Hi All,

Just stumbled apon Kontrollbase and would really want to use this. I'm running serveral Ubuntu 8.04 LTS servers with mysql v5.0.67, Apache v2.2.9, PHP5. I installed all the requiered perl mods but when trying to install Kontrollbase is stops with the error “Unable to locate XML/SimpleObject.pm prerequisite“

Googleing this error just reported one mention of a install doing makefile…

I (and other Ubuntu users) would really be helped with a clear descripition of the install on Ubuntu.

Thx in advance!

Grtz,

Ted

If you're getting that error you just need to install the XML-SimpleObject package. You can find it listed in the package repo here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/libxml-simpleobject-perl

apt-get install libxml-simpleobject-perl

Overall the installation process for Ubuntu is the same as Redhat – just replace the “yum install” commands with “apt-get install” commands. Apache / SSH  / SNMP / MYSQL setup is the same on each flavor of linux for Kontrollbase. 

Thank you for your reaction. It is running now

The next stop is to see actual data….I'll take a look at the manual.

Grtz,

Ted
