I've got a new 5.5 64-bit install that has been updated to 5.6 this morning. While installing nspr-devel through yum i get stuck at the following dependency:
nspr-devel-4.8.6-1.el5.x86_64 from base has depsolving problems
--> Missing Dependency: nspr = 4.8.6-1.el5 is needed by package nspr-devel-4.8.6-1.el5.x86_64 (base)
nspr-devel-4.8.6-1.el5.i386 from base has depsolving problems
I have a program that needs kernel headers. The machine is running CentOS release 5.4 (Final). uname -r output: 2.6.18-164.9.1.el5 When I try to do a - yum install kernel-devel or kernel-headers I get: kernel-headers i386 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5 updates 1.0 M Why don't they match?
i'm trying to rebuild mplayer and facing the same error - lame-devel package can't be found as when i try to use rpmbuild. I'm not sure why and how to fix it. Here are steps and information:
I am trying to install the mysql workbench and it is looking for libzib-devel. I can not seem to find it in any yum repo. Does anyone know where I could find it?
The OFED installer says that it wants the sysfsutils-devel rpm, and we are not finding it. Do we just need to set up the right yum repository to locate it? OR - has CentOS 5.5 replaced this rpm with libsysfs-devel or similar?
I show # rpm -qa | grep sysfs sysfsutils-2.0.0-6 libsysfs-2.0.0-6
This is on a new Rocks 5.4 installation that includes CentOS 5.5.
Anyone know if a more complete poppler-devel can be found for CentOS 5.5? There seems to be an enormous number of missing files from poppler-devel (page.h and PDFDoc.h are just two examples) resulting in applications that require it refusing to compile.
We have a networked L7780 and I cannot find the dependancies below to satisfy the hplip (3.9.2) installer. Centos 5.2 Server - full development environment etc. Standard Centos repos + rpmforge.

I'm working on a Fedora 13 server trying to intal some soft following the same steps I did with some other server with Fedora 12 ( not 13, like the new one ).First problem that I found was with 'yum install kernel-devel'
Response: Nothing to do ! Then I tryed 'yum -v info kernel devel' Response: Installed Packages Name : kernel-devel Arch : x86_64 code....
Second problem that is stopping me is 'yum install gcc' Some dpendency problem that can not be solved. Tryed --skeep-broken but nothing is installed.I don't have gcc on my sistem.
from what I understand kernel-devel does not bring in ALL the header files for install modules. so what i would like to know is how to install true headers instead of using kernel-devel. I found one tutorial, but it was way out of date.
I was trying to compile a new (stable) kernel and got an error when I tried "make xconfi packages and uninstalling 81 packages (will attatch pix once home). I'm using Fedora14 with KDE packages and uninstalling 81 packages. I'm using Fedora14 with KDE so much stuff to get qt-devel?
I found out that to compile my new kernel - which requires 'qmake' - I need to install the "qt-devel" package. Doing so - according to the package manager - would require uninstalling 81 packages and downgrading almost 50 other packages.
I'm running under Fedora 14 w/ KDE and it's asking to remove things like Amarok and OpenOffice. Am I missing a step or something?
On F13 i386 inside Virtualbox. Host is a Win7 x64 box.
This may just be more idle curiosity than anything else since the server still works. . . but it's really bothering me because I can't explain it.
My (limited) understanding is that the devel files are just the source files and shouldn't actually affect peformance.
Yet, prior to installing httpd-devel (and its dependencies), /etc/init.d/httpd restart takes about 2 seconds total. After installing httpd-devel, the "stopping" phase of the httpd restart take 5-7 seconds (which seems really long when you're just sitting there waiting on it.
yum install httpd-devel also installs the following for dependencies: db4-cxx db4-devel cyrus-sasl-devel apr-devel apr-util-devel openldap-devel expat-devel
All but one of those are devel files as well. And here's the real kicker: Uninstalling them through YUM doesn't put things back to normal (even after reboot).
I'm no linux expert. But I wouldn't think installing devel files would have this effect or any effect like this since they're just source code files (?). Can anyone explain what's happening or give me tips on how I can watch the apache process stop and see what's hanging it up?
I have an i5 Thinkpad running Windows 7 64-bit. VT is enabled in the BIOS. I have installed vmware server v 2.0.2 but am unable to install Centos 5.5 x86_64 as a guest OS. The steps that I followed are as follows:1. Created a new VM, specifying RHEL 5 64-bit as the intended guest OS (per vmware documentation - Centos is not available as a selection2. Downloaded all 8 iso files for Centos v5.5 64-bit3. Modified the CD/DVD drive to 'connect at power' and use an iso with the path pointing to the x86_64 iso 1 of 8When I power up the VM, the console window displays 'ISOLINUX 3.11 2005-09-02 Copyright (C) 1994-2005 H. Peter Anvin' and nothing else. The installation splash screen never appears. As a test, I downloaded the first of 7 iso files for the 32-bit version of Centos 5.5 and pointed the CD/DVD drive to that iso. In that case, the installation starts as expected. I would really like to get the 64-bit version installed and running.
I have a problem to install the VMware Server (VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.x86_64.rpm) on "Fedora 13 Desktop Edition 64-bit".I traied all tips I found, but nothing was OK.Please look my linux configuration and the error messages:

