Werk #14739: Regression: Activate agent controller daemon on Debian based systems

Component Checks & agents
Title Regression: Activate agent controller daemon on Debian based systems
Date Sep 14, 2022
Checkmk Edition Checkmk Raw (CRE)
Checkmk Version 2.1.0p12
Level Trivial Change
Class Bug Fix
Compatibility Incompatible - Manual interaction might be required

This is a regression that occurs with Checkmk 2.1.0p11.

When installing the prepackaged check-mk-agent_2.1.0p11-1_all.deb agent package on a Linux host, the installation scripts miss to activate the agent controller daemon, that is responsible for providing the agent port.
Agent bakery packages (including the VANILLA package) are not affected.

You can activate it manually by calling the scripts /var/lib/cmk-agent/scripts/cmk-agent-useradd.sh and /var/lib/cmk-agent/scripts/super-server/setup trigger (in that order) on affected hosts after agent package installation.
