I'm trying to install Vertica 6.0.2-0 on a RedHat EL 6.5. It's a single-node installation.

I used the command bellow:
install_vertica -s HOSTNAME -u USER -p PASS -g GROUP -l /home/USER -d /data -L /tmp/vlicense.dat

During the installation process occured the error:
Unable to resolve network interfaces (/opt/vertica/.../DBfunctions.py, line 415, in uniqueBroadCastAddresses)

Is there some different parameter for single-node installations?

If I try to install using LOCALHOST the process finishing successfully.

Hi Mameli,
Does the node identify itself with the hostname you provided when you run the 'hostname" command? Please also check whether your /etc/hosts/ is configured based on the guidelines provided here: https://my.vertica.com/docs/6.1.x/HTML/index.htm#2104.htm

The problem was related to the UTF. Using the correct set the installation was ok.
