sophos suse linux installation failure

Hi,

I am not a linux expert . it would be great if you can give some idea how to manually compile talpa 

Before running the the installer and to enable it to compile custom kernel modules, the following must be installed:

• The kernel source matching your running kernel (normally accessible from /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/)
• A system.map file matching your running kernel (normally located in /boot/System.map-`uname -r`)
• GCC and configured development tools, e.g. make. (The version of GCC must be the same as the one used to compile your kernel.)

Most distributions provide a kernel-headers package which must also be installed. These distributions also provide all the required kernel sources to compile.

Note: For SuSE based distribution you will need the package kernel-syms from the running kernel version.

In the above what exactly they are saying 

Thanks

They are saying you need to install kernel headers, gcc and make.

I'm afraid I don't know SuSE well enough to advice you how to install packages or which packages are required.

Hi,

I enabled fanotify , and tried to restart the service . after that the server showing red color instead of green 

Real time protection disabled

I don't know what is going on 

I think you should probably raise a support request, as I don't know what's happening with your system and they are more likely to be able to help you.

Hi,

This is from another server (attached ) here is the screenshot

showing in red colour 

As I said, I think you should contact Support so they can investigate further.

Hi,

You will have to confirm if the package kernel-syms is installed already or not.

If the installer cannot compile the kernel modules, a log file is created in the path /opt/sophos-av/log/talpaselect.log

Please check that log and search for the error message.
