Hello. I've never been very successful with SAV on Linux, and am now having trouble with the new SEP 12.1.5 on RHEL 6.5.
Facts:
* RHEL 6.5, uname -a shows 2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Sep 16 01:56:35 EDT 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
* Oracle Java 1.7 (installed from yum). JCE seems ok, too.
* glibc.i686 and libgcc.i686 and libX11.i686 are all installed.
* Install SEP from rpm, with install.sh -i
* Install seems successful, but with the complaint that "AP Malfunctioning." I'd guess that's about liveupdate.
* The shield appears on the desktop's "panel" (as root)
Now here's my problem: I can right click the shield to get a SEP status window with Symantec's colors. But I see boxes instead of text. Buttons are where they should be, but their text is boxes rather than letters. I imagine this is a language or a font issue. To make matters more interesting, the "machine" is a VM in our university's virtual machine farm, using vmware. Both the Windows desktop vSphere client and the new vSphere web client show the same garbled SEP status window.
So I can't determine what's up with SEP. I'd guess it's running, but with no or outdated definitions. Our campus prepared the installer, btw. I don't know much about this aspect of the SEP distribition -- I assume the university's put some config matter in the installation package for licensing or management info.
Help?
PS: Is there a command line client and/or reporting tool? What about starting X of an SSH session?
