Grafana OSS repo for RHEL/CentOS/Fedora

Grafana Installation
1

I’ve just noticed that the Grafana OSS repository for RHEL/CentOS/Fedora contains grafana-enterprise packages.
Also, it looks like installing the grafana package results in grafana-enterprise being installed.

This causes problems as the automatic update of the package results in a broken Grafana instance (probably because there is no license present).

This seems to have happened yesterday and it only affects the latest grafana-9.2.4 package:

 root@localhost:~# dnf install grafana

Hi @laugmanuel,

Welcome to the :grafana: community support forums !!

Can you please share the information as to which online instructions you followed for installation? If so, what is the URL?

Thanks

Hi @usman.ahmad ,

thank’s for responding.
I just tried to reproduce with Docker to have a sharable piece of code to test.

However, during further testing, it seems like our internal mirror of the repository (we do that for offline-access purposes) was just broken. After rebuilding the mirror, the upgrade now successfully works and does no longer use grafana-enterprise.

So I guess, the problem was self-made and we can close this topic :wink:
