Install OCS 2.1.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS [closed]

Question

Hi all,

I try to install OCS on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

I use this documentation  http://ceedrik.free.fr/pdf/Installation%20d'OCS%20Inventory%20NG.pdf (French) to install IT.

The install procedure :

sudo su
apt-get update
apt-get install apache2 mysql-server php5 perl6 make libxml-simple-perl libio-compress-perl libdbi-perl libdbd-mysql-perl libapache-dbi-perl libnet-ip-perl libsoap-lite-perl php5-gd libphp-pclzip php5-mysql
wget https://launchpad.net/ocsinventory-server/stable-2.1/2.1.2/+download/OCSNG_UNIX_SERVER-2.1.2.tar.gz
tar -xvf OCSNG_UNIX_SERVER-2.1.2.tar.gz
cd OCSNG_UNIX_SERVER-2.1.2
sh setup.sh
=> Where is Apache main configuration file [] ?/etc/apache2/apache2.conf
=> Where is Apache Include configuration directory [] ?/etc/apache2/conf-enabled
reboot

 

When i do "apache2 -k restart"

I see this message and Apache does not work :

AH00526: Syntax error on line 74 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf:
Invalid Mutex directory in argument file:${APACHE_LOCK_DIR}

Is somebody have a solution for me?

Hi,

/etc/apache2/envvars file content. Verify that APACHE_LOCK_DIR is correctly set as described below.

# envvars - default environment variables for apache2ctl

# this won't be correct after changing uid
unset HOME

# for supporting multiple apache2 instances
if [ "${APACHE_CONFDIR##/etc/apache2-}" != "${APACHE_CONFDIR}" ] ; then
    SUFFIX="-${APACHE_CONFDIR##/etc/apache2-}"
else
    SUFFIX=
fi

# Since there is no sane way to get the parsed apache2 config in scripts, some
# settings are defined via environment variables and then used in apache2ctl,
# /etc/init.d/apache2, /etc/logrotate.d/apache2, etc.
export APACHE_RUN_USER=www-data
export APACHE_RUN_GROUP=www-data
# temporary state file location. This might be changed to /run in Wheezy+1
export APACHE_PID_FILE=/var/run/apache2/apache2$SUFFIX.pid
export APACHE_RUN_DIR=/var/run/apache2$SUFFIX
export APACHE_LOCK_DIR=/var/lock/apache2$SUFFIX
# Only /var/log/apache2 is handled by /etc/logrotate.d/apache2.
export APACHE_LOG_DIR=/var/log/apache2$SUFFIX

## The locale used by some modules like mod_dav
export LANG=C
## Uncomment the following line to use the system default locale instead:
#. /etc/default/locale

export LANG

## The command to get the status for 'apache2ctl status'.
## Some packages providing 'www-browser' need '--dump' instead of '-dump'.
#export APACHE_LYNX='www-browser -dump'

## If you need a higher file descriptor limit, uncomment and adjust the
## following line (default is 8192):
#APACHE_ULIMIT_MAX_FILES='ulimit -n 65536'

## If you would like to pass arguments to the web server, add them below
## to the APACHE_ARGUMENTS environment.
#export APACHE_ARGUMENTS=''

## Enable the debug mode for maintainer scripts.
## This will produce a verbose output on package installations of web server modules and web application
## installations which interact with Apache
#export APACHE2_MAINTSCRIPT_DEBUG=1

Hi Frankb,

Thank you for your reply.

/etc/apache2/envvars seem exactly the same. I don't see difference with my file.

It seem difficult to install OCS 2.1.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

I try on Centos 7 too with no sucess.

With Centos 6.5 and this procedure : http://www.vr4servers.com/how-to-install-configure-ocsinventory-2-1-server-on-centos-6-5-64bit/  , it is easy.
