FlexNet Manager Platform cannot access the directories

Hi Guys,

I am having trouble with a number of AIX/Linux servers, that when installing the applicable agent, present me with the below error.

The user is installing as root, has anyone seen this error before, and how do I resolve?

The log file just states the same error.

Tue Oct 27 15:05:54 GMT 2020 (U, 0)] {26542246} FlexNet Manager Platform cannot access the directories describing your FlexNet Manager Platform applications.
Please review your application directory settings.
See log file for more details.

Are you using the correct agent install package for the platform you are installing on?

Are you launching the installation package as root, or sudo to root?

Correct install package is being used, and user is logged in as root.

Please try the following steps and if you still don't make any progress then please create a support case to get assistance troubleshooting further:

Uninstall the agent
rm -rf /var/opt/managesoft
Install the agent

Thanks,

Hi Guys,

I am seeing a further error, along similar lines, any thoughts?

Those latest messages suggest that the RedHat Package Manager database on this computer is corrupted.

Some commands that may help to repair this database are:

mkdir -p /var/lib/rpm/backup
cp -a /var/lib/rpm/__db* /var/lib/rpm/backup/
rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*
rpm --rebuilddb

I wanted to touch base to see if there was any further progress with this issue?  I too am seeing this problem sporadically across the enterprise with the 2020 R1 agent.
