Hi, When I run the install_vertica script I get an error.
# /opt/vertica/sbin/install_vertica -r /root/vertica-ce-6.0.1-0.x86_64.RHEL5.rpm -u vdbadmin
ERROR: A Python interpreter must be installed on any host on which you want to use the Administration Tools. See the Python home page for information and downloads.
then i try to execute the command below:
# /opt/vertica/oss/python/bin/python
-bash: /opt/vertica/oss/python/bin/python: cannot execute binary file

Re: Problem when running the install_vertica
Vertica requires Python Version 2.4.6, 2.5.4 or 2.6.2. Do you even have it installed? If not, you can install python using the yum install python command...
Better yet, maybe maybe check out this site:

If you have it installed, which version? Use the python -V command to find out.

login as root,use command:
# cd
# python
Python 2.7.4 ......
type "help","copyright"...
>>>
and then, execute command: /opt/vertica/oss/python/bin/python
the same error : cannot execute binary file
the reason is lack of some package? I guess
the python in vertica is not complied correctly?
I'm sure that I have installed vertica**.rpm successfully

Re: Problem when running the install_vertica
Hi,
Can you verify that files on your system have the same permission as on my test box? I can launch python fine from the /opt/vertica/oss/pythin/bin directory.

ELF cause the error?
The os is 64bit or 32bit?? I was confused
I installed linux rhel 5.4 x64 and vertica ce 6.0 on VMware for testing,it just fine.
knicely87? any other suggestion? thanks very much

Re: Problem when running the install_vertica
POWER is a reduced instruction set computer (RISC) instruction set architecture (ISA). I do not believe you can install Vertica on this hardware.
There are several key architecture-specific differences between IBM POWER and x86:
There are several key architecture-specific differences between IBM POWER and x86:
- 1. Endianness or byte ordering
2. Data type length in 32- and 64-bit environments
3. Data alignment differences in the architectures
