systemctl status gorgoned ● gorgoned.service - Centreon Gorgone Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/gorgoned.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sun 2023-10-08 16:04:29 UTC; 2s ago Process: 710 ExecStart=/usr/bin/perl /usr/bin/gorgoned $OPTIONS (code=exited, status=217/USER) Main PID: 710 (code=exited, status=217/USER) CPU: 8ms
Hi @Fanto your poller can contact the Centreon central server on HTPS?

but if i registre the poller (rasp pi too) everything is ok.
raspberry pi3 poller works fine at moment :)
Good morning @Laurent i had some issues installing centreon on my raspberry pi3. I installed debian 11 but the unattended.sh script fails with this error message:
E: Failed to fetch https://packages.centreon.com/apt-standard-23.10-unstable/pool/perl-libssh-session-arm64/libssh-session-perl_0.8-2_arm64.deb 404 [IP: 52.49.160.245 443] E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing? 2023-10-31 07:03:34+00:00 - ERROR - Could not install Centreon (package centreon)
HI @AselDonlo7 , we are releasing Centreon 23.10.0 stable, can you retry with ‘-r stable’ option (instead or ‘-r unstable’)?
HI @AselDonlo7 , we are releasing Centreon 23.10.0 stable, can you retry with ‘-r stable’ option (instead or ‘-r unstable’)?
Hi @Laurent i tried it with the ‘stable’ option but this is the output that i have now
I noticed this in the apt-standard-23.10-stable/dists/bullseye/main/binary-arm64/Packages file:
Maybe this could be the problem?
Hi @AselDonlo7 did you retry to reinstall a poller on your Raspberry?
Hi @Laurent i did it and worked fine but now I have some errors when I run the script.
It seems that gives an error when does chown and chmod to /etc/centreon/conf.pm file because does not exist:
chmod: no se puede acceder a '/etc/centreon/conf.pm': No existe el fichero o el directorio fallo al cambiar el modo de '/etc/centreon/conf.pm' de 0644 (rw-r--r--) a 0664 (rw-rw-r--)
chown: no se puede acceder a '/etc/centreon/conf.pm': No existe el fichero o el directorio fallo al cambiar el propietario de '/etc/centreon/conf.pm' a centreon:centreon
Hi @AselDonlo7 thank you for the feedback, I will forward this to our team.
Regards,
Hi all, is it possible to register a Raspberry poller to a Cloud instance of Centreon ?
Thanks a lot !
Hello Mouvertus,
It is possible to register poller running on Alma8, 9 and Debian 11.
If I decrypt your pseudonym, I think we have a meet next Tuesday during which we can cover this.
Best Regards,
Nils

Hi @AselDonlo7 can you retry with:
apt clean apt update
I tried it, but the error messages still there
We update APT repo, can you retry?

Hello everyone,
I would like to know if it's possible to install the Centreon poller packages on Debian 12 running on a Raspberry Pi. Has anyone tried this or knows if it's officially supported ?
Thank you in advance for your help !
Good morning @fducos
I´ve just tried it with the unattended script but it fails:

@Laurent could be possible to solve this problem?
