Sophos Central Linux Server Protection (Installation failed)

FormerMember
FormerMember

Hello

 

I tried to install "Sophos Central Server Protection for Linux" on my CentOS 7 (cPanel) server. The "SophosInstall.sh" scripts fails to download the medium installer. I am logged in as root user.

Error Code: 126

Error Message: installer/bin64/installer (No permission)

 

Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

 

Thank you for your help and kind regards

    Nevermind, I think I found a workable solution. Instead of downloading the installer, then uploading it to the destination server, I copied the URL of the installer from the Sophos Central Protect Devices page and ran wget on the url on the destination machine. Once doing this, I was able to `sudo sh SophosInstall.sh` the file and it installed fine. Must have been corrupted when I downloaded or uploaded it.

    Try mounting $TMPDIR (or /tmp) executable with below command, 

    sudo mount -o remount,exec /tmp /var/tmp

    then,

    sudo sh ./SophosInstall.sh

     

    You'll be able to install. Then change the directory /tmp back to non-executable for security:

    sudo mount -o remount,noexec /tmp /var/tmp

     

    Cheers

    Jin,

    Yes, I understand that works for centos, however, Ubuntu doesn't mount /tmp on a separate partition, so it doesn't work for Ubuntu.
