Centos Stream 9 enable wazuh-agent

[Natassia M Stelmaszek]

I'm unable to enable wazuh-agent on a CentOS Stream 9 system.  The agent will run if I start it manually but when I try to enable it so that it will start automatically, I get the following:

~$sudo systemctl enable wazuh-agent

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

On my Centos 8 and Rocky Linux installations the file systemd-sysv-install is a link to /usr/sbin/chkconfig.   Based on the dates, it looks like those were part of the initial Linux installations.  Neither the link nor the chkconfig file exist on the Centos 9 system.

How do I proceed to get wazuh-agent enabled?

Hello, nice to greet you.

I have set up an environment with the characteristics that you mention and I had the same error. I was able to solve it in the following way.

Try running the following command, in case it is not installed and it gives you the option to install, install it:

chkconfig --add wazuh-agent

Then try enabling and starting the agent:

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable wazuh-agent
systemctl start wazuh-agent

Let me know if you were able to make it.

Greetings

This is because the wazuh-agent is missing a dependency on chkconfig which is not installed on CentOS 9 by default.
