL database on the same device at the end of the installation, in the summary, the following error message can appear:
Changing configuration files...
awk: cmd. line:1: $1!="SSL" && $1 != "CertAuth" && $1 != "CertTrusted" && $1!="PAC" && $1!="ConnectionQueueMaxSize" $1!="Mode" && /^.*$/ {print}
awk: cmd. line:1: ^ syntax error
This error occurs on CentOS 7 x64 because the awk version is 4.0.2. On a CentOS 6.4 x64, the master installs without problems, because the awk version is 3.1.7.
Workaround:
- Open the file bmc-client-management-master-12_0_0.sh .
- Remove $1!="Mode" from the file.
- Start the master installation again.
Tip: For faster searching, add an asterisk to the end of your partial query. Example: cert*
