[CLI] Installation on Ubuntu desktop fails #252
Comments

I'd need to see your install log (not just the output from the terminal) to see what has failed. Unity is the only supported option at this time, but Ubuntu is even moving back to gnome, so that'll most likely become the default. |

thank your for your quick reply, |
|
It’s in the terminal output
|
|
Hi, attached my logfile (reneamed to saltstack.txt) best regards |
|
The Problem seems to be very similar if not identical to my current issue on Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS. |
|
@TheZonks it seems you are getting some sort of weird utf8 issue when managing files. are you behind a proxy? |
|
Dear Erik,
thank you for our quick reply. I am definitely not behind a proxy.
Best regards

@crrfx are you running on a clean ubuntu 16.04 desktop? I'm seeing some weird errors and utf8 encoding errors, I've never seen this before. |
|
I installed Ubuntu on a USB stick (as HDD). The installation was done by an iso file from https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop . Immediately afterwards I tried installing SIFT.
Best regards, crrfx

I set up ubuntu 16.04 LTS several times anew, tested two networks (at home, office) and used both sift-cli@1.5.1-master and sift-cli@1.5.2-master for installing sift. I was, however, not successful. This is the latest log-file: |
|
I've installed SIFT about half a dozen times in the last 3 days from scratch without issues. Are you using any custom language settings, terminal settings, etc? The more details the better, but at this point, unfortunately since I cannot replicate it, I'm going to have to say it's your environment. I'm happy to continue to help troubleshoot, but super hard when I can't replicate. |
|
The only thing I change during installing Ubuntu is the language from English to German and the time zone. Could this be an issue? The hardware is an Lenovo T540p.
|
|
The timezone definitely should not be, although we highly recommend leaving the timezone as UTC. The language could definitely be an issue. We do not unfortunately test against anything other than English. It could be the thing causing the problem with the utf8 encoding. |
|
I installed SIFT (1.5.2) again from scratch and used only the English variant from Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Something changed indeed - I have now posters on my desktop. Nevertheless, I had still no success. I tried a second installation, and the result was worse compared with the fist trial. Both log files are attached. Which custom language settings and terminal settings should I check additionally? |
|
@crrfx please use the pre-release of the sift-cli to try and install. |
|
Still having problems: using
ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/saltstack.list' |
|
Use 1.6.1 |
|
We definitely had some weird things happen lately. Python PIP is mostly to blame. Try installing 1.6.1 and then running |
|
That's it. Without "--pre-release" there were still 12 failures, probably Python PIP, with this option v2018.16.0 was installed. Thank you very much for your help! |
|
Very good. We did a full release so |

I am getting this error trying to install SIFT workstation v2020.7.1 on Ubuntu 16.04. The install does not show me at the end Completed with Errors. It just stops. Below this error is the error from the saltstack.log
----- PLEASE READ ---------------------- A lot of failures are caused by the apt system being locked Before opening an issue in GitHub, please check to see if Try running 'apt-get update' then remove any packages that sansforensics@siftworkstation: ~/Downloads |
Hello,
i tried to install sift workstation on several ubuntu installations, all with the same result.
what i have done is:
installing a clean ubuntu vm with virtualbox.
created user siftadmin
running apt-get update
running apt-get upgrade
running apt-get dist-upgrade
used versions: ubuntu server 16.04.04 LTS minimal (no unity)
ubuntu desktop 16.04.04 LTS with unitiy
Environment (from the last test):
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS
Release: 16.04
Codename: xenial
Linux siftworkstation 4.13.0-38-generic #43~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Mar 14 17:48:43 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Console-Log:
sift version gives me:
/usr/local/bin$ sift version
BTW: i would prefer not to use unity or gnome or kde. i would like to use some more lightweight like xfce, lubuntu or similar from a minimal-installation of ubuntu. is there any chance in the future for this?
thank you
