  • If your operating system is distributed with a system-provided NFS server, it must be disabled prior to installing QoreStor.
  • QoreStor 7.1 requires the nfs-utils, policycoreutils, glibmm24, krb5-libs, libsemanage, libaio, perl, mutt, yum-utils, bind-utils, attr, sqlite, and libxml2 packages to be installed prior to installation. Additionally, for RHEL, CentOS, and Oracle Linux 7.x systems, the screen package is also required. For RHEL/CentOS/OL 8.x systems, libnsl, boost, xmlrpc-c, xmlrpc-c-client, bzip2-devel, rpcbind, and libidn are also required. If they are not installed, the installer will prompt for permission to download and install these packages before installing or upgrading QoreStor.
