the table "dbversion" was not found.

[gvannauw]

Hello everyone
I was installing Zabbix on one of my Raspberry PI4 computers and ran into above problem when starting to configure the Zabbix environment. I followed the installation instructions to the letter, but at the point where I need to run the command "zcat /usr/share/doc/zabbix-server-mysql*/create.sql.gz | mysql -uzabbix -p zabbix" I receive the message that the repository cannot be found, hence the table entry is not created.
I have looked through various messages and suggestions but none of them help.

the os-release for the OS is version 10 (buster)

Can someone please point me into the right direction sothat I can get Zabbix configured/installed correctly??

Thanks a million
Best rgds

Gino

What version of Zabbix are you trying to use? If you have Zabbix 5.4, please note that the packages and filenames used have changed slightly. Specifically, did you install the package zabbix-sql-scripts? Then use /usr/share/doc/zabbix-sql-scripts/mysql/create.sql.gz to create the initial table and data.
Please check the procedure on the download page again.

hello
thank you for the information. I was unaware that I could download different versions. It seems I have installed the Zabbix version 5.4.3
For as far as the packages installed are concerned, I followed the installation instructions.
I will recheck the procedure

Thank you very much for your assistance..
B regards

I would like to restart from scratch .. rather then burning the raspberry OS image again on the SD card, I'd like to remove the entire installation of Zabbix.. are there any instructions available on how to perform this, i.e. complete wipe out of the installed Zabbix software so no traces are left over ??

Hey Gvannauw,

did you installed via apt? Then you should get it done via

apt purge <zabbix packages>

should do the trick.
This will deinstall the packages you have installed and remove the configfiles as well.

Maybe run

apt autoremove && apt autoclean

after the

apt purge

command ;-)

Good luck!
