I just did a fresh GLUU 2.4.3 installation on a fresh CentOS 6.8 installation according to these instructions: https://gluu.org/docs/deployment/centos/. When I got to the command: service gluu-server-2.4.3 start I received the error message "kernel too old for this udev version". However, the GLUU server seems to have started up. Maybe CentOS 6.8 isn't fully supported?

Are you using 64 bit OS? We don't support 32-bit.

Yes, I installed CentOS from CentOS-6.6-x86_64-netinstall.iso (and the VM is a 64-bit VM on a 64-bit host OS).

I've seen it too (can't remember clearly where, but it was one of the recent packages), and one other user also reported it recently. It doesn't seem to affect functionality, though.

(Never mind, see next comment) The first command doesn't produce anything (I don't have any RPMs whose name start with 'kernel'). The second command: ``` $ uname -a Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 10 17:27:01 UTC 2016 x86_64 x864_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ``` One thing that I noticed, though, is that I may actually be running CentOS 6.7 (somehow, since I pointed to the 6.8 repo when I set up the VM): ``` $ cat /etc/*release* CentOS release 6.7 (Final) CentOS release 6.7 (Final) CentOS release 6.7 (Final) cpe:/o:centos:linux:6:GA ``` As you noted, it doesn't seem to be stopping GLUU from coming up: ``` $ sudo service gluu-server-2.4.3 status gluu-server-2.4.3 is running: started ```

Never mind - I was logged into GLUU server when I ran the commands, so I got different output (!). ``` $ rpm -qa --queryformat '%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}.rpm\n' 'kernel*' kernel-firmware-2.6.32-642.el6.noarch.rpm kernel-2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64.rpm $ cat /etc/*release* CentOS release 6.8 (Final) ... ``` I guess GLUU runs in a Docker container (or something?)

Gluu runs in a `chroot` container. Do we need to keep this ticket open?

Well, I can consistently reproduce it - but it doesn't seem to cause any actual problems.

OK, Adrian will review and determine best step forward. Thanks for bringing to our attention.

Hello Josha, can you post the output of this command? : as root run this: rpm -qa|grep gluu-server-2.4.3 Adrian.-
