Hi
I encountered several problems while making the upgrade.
1st the dependancy libbsd was missing. It seems it is required for carbonio-confd.service It is obtained from the epel repository
dnf install libbsd
2nd there were a bunch of services that were not enabled which was easily corrected by using systemctl to enable those services.. However carbonio-configd and carbonio-openldap refused to start properly even after reboot. There seems to have been a conflict in a couple of places. I'm not smart enough to figure out where.
carbonio-openldap refused to start because the address was already in use.
carbonio-configd did start, but then it would seem that something somethinig else was trying to start the service and I was getting repeated messages on the console that the service was already started.
I wrote the following script that seems to handle it OK which I run when I reboot the machine from a cron job. I called the script: carbonio_startup_issues.sh
#!/bin/bash # Eli Wapniarski. - May 24, 2024 # # This small script was written to handle startup problems with carbonio after # upgradeing from 24.3 to 24.5 and then upgrading Rocky Linux 8 to 9 # Hopefully this will become obsolete soon :) # # The script is designed to be started after the server has been rebooted and is triggered by the # following cron job that should be owned by root. Of course when adding the line to root's # crontab do not incluide the comment "#" # # @reboot /usr/local/bin/carbonio_startup_issues.sh # # Also, I found that I needed to wait a bit before the script executes otherwise # carbonio-openldap would not start sleep 300 su -u zextras /opt/zextras/bin/zmconfigdctl stop systemctl restart carbonio-configd killall slapd systemctl restart carbonio-openldap
I hope that this is helpful.
@eliwap Thanks for the report, we added a Known Issue for this problem: https://docs.zextras.com/carbonio-ce/html/release/issues.html#rhel-9-netcat-issue
