There should be an installation log somewhere.

Can you find it and see what the error really is?

I'm getting the same error in /var/log/eFa/build.log using the default build script, looks like a missing / updated / NOT updated public key somewhere:

Code: Select all

Downloading packages:
warning: /var/cache/yum/x86_64/7/eFa4/packages/postfix_eFa-3.3.0-1.eFa.el7.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 108ef6b6: NOKEY

Public key for postfix_eFa-3.3.0-1.eFa.el7.x86_64.rpm is not installed
ERROR: eFa4 failed to install
This is a brand new OS install - my Hyper-V template I'd prepared for shawn started throwing errors, so I built a new clean VM on Centos 7 Minimal 1908.

I noted that rpm was failing to validate the eFa4 package (rpm -K ...) - so I've manually imported the eFa key using the command from the script:

Code: Select all

rpm --import https://mirrors.efa-project.org/rpm/eFa4/RPM-GPG-KEY-eFa-Project
Now, the package validates and the install completes. I don't know why - I haven't dug through the script - but at least that got me over the hump.

Just out of curiosity, was wget installed? I wonder if we need to to use the rpm --import command instead in the script.
