Installation on OpenSUSE Leap 15.2 (for support)

Java 8 Oracle Requirement When Installing on OpenSUSE Leap 15.2

Written by Petr Pech
  • PostgreSQL dependency conflict — on SUSE it is not possible to install older versions without version 12; after running "update-alternatives --config postgresql" and selecting a version <11, flexibee.rpm reports a dependency issue

  • when installing with --nodeps, FlexiBee can be launched and connected to a remote server, but the local database cannot be started and FlexiBee does not offer the option to create the first user — this is a Java issue; again, run "update-alternatives --config java" and select version 1.8

Solution:

Uninstall the Java version bundled with the distribution and install JRE 1.8 directly from the Oracle website, then install FlexiBee with --nodeps
