agent don't send debian 7 software inventory

Question

Dear community,

I'm running OCS Inventory server 2.5 and agent 2.4.2.

Despite all required and recommended packages are installed, on Debian 7, the agent doesn't send any detail about the installed software to the server.

Enabling debug mode there's not <SOFTWARE> section in the log.

dpkg if of course installed.

Any hint?

Kind regards,

Gabriele

Hi,

Could you post the content of ocsinventory-agent.log file, please?

Answer 2

Hi Frank,

the log is too long, therefore I've sent you a private message.
Thank you,

Gabriele

Answer 3

Hi Frank,

do you have some idea? I've upgraded ExtUtils::MakeMaker in order to avoid even the

"Warning: prerequisite ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.59 not found. We have 6.5705."

the result is the same.
Have anybody noticed this issue? How did you solved it?

Regards,

Gabriele

Answer 4

I've found the solution:

In Agent/Backend/OS/Generic/Packaging/Deb.pm

change

my @listfile=glob('"/var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list"');

with

my @listfile=</var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list>;
