Nagios-Agent Error Installation on OpenSuse

when I try to install the linux-nagios-agent on my linux server I get the error below:

/home/lost+found/linux-nrpe-agent # ./fullinstall
/etc/os-release: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `('

Below is the content of the os-release

# cat /etc/os-release
NAME=openSUSE
VERSION = 12.1 (Asparagus)
VERSION_ID="12.1"
PRETTY_NAME="openSUSE 12.1 (Asparagus) (x86_64)"
ID=opensuse

Any idea what is causing the problem?

Solution

  • Try to double quote the VERSION string, here's how it looks in a newer version:

    # cat /etc/os-release
NAME=openSUSE
VERSION="13.2 (Harlequin)"
VERSION_ID="13.2"
PRETTY_NAME="openSUSE 13.2 (Harlequin) (x86_64)"
ID=opensuse
ANSI_COLOR="0;32"
CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:opensuse:opensuse:13.2"
