Error on fresh install

[andreluizpr]

Hello all,

I just created a LightSail instance on AWS with CentOS 7 minimal. I updated the OS, installed the NetworkManager package and restarted the server.

Then I ran the following command: curl -sSL https://install.efa-project.org | bash

No errors happened and I restarted the machine. When reconnecting to the server, I started the first configuration and did it as I always did on other occasions. However when I finished and the system started to perform the tasks, I saw the following errors:

[eFa] - Starting MariaDB and Configuring
Dropping the database is potentially a very bad thing to do.
Any data stored in the database will be destroyed.

Do you really want to drop the 'test' database [y/N] Database "test" dropped

The installation was aborted. Is there any way to fix this? Is it possible to configure another version (like stable) that is not showing configuration errors? Any other references to follow with the installation?

Thanks

Andre

One of our mirrors must be behind. These issues have been fixed grrr...

Hi, I am trying to install EFA 4.0 and I have just received the same error. What do I do now? Can I re-launch the installation wizard (how?) and see if it connects to a working mirror?

Working on it. You can work around the issue for now by ensuring that NetworkManager is enabled prior to building.

Code: Select all

sudo systemctl enable NetworkManager
