Thread: Kusu 1.1 install MySQL problem

Installed Kusu 1.1 with CenOS 5.3 and all kits. No problems. Then configured my nodes with netedit and ngedit. Then upon starting addhost, i receive an error. Turns out MySQL package was installed, but chkconfig showed 'off' at all run levels. Turned that 'on', then started database. Found sql scripts in /opt/kusu/sql and submitted those, so now i have a kusudb database. Q1: is there anything else that i might be missing database wise?

Next i start addhost, which yields an error stating
ImportError: No module named MySQLdb
File: /opt/kusu/plugins/addhost/10-cacti.py

Q2: must be related to myql not running at install time. How to fix this?

To answer my own thread here ...

chkconfig mysqld on
adduser mysql
mysql < /opt/kusu/sql/*.sql (but not sample file, add CREATE or USE kusudb; to scritps)

removed cacti from nodesgroups using ngedit
removed kit cacti from repository with repoman
removed kit cacti using kitops

addhost now runs fine, but i'm unclear what plugins i'm missing. must be the mysql driver for cacti. anybody have any ideas?

blame a bad cdrom drive for this error of mysql/kususdb not properly being installed, however i was to reproduce the cacti error. will start a new post.
