[bareos-users] webacula, bareos-webui and bacula-web install errors

Post by h***@gmail.com
1) yum reports: bareos-webui-0.1.git.1418833784-42.2.fc18.noarch (contrib)
Requires: php-ZendFramework2 >= 2.2.0 and fails

Sorry, we have only tested up from Fedora 19 and it seems Fedora 18 does
not ship with Zend Framework 2.

I feel sorry, but as Fedora 18 is pretty old now, we are going to
disable the build, so there won't be any updates or Zend Framework 2
packages from our site.

I would recommend upgrading your distribution >= Fedora 20 if you
would like to use bareos-webui.

2) webacula.noarch 0:5.5.2.2.git.1420467742-34.1.fc18
bacula-web.noarch 0:5.2.13.1-4.3.fc18
bareos-webui-0.1.git.1418833784-42.2.fc18.noarch
My bareos system is PostgreSQL based, shouldn't they use postgres?
For all three systems, yum tried to install php-mysql, is that correct?

Yes, it is correct as php5-mysql is a dependency by all of them, e.g. it
delivers php5-pdo-mysql for the php5-pdo extension.

As per your suggestion, I tried a fresh install of Centos7
yum refused to install webacula because of a php-Zend Framework dependency but Zend was already installed during the installation of bareos-webui. Looks like a bug on the yum dependency list.

Also, I notice that the contrib repo for redhat/fedora systems are in a mixed state, some have zend in it, but version 1, etc etc. Probably they are not up to date.

Re webacula and centos7

I had the same problems in centos7

Zend is superceded with zend2 which is NOT supported by webacula. I was reportibg all this to the webacula author working thru problems until he stopped responding or doing a new version

If I remember, i found an old zend kit for centos7 and it required a few ln links to make it even install. When running, the web screens didnt show graphics and worked intermittently. I gave up.

This was back in October, if you want to see where I got

Hi Phil,

Thanks very much for your report. I will stop trying testing these contrib packages for now and wait for the developers declare it stable or at least beta state.

This will let me focus on the most important thing: the backup of our data and some proficiency with plain bareos.

Best Regards,

Hilario

Hi Guys,

I successfully got bareos-webui working in Centos 7.

Make sure you have epel installed:

yum install epel-release

I used the contrib repo from RHEL 7 as there was no Centos 7 contrib Repo yet.

Also you need to edit /etc/httpd/conf.d/bareos-webui.conf and update the Allow From syntax to the new apache 2.4 syntax like below

ï»¿ï»¿# Deny from all
# Allow from localhost
# Allow from ::1
Require all granted

Hello Ashley.
I confirm that bareos-webui did install in Centos 7 with epel-release.

Initially it presented a "Forbidden You don't have permission to access /bareos-webui/statistics/ on this server"
It only worked after I inserted the "Require all granted" line as you instructed.

It also presented connection failure to postgresql due to a SELinux restriction.
The solution as suggested by SELinux alert is to set a SELinux boolean:
sudo setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1
sudo setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect_db 1

Frank Bergkemper:
May I kindly suggest that you update your installation information on github.com (INSTALL.md file) to include these instructions?
While there you could also include the information that on RedHat, the bareos-webui apache configuration file should be in /etc/httpd/conf.d instead of /etc/apache2/conf.d

Hi Hilario,

SELinux stuff excluded, mostly done with the new release, I guess.

Steps to do, if SELinux is enabled, will be added to the documentation
after some testing with latest changes.

If you already have done that or would like to, you are welcome to
contribute something.

Frank,
I will continue to test the bareos-webui and will report any SELinux issues or solution I may have.
I will indeed install it with SELinux enforcing because it is the correct and sensible way to do it. As soon as we figure-out all the settings, than the rpm install scriptlet should be updated to fix it. Also the install docs must have a section dedicated to SELinux and how to manually set it.
All the Best,

HilÃ¡rio

Hi Hilario,

I've already pushed a commit with an updated INSTALL.md including
SELinux configuration. By setting these two booleans, I was able to get
bareos-webui running on a CentOS 7 box with SELinux enabled.

# Allow HTTPD scripts and modules to connect to the network
setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect on

# Allow HTTPD to connect to a remote database
setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect_db on

See:
