Problem

After installing the Charon-SSP Agent without errors, the agent does not start and displays a general error messages in the systemctl status output:

...

  • To simplify the installation kit structure, there is only one Charon-SSP Agent RPM for all the Linux distributions and versions supported by a specific Charon-SSP version.
  • The library libcrypt.so.1 is provided in different RPMs by different distributions and versions.
  • Hence, the Charon Agent RPM cannot have a dependency definition while still provide one common Charon Agent RPM.

Solution

To solve the problem, identify the correct RPM package to install the missing library on your Linux distribution and version, and install it. Then restart the Charon-SSP Agent and check its status.
