Installation on Ubuntu

Hello,

 

To develop my first plugin for Jive, I want to install the application on my ubuntu desktop.  After few hours, I couldn't manage to get it installed.  Here is my installation procedure and errors I got during the installation.  Anyone went through these kind of issues?  Thanks in advance for your help.

 

Procedure:

- Download the .rpm

- Convert the .rpm with alien : alien - k --scripts jive_sbs_employee-3.0.3.SLES-10.i586

- Install the package : sudo dpkg -i jive-sbs_3.0.3-85364_i386.deb

 

Errors :

touch: cannot touch `/var/lock/subsys/jive-database': No such file or directory
Configuring scheduled database maintenance.

HTTPD configuration template not found. Expected at '/usr/local/jive/etc/httpd/sites/site.template'.

Re: Installation on Ubuntu

Hey there,

 

I have a feeling that this has to do with the conversion process. Can you please try running alien again with -d instead of -k? Let me know if that helps anyway, otherwise we'll dive deeper!

 

Thanks,

Brad
