Description

Rudder agent on pure just-installed Fedora 30 (RHEL 7 based) fails local inventory creation with

perl: symbol lookup error: /opt/rudder/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/List/Util/Util.so: undefined symbol: Perl_xs_apiversion_bootcheck

This prevents connection to the server and therefore any use of Rudder. Server System and embedded Perl versions are the same. Server reports no attempted connection, systems can find each other on the network normally. It seems it's a problem with the bundled version of Perl in Fedora 30, there is no problem with the same config on CentOS 7, where Perl is older (v. 5.16 afaik), it registers with the server normally.

Sorry about the messy log... Here is an edited version that looks more readable. :)

  • Priority deleted (0)

This happens because Fedora is currently not supported, and the RHEL7 package is not compatible with the perl version used on Fedora. I opened #15454 to fix small issues preventing to build the agent on recent Fedora systems, it should be possible to built it from source now (there is also a test package attached to the ticket).

Closing as RHEL7 package is not supposed to support Fedora.

RHEL8 package may work better, and if not the package should be rebuild.
