Linux Client Install Error

I get the same error seen on windows…attached a screenshot…

Given the message I assume it’s trying to install init scripts for the service…

Again, I know you guys are really hands on with helping out with these things and I can write the init script too but it’d be great to add some docs for the linux side of things in terms of getting services up and running in a cohesive fashion studio wide.

Thanks!

Thanks for the screenshot. I few others had reported this problem, and based on this, I’m guessing the error occurs when we try to remove a non-existing service. We’ll continue to look into this problem and hopefully find a solution for beta 4.

Our goal with the version 6 installers is that you won’t need to write the init script yourself. The installer drops a deadlinelauncherservice script into the bin folder, and copies that to the init.d folder if you enable the option to install the Launcher as a daemon. In the end, it really should be as simple as enabling that checkbox during installation. Note that the installer supports silent installs from the command line, so you could wrap the installer with a script that includes all the pre-defined install settings, and use that to deploy to all your nodes.

Cheers,
