Wazuh manager not enable in AlmaLinux

[Valerio Vinci]

Hello,

I've installed a Wazuh Manager in AlmaLinux release 9.2 (Turquoise Kodkod)

when I try to enable the service I got error:

systemctl enable wazuh-manager.service
Synchronizing state of wazuh-manager.service with SysV service script with /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install.
Executing: /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable wazuh-manager
Failed to execute /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install: No such file or directory

Hi Valerio Vinci

Is the wazuh manager installed correctly?

Can you share version of manager installed?

You can check its status with the following command:

# /var/ossec/bin/wazuh-control status

Hello,

the manager instance is working perfectly and the service are ok as soon as I start it manually:

# /var/ossec/bin/wazuh-control status

wazuh-modulesd is running...

From what has been reported, a file appears to be missing.

Failed to execute /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install: No such file or directory

Sure but seems that it's a problem of Wazuh Manager installer.

we hare done the same step to several other OS but never got this issue.

At now we can't migrate the manager to other OS... there's any way to solve this problem?

Recommended operating systems to install the manager are:
https://documentation.wazuh.com/current/installation-guide/wazuh-server/index.html#recommended-operating-systems

However, it is possible to install it on others, as is your case.

That, I insist, beyond the fact that the systemctl service poses some inconvenience, does not mean that this makes its use impossible.

What version of wazuh-manager have you used?

Also, it would be helpful if you could share the procedure you have performed.

[Valerio Vinci]

Hi,

sure I know.
if I start the Wazuh server manually it works fine.

The only thing that's not working is that the service is not starting on reboot.
I've created a cron that starts it on reboot but I think that there is
a bug during installation.

The Manager version is 4.5.2

The error message you're encountering indicates that the `systemd-sysv-install` tool is not present on your system. This tool is used to enable SysV init scripts as systemd services. Since your system is using `systemd` as the init system, this issue can occur.

Here are steps to resolve this problem:

1. Check Installed Packages:
   Verify whether the `systemd-sysv-install` tool is installed on your system. You can do this by running:

   # rpm -q initscripts

   If it's not installed, you should see an output like "package initscripts is not installed." In this case, proceed to the next step.

2. Install `initscripts` Package:
   You can install the `initscripts` package to get the missing `systemd-sysv-install` tool. Use the following command to install the package:

  $ sudo dnf install initscripts

   If you encounter any issues installing the package, make sure your system's package repositories are configured correctly.

3. Enable Wazuh Manager Service:
   After installing the `initscripts` package, try enabling the Wazuh Manager service again:

   $ sudo systemctl enable wazuh-manager.service

   This should now work without errors.

4. Start the Wazuh Manager:
   Once the service is enabled, you can start the Wazuh Manager:

   $ sudo systemctl start wazuh-manager.service

   Check the status of the service to ensure it's running without errors:

   $ sudo systemctl status wazuh-manager.service
 
   If you encounter any issues at this stage, review the service logs for more specific error messages:

   $ sudo journalctl -u wazuh-manager.service

By installing the `initscripts` package and then enabling the Wazuh Manager service, you should be able to get the service up and running without encountering the "No such file or directory" error.
