Thanks,
Changed to putty / ssh.
Next issue:
Setup the MySQL database and insert the default schema:
php includes/update/update.php
error message (tried using sudo, tried a machine and service restart):
Could not open input file: includes/update/update.php
*Observium dir contents:*
reuben@ubuntu-Observium-1:~$ cd /opt/ reuben@ubuntu-Observium-1:/opt$ cd observium/ reuben@ubuntu-Observium-1:/opt/observium$ ls add_device.php delete_device.php LICENSE snmp.conf.example adduser.php discovery.php mibs snmpd.conf.example check-errors.php housekeeping.php poller.php snmptrap.php check-services.php html poller-wrapper.py syslog.php config.php includes README tests config.php.default INSTALL rename_device.php update config_to_json.php irc.php scripts reuben@ubuntu-Observium-1:/opt/observium$
Thanks again,

You should ssh to the system after its installed rather than the vsphere cliebt. Life is way too short to do this stuff by hand ;)

Thanks,
missing the semicolon as you mentioned was the issue and redoing it helped

P.S. I cannot copy or paste text into the VMWare vSphere client sorry - so reverted to screenshotting
Thanks

Indeed. You need to be very careful typing commands from documentation, it's so easy to make mistakes!
In this case you seem to have duplicated the second part of the statement, likely because you missed the semicolon and typed it again with the semicolon, leading to a duplicate!
Just do that part again, and it'll be fine!

Hi Reuben,
You assume correctly. However, the statement you entered in your mysql client is not the one from our documentation (so the syntax error is logical) - please try again.

PS: you could just paste the text instead of a screenshot of text...

Hi,
Im setting up Observium on ubuntu server 14.04.1 LTS. Using the guide:
http://www.observium.org/docs/debian_ubuntu/
All going well until I get to the SQL database bit and have issues:
mysql -u root -p
<mysql root password> mysql> CREATE DATABASE observium DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci; mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON observium.* TO 'observium'@'localhost' -> IDENTIFIED BY '<observium db password>';
I assume the <observium db password> is to be replaced with a password? [image: Inline image 1]
Thanks and regards,
Reuben
