Hey guys, don’t forget python as pre-req for agent install! Came across this again, where the docs site doesn’t mention python-ctypes as pre-req for agent install. Let’s flip to GitHub for the agent. GitHub lists the python pre-req here. Otherwise, it’s Openssl 1.1.0 is only supported on x86_64 platforms (64-bit).
Let’s begin by starting with a Linux server. I’ve used Ubuntu in my lab, specifically, Ubuntu v16.04.
Login and check if you have latest, or have the package installed (Debian Linux)
Regular user run ‘sudo apt-get install python-ctypes‘
Super user/root ‘apt-get install python-ctypes‘
As of 1 July, v1.13.7.0 is current (latest) 64 bit OMS for Linux agent released.
