Installation Help

[Blake Boman]

Hello,

A department that I support is interested in using Archivematica. Everyone in my support group has limited experience with Linux, as we are primarily a Windows shop. I'm attempting to follow the instructions to get this software installed, but I've run into some problems. I'm following the instructions for a new installation of 1.5. Through another post here, I found that I needed to change the line:

sudo wget -O - https://packages.archivematica.org/1.5.x/key.asc | apt-key add -

to 

sudo wget -O - https://packages.archivematica.org/1.5.x/key.asc | sudo apt-key add -

in order to prevent one error from occurring, but I'm also running into additional problems later in the instructions. When I attempt to install archivematica-mcp-client, I get the following errors:

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree       

Reading state information... Done

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable

distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

or been moved out of Incoming.

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

 archivematica-mcp-client : Depends: bagit but it is not installable

                            Depends: bulk-extractor but it is not installable

                            Depends: ffmpeg (>= 7:3.0)

                            Depends: libavcodec-extra-56 but it is not installable

                            Depends: fits (>= 0.8.4) but it is not installable

                            Depends: nailgun-client but it is not installable

                            Depends: openjdk-7-jre-headless but it is not installable

                            Depends: tika but it is not installable

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Running sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade also give me the following errors:

This is a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04. I've attempted this multiple times with the same result.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Hello Blake:

The instructions says :

Version 1.5: Operating System requirement: A current Ubuntu LTS version, which at the moment means version 14.04. The 64 bit Server Edition of Ubuntu 14.04.4 is recommended.

We plan to release a version 1.5.1 which will be available on Ubuntu 12.04, 16.04 and CentOS/Redhat 7 (more information available soon).

Try to use ubuntu 14.04 and you do not use 16.04

I hope this help

Miguel

Never mind, I read that 16.04 will be supported with 1.51. I'll use 14.04 to see if I have the same issues.

[Blake Boman]

Yep, thanks! I'm trying it now.

[Blake Boman]

I've got it installed on 14.04. No errors during the installation this time, but I ran into another problem...

I followed all of the steps exactly, yet when I attempt to load the dashboard page it just takes me to the "Apache2 Ubuntu Default Page". The Storage Service page works fine, but for some reason I cannot get the dashboard to work at all. Could someone please assist?

Thanks,

Blake Boman

Hi Blake,

Have you tried re-starting the services? You may not need to restart all of them but here they all are just in case:

sudo service uwsgi restart
sudo service nginx restart
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
sudo service gearman-job-server restart
sudo restart archivematica-mcp-server
sudo restart archivematica-mcp-client
sudo restart fits
sudo freshclam

Cheers,

Sarah

Hello, thanks for the advice.

I tried that a few times yesterday and it didn't help, unfortunately.

Hello:

I think your Archivematica problem are here, the instructions sais:

7. Configure the dashboard

sudo rm -f /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/*default* [this might change]
sudo wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/artefactual/archivematica/stable/1.4.x/localDevSetup/apache/apache.default -O /etc/apache2/sites-available/default.conf

.....

I think it's an error.

Try to use:

sudo wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/artefactual/archivematica/stable/1.5.x/localDevSetup/apache/apache.default -O /etc/apache2/sites-available/default.conf
I hope this help,

Miguel
