Installing Snipe-IT on CentOS 7 and MariaDB
-
I stood up a CentOS 7 and ran Scott's single line install.
It asked me if I wanted to have the system make it's own password, then it asked me to setup a password for the maria DB, then do I want fake data, and allow anonymous user access, and a test db.
Then it asked me again to create a user and to put in fake data and a test db and remove anonymous, etc and ended with this error.

Everything seems to be working pretty well. I'll get some of our data into it this week.
Scott's single line install was pretty nice. I looked over the docker setup, huh.. for someone like me who can barely spell Linux let alone admin it - Docker looks like a pain to configure.

Docker is still non-trivial at this point. It's for people moving to DevOps models.

Can someone provide screen shots of stuff being tracked and such? I do need to get our company assets all tracked someplace. I am always up for something more than a spreadsheet.

I did look at the online demo they have. It looks nice, but it works like crap on my iPad.

Ya I agree. If you want to start with containers LXC is easier to get started with IMO. It's not as separated as docker is and you can open a console on the container and use it just like a regular system.

Couple questions,
- can I assume that fail2ban will work out of the box since it is just apache?
- Has anyone seen a community support channel for snipe-it? Because I have not seen one.

Golden John SDid you ensure selinux was disabled?
setenforce 0
That is pretty much a standard troubleshooting step on CentOS 7. If that fixes it, then you can look into what specific thing need allowed. -
@JaredBusch This seemed to work for me. I'm extremely new to the linux world. How would one go about finding out why I need to do this every time I restart the server?

Here are the selinux info

You will want to change the context of the files instead of disabling SELinux. Most likely you will need to run
chcon -R -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t /var/www/htmlThen if you type
ls -lZIn /var/www/html/ it should show the context for each file and it should be
httpd_sys_rw_content_t -

The high level reason is because whatever your setup is, it is not set up properly for SELinux. And the command being used does not change the SELinux setting but disables it temporarily. When your system reboots it turns SELinux back on since the configuration for it was not changed - it is still set to run when the system starts.

Right, using
setenforce 0is a troubleshooting step only. by using it to disable SELinux, and everything then worked, you know that you then just need to look at what the application is doing that SELinux does not like. Starting with what @johnhooks said above. Then usesetenforce 1to turn it back on and see if it still works right. -
If installing a CentOS7 on a local VM, what base enviroment/addons are needed to have the one line installer work?

Good question. This was done before I had our Scale HC3 cluster with capacity to do all of our testing on vanilla OSes. It was only tested on DO, as far as I know. I'll test this on a CentOS 7 Minimal and let you know....

@subi15wrx and welcome to the community, by the way!!

All I did on a min install was add net-tools and wget.
Then followed the step by step commands as the one line command didn't work for me. In fact I've just created a new VLAN for "Misc" servers so will be re-installing Snipe very soon (today if I get time - FogServer First) -
Just ran through the one line installer and it worked.
Indeed wget is missing. So before starting you need to...
yum -y install wget
And on some CentOS 7 minimal installs there is no firewall. If that is the case for you, you should be good. If you have a firewall you will need to open port 80 like so...
firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=80/tcp --permanent; firewall-cmd --reload
