FAQ

 * Can I upgrade my server from version X to the last stable version ?
   
   Solution: Since we made a lot of changes from 2.0 to 2.5 in the database
   schema. We recommend you to not upgrade your OCS from 1.0 to 2.5 and newer
   directly. You may need to upgrade to 2.0 before.

 * After installing the server, I go to the graphical admin console (GUI) and it
   asks me to install the database ?
   
   Solution: The database is installed on the first access to the graphical
   admin console (GUI).

 * What URL must I put in the agent to contact the server ?
   
   Solution: The URL must be in this form http://dns_or_ip/ocsinventory. It is
   recommended that you use DNS instead of IP.

 * ocsinventory directory does not exist on my server
   
   Solution: ocsinventory is a virtual directory call by mod_perl in apache.
   ocsinventory directory must not exist.

 * Error 500:
   
   Solution: OCS engine can't comunicate with mysql server. Probably due to a
   wrong mysql account. You have to check z-ocsinventory-server.conf exactly
   theses few lines
   
   # Master Database settings
     # Replace localhost by hostname or ip of MySQL server for WRITE
     PerlSetEnv OCS_DB_HOST localhost
     # Replace 3306 by port where running MySQL server, generally 3306
     PerlSetEnv OCS_DB_PORT 3306
     # Name of database
     PerlSetEnv OCS_DB_NAME ocsweb
     PerlSetEnv OCS_DB_LOCAL ocsweb
     # User allowed to connect to database
     PerlSetEnv OCS_DB_USER ocs
     # Password for user
     PerlSetVar OCS_DB_PWD ocs
   
   
   Modify OCS_DB_USER and OCS_DB_PWD with your own account, restart apache, and
   finaly launch an inventory.

 * Error 417:
   
   Solution : insert ignore_expect_100 on into your squid.conf file and then run
   squid -k reconfigure.
