Hi ,

I am trying to install data connector 8 on a Ubuntu server. Did this by converting dataconnect.rpm to .deb file . ran the deb file to install connector

It runs with no errors, but the directories created are not as expected.

/opt/dataconnect/queue is not created.

Do not see anything inside logs directory as well

Please let me know if there is document about installing Data connector 8 on Ubuntu.

Thanks,

Banu

Hi Banupriya

DataConnect has only been QA tested on CentOS and is therefore only supported on this platform.

I would advise you use a CentOS OS for that, as it would be safer to get a functioning environment.

The Dataconnect Guide does actually give all the steps to create a VM with CentOS and install DataConnect, so you could get this running  without too much effort.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards

Christophe
