Install drlm (RedHat 8)

[FlanniganColum]

Hey.
I am trying to install drlm on a RHEL 8 server, and i am getting some issues that i have outlined below, this is in relation to the package not being initialized so the installation cannot be performed. Below is the first output of running the install.sh script, below that i have outlined another error.

After manually pulling down the repo by doing the below commands i get a different error, can you assist me, as neither the install.sh script or manual process is working.

Now, i do a "go mod init main" as i see you call the package "main" in your scripts.

[root@drlm01:/opt/drlm]# go mod init main
go: creating new go.mod: module main
go: to add module requirements and sums:
	go mod tidy
[root@drlm01:/opt/drlm]# go mod tidy

go: finding module for package github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3

go: main/usr/share/drlm/www/drlm-api imports
	./models: "./models" is relative, but relative import paths are not supported in module mode

so above looks like there is an issue importing a local models directory, but just out of curious i run the "make rpm" again and i got the below

Can you tell me how i can install this on a RHEL 8 server??

[didacog]

Hi @FlanniganColum,

Thanks a lot for your interest in DRLM!

If you want to quickly get DRLM up and running without the hassle of manual installation (and avoid distro or version-related issues), we recommend giving the drlm.io Community Appliance a try. 🎉

It’s completely free, pre-installed, and ready to start — so you can focus on testing and using DRLM right away, without worrying about setup problems.

If you still prefer to install DRLM manually on RHEL8, just keep in mind that support for that specific version may take a bit longer, as we’d need to find time to test and troubleshoot on that platform.

The community appliance is the fastest and easiest way to get started smoothly — feel free to give it a spin and let us know if you have any questions!

Cheers,
Didac 😊

[FlanniganColum]

Thanks, but this does not work i run an XCP-NG virtual environment in my lab and the file format you provide is not native to it.

[didacog]

Hello @FlanniganColum , the disk format is qcow2, you just need to convert it to vhd/vhdx. That i think is the natiive format for XCP-NG?

qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O vpc drlm-community.qcow2 drlm-community.vhd

or

qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O vhdx drlm-community.qcow2 drlm-community.vhdx

Kind regards,
Didac

[didacog]

Hello @FlanniganColum,

Just checking in to see if you had a chance to try the qemu-img convert commands I shared for converting the DRLM .qcow2 image to vhd or vhdx for use with XCP-ng.

Let me know if it worked as expected or if you need any help during the process — happy to assist.

Kind regards,
Didac
