Vertica CE 6.0 - install error

[leosz]

host01:~ # /opt/vertica/sbin/install_vertica -s host01,host02 -r vertica-ce-6.0.0-1.x86_64.SUSE.rpm -u dbadmin -S 10.10.6.255

I am getting this error message towards the end of the install process:

Updating spread configuration...
Error: local variable 'ipAddr' referenced before assignment
Traceback (most recent call last):

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hi leosz!

Check if SPREAD daemon is up:

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/spreadd status         # as superuser

If not - start it manually:

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/spreadd start

PS Spread is responsible for "dialog" between nodes.

Thanks.

It is running but what I wanted was that the -S parameter takes effect and a private network is used for internal communications. There is no sign of that whatsoever.
