Could not identify OS distribution

Registered Posts: 2 ✭✭✭✭
Hello,

I'm trying to install DSS on elementary OS (built on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS), but I keep getting the following error

[+] Creating data directory: DATA_DIR
[+] Saving installation log to /home/katerina/DATA_DIR/run/install.log
[+] Using Java at /usr/bin/java : java version "1.8.0_161"
[+] Checking required dependencies
*** Could not identify OS distribution

[-] Dependency check failed

I have also tried -without-java, but it still cannot identify OS distribution.

Do you have any recommendations? Thank you in advance.

Best regards,

Katerina.

    Hi,

    Elementary OS is not a supported Linux distribution for DSS.

    You can try the following (run from the DSS installation directory)

    * Install dependencies by forcing OS detection: sudo -i ./scripts/install/install-deps.sh -os ubuntu 16.04

    * Then run the normal DSS installation procedure without dependency check: add "-n" to the arguments of installer.sh
