I am installing a cluster which is hidden from the rest of the world and there is no router either froma general login node. I would therefore require a local repository of the updates to CentOS5.4. When I checked I only found instructions for a full mirror. As I have no room and neither the human resources to setup and maintain a full-blown mirror, this is not a solution. However if I try to find updates for 5.4 to download in a repository-type of way I fail to find a solution. Maybe I am just not looking in the right places.
configure: error: Cannot find libmysqlclient under /usr.
Note that the MySQL client library is not bundled anymore!
since im installing it from depency package a libmysqlclient package is not present in default centos repository so that i needed to add my php repository to get the issue solved .can somebody say where i can get php centos repository
I don't want to disable it... I want to completely remove it, so it doesn't sneak back later. I don't see a yum --removerepo and Googling leads to instructions to disable.
I am going through creating a document on how to install Zoneminder on CentOS.So I decided I would do a new build and capture the output, dump it to a file, then post it.However, seems like sometime over the past 10 days or so when I did it last, one of the repos I use to download other software is now gone.I use this as an additional repository:Except, now it is not there anymore. Does anyone know its whereabouts? :)Some of the things I have downloaded from there which dont seem to be in the yum repos are: git, ffmpeg, htop
I saw in CentOs Documentation that the only Tomcat package available in CentOs 5 was Tomcat 5, I would like to know why CentOs 5 didn't support Tomcat 6. And what's more I would like to know whether last version of Tomcat (6.0.18) can be installed on CentOs 5, and if we can trust installation tutorial we can read on centOs How 2 page? And in addition, could you tell me why Tomcat 6 isn't provided in CentOs Yum repository ... Is there a no working reason?
I have managed to blow up something trying to follow this:http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/RPMForgeHere is what i get when i try: yum update
Yum answers that it does not contain lighttpd or lua in the repositories (base,updates,addons,extra). Where can I find a repository containing these packages or should I revert to building myself ?
I'm making my own yum repository - firstly so that all the machines I administer can be updatedvia the internal network, secondly so that I can test any updates on a spare machine before passing them on, and thirdly so that I can add my own repo for internal software.
I've created the necessary folders under my webserver, and used rsync to update them from my local CentOS mirror, following the instructions at [URL]
I notice it says to run "createrepo" on the base repository, created by copying the rpms from release DVD.
When I rsynced the updates repo, but I notice that the files in repodata are very small. In fact, having a look inside them, filelists.xml contains no file details. But if I run createrepo in the updates directory, filelists.xml gets lots of file details inside it.
I wondered if maybe the local mirror hadn't been updated properly, but checking against mirror.centos.org shows that has the same files.
how does the (real, live, CentOS) updates repo work when there is nothing in the filelists?
The install did work without errors and is listed correctly on yum but isn't working when I test a php script.
So now I need to downgrade back to the php 5.1 but yum is now stuck on this atomic repository, how do I get back to the Centos repository and downgrade PHP to 5.1?
I need to install some software which allows me to read chm files. I cannot seem to find the appropriate package in the base repository. How can I install such a reader?
Since last Friday I get the following error when trying to upgrade packages with yum: [URL]: [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error (111, 'Connection refused')> Trying other mirror." The content of dag.repo:
i am trying to upload project to a cvs repository installed on centos 5.4. the problem i am facing is that certain folders from the repository dont get uploaded to the cvs. i dont know the exact reason why? i checked the permission on the folder and the file under the hierarchy but there was no issue , all other projects were sucessfully uploaded .
Recently i was able to setup a server which can work as a local yum repocitory in my envornment.However when i tried to update the packages in my repocitory using rsync from mirrors.kernel.org its giving a timeout error. The error i am getting is "rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(107) [receiver=2.6.8]" I am having repocitory for centos 4.4 and 5.2(both 32 and 64 bit versions)
As this link advises [URL]my yum will not work now because of a change in the versioning scheme.How do I manually update my metadata so that I can start getting updates again, this is on CentOS 5.3.
So Im using CentOS 5, trying to install phpmyadmin for my server. Ive done it before but had to re-image my server because of some networking issues. This time when I go to do it I add two more repositories and go through and give all the appropriate ( I believed ) priorities. When I try to install phpmyadmin, I am getting messages that I need php5.2. When I try to install the dependencies, I get the message that i have "427 packages excluded due to repository priority restrictions." How do I fix this?
[URL] This is the guide I used to install phpmyadmin. I installed all the pre-reqs and Ive double and triple checked them all . . . . Ive also installed another repository, utterramblings. All to no avail. If code from the config files are needed I can pull them
Can I ask if it is possible to add the newest version of rrdtool to CentOS repositories? Now I'm using 1.3.8 but there is already 1.4.5. We have some policy so I'm not able to install it not via repo way...
