*
Command Not Found
If you see an error such as:
runautoinstallssl.sh: command not found
This usually means that the AutoInstall SSL agent is not installed or the command is not available in the system PATH.
To fix this:
- Verify that the agent installation was completed successfully. If the agent is missing, reinstall it using the installation command provided on your GoGetSSL order page
- Run the command using the full path if required (for example /opt/autoinstallssl/aisagent/runautoinstallssl.sh)
-
*
Permission Denied
If you receive permission-related errors during the AutoInstall SSL agent installation, such as:
mkdir: cannot create directory '/opt/autoinstallssl': Permission denied Downloading file… Extracting file… tar (child): /opt/autoinstallssl/aisagent.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now tar: Child returned status 2 tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
This indicates that the script is being executed without sufficient privileges, and AutoInstall SSL requires root or sudo access.
To fix this:
- Run the installation commands using sudo
- Ensure the user has administrative permissions on the server
-
*
Operation Not Permitted
In case you are getting the operation permission errors when running the AutoInstall SSL Agent, such as:
chmod: changing permissions of 'shellscript/': Operation not permitted chmod: changing permissions of 'shellscript/centos': Operation not permitted chmod: changing permissions of 'shellscript/centos/autoupdatecronjob.sh': Operation not permitted chmod: changing permissions of 'shellscript/centos/createautoupdatecron.sh': Operation not permitted
This normally means that the agent needs root-level permission.
To fix this:
- Run the execution commands using sudo
- Ensure the user has administrative permissions on the server
