Hi, I am trying to install SO 2.0.3 RC1 on a physical server. I choose Evaluation mode and it always stuck at 'Applying thehive Salt state'.
Any suggestions? Thanks.


Thanks.
Zero

Hi Zero,

Could you be running into the following? From https://docs.securityonion.net/en/2.0/configuration.html:

If you install directly in a console (rather than an SSH session), the console may timeout causing the install to appear to hang. If this happens, simply press an arrow key on your keyboard to wake the console up.

Are you using DHCP?  If so, you may want to try setting a reservation before install, or setting a static IP -- the IP may have changed during setup.


Thanks,
Wes

Hi Wes, thanks for your reply. But I have assigned static IP address to it. And I can ping the address.

Hi Doug, thanks for your reply. I have tried again and it again stuck at the same place. I see there are errors in the bottom of the setup log. See if you have any idea about this. I assigned static IP address and It can be ping. Thanks.

If you look in /opt/so/saltstack/local/pillar/static.sls, does the value for managerip appear to be correct?

Thanks,
Wes

I had this exact behavior happen to me setting up a server in Eval mode tonight, stuck at 79% as well. It turned out I had typo'ed the DNS server IP I put in during setup. Since I was just setting up an Eval VM I just reinstalled from scratch with proper DNS.

Hope this helps,
Steve
