[RESOLVED] Linux 11.5 64 Bit ABS Linux install--acronis_agent does not start
Hi, All,
OS is Red Hat Linux Enterprise 6
kernel 2.6.32-279.el6.x86_64
I installed ABR11.5AL64_32256_en-US.x86_64
The installation "completes" with an error indicating that the service acronis_agent cannot be started.
When I try to start manually, this happens:
[root@myhost]# service acronis_agent start
Starting Acronis Agent: [ OK ]
[root@myhost]# service acronis_agent status
Acronis Agent is stopped
I attempted to open a support ticket, but after about 30 minutes of discussion with the agent, we were disconnected. I will try again tomorrow. :-)
Following is a transcript of the file trueimage-setup.log found in /var/log after I attempted a re-install. (This is why it says the kernel module is already loaded).

Acronis Customer Central is working on this problem.
Issue was ultimately resolved by uninstalling 11.5 using the uninstall script here:
/usr/lib/Acronis/BackupAndRecovery/uninstall
And then reinstalling 11.5.

Hi, Peter. Thanks. That's the correct case number. The agent was able to track me down by e-mail as well.
Do I need to take action, or is someone researching the problem?
For the forum members...I promise to post whatever the solution is.

I am facing the same issue with the following.
The acronis_mms just does not properly started.
[root@ediqas init.d]# ./acronis_mms start
Starting Acronis MMS: [ OK ]
[root@ediqas init.d]# ./acronis_mms status
Acronis MMS is stopped
Also acronis_console is not available in version 11.5
