Seems like few users have same issue but no where it says what could be the fix. One ME forum one post says there are no pre requisite and java comes within the package. Anyone installed it before on Linux?

[scottalanmiller]

I did, but long ago.

[scottalanmiller]

After it has done that, is java installed?

# java -version

[Ambarishrh]

Doesnt seems like the installer even start the java setup.

#java -version
bash: java: command not found

Even if i want to install Java, not sure which version i need to install!

Ok tried on another centos this time version 7 and installation finished without any issues

I always install the latest. It's very rare that that isn't the right answer. That or I use the one that is part of the OS. Only two choices that I normally use. You don't want a specifically unpatched version.

I installed ManageEngine Service desk and found that the change management is an addon, couldn't find that on their site. Emailed their team but no reply!

Zoho seems to be failing a lot, recently.

Oh dear.

Now I need to look for another tool! :S

Anyone used spiceworks for change management? Haven't used SW in a long time, so any tips would be really helpful. If this can be done on SW, i will sign up for the free hosted ticketing option!

I know i mentioned a self hosted one will be ideal choice, but doesn't seems like a simple system available. There are systems which is much much more than change managememnt system or its expensive
