Problem

Re-installing an API Portal 762, after a cleaning up procedure led to

Mon May 27 08:17:01 EDT 2019

Generate SSL certificate for apache.

There is already a key in the given directory

warning: %post(apiportal-joomla-7.6.2-1.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 1

Non-fatal POSTIN scriptlet failure in rpm package apiportal-joomla-7.6.2-1.x86_64

and the installation failed by not creating the tables in the datatabase and not starting the apache server.

Resolution

The resolution was to clean up the certificate and the key from the previous installation.

rm /etc/httpd/conf/server.crt;

find /etc/ -type f -iname *.key

/etc/pki/tls/private/localhost.key

/etc/trusted-key.key

/etc/unbound/dlv.isc.org.key

/etc/unbound/root.key

/etc/httpd/conf/server.key

[root@tamron2470 portal762]# rm /etc/httpd/conf/server.key

rm: remove regular file ‘/etc/httpd/conf/server.key’? Y

Doing so, the installation completed ok.