I have a problem installing RRDTool on Centos 5.4 and it will always come up error dependencies cairo-devel and pangocairo but I already installed this packages.

I tried to install centos 5.3 on my dell pc. I downloaded the large 3.69 gb dvd iso. file from 5 seperate mirror sites and burned the disk images. When I boot it did the disk checks and they have been all good. The problem I'm having is it starts the boot process lets me get to the partition settings and then goes to formating the harddrive then when it starts the install part it goes for a few minutes then gives me a error that it cant find a file (not allways the same file) and says the install sorce is missing a file or is corrupted. This is why I have spent a few days downloading from different mirror sites to see if that was the issue, they all cant be bad.
When I first attempted the install it installed grub for multi boots I dont think this has any problem with finding the files but who knows. I looked up on how to uninstall grub and you can not from the info on there site.The box is a dell pent 4 with one gig ram, two ide hard drives and it ran windows xp. I intalled fedora on the box and it ran fine w/ no install errors I just need to try and set up a server so I can install webgui's cms webhosting wre software. In there forums they said centos 5 is the best os for what I want to do.
I've downloaded the YUM RPM to a flash drive and double-clicked it in an attempt to install the RPM. Package Manager reported that the RPM is already installed. Oddly enough, when I try to open Package Manager itself, I get an error, "Unable to retrieve repository metadata. This could be caused by not having a network connection available." and the >Details are "Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: c5-media. Please verify its path and try again." (A network connection IS available...I'm posting from the server, right now!)
If I click on the Repository Manager button, I get the attached picture and assume that sll is well with those different configurations.
I have a very urgent problem that is nailing me down for days now: I was running CentOS 5.7 x86_64 very successful in a VM here. Now i wanted to install it on a native system here. So i burned the 8 ISOs to 8 CDs.
When i started the installation however, it is booting correct, (continue in GUI mode) and then finally asking me for installation language/keyboard layout, then it comes up with "CD Not Found" - "The CentOS CD was not found in any of your CDROM drives. Please insert the CentOS CD and press OK to retry" - what i did, several times, without success.
Next try: The DVD image. So i installed a torrent client, downloaded both ISOs, burned them several hours later -> same result. after going through the first steps (selecting install language and keyboard layout): "CD Not Found" - "The CentOS CD was not found in any of your CDROM drives. Please insert the CentOS CD and press OK to retry" - what i did, several times, without success.
So, last try: The NetInstall image. Downloaded the ISO, burned it, and yah! Finally, i can install CentOS. It took almost 6 hours to get through the installation. I got one error (Can't download 'something i don't remember'), i said retry, and it continued. So but now it hangs after startup. Mouse cursor is visible, blue nice 'wait' anim is playing, that's it.
I'd really want to reinstall it, and i don't trust the net install (i probably screwed up something else) - so how can i fix this damn CD drive issue? is the drive (oem something standard IDE thing) not supported or what?
I need to install Eclipse CDT 4.0 (or 5) for centos 5. I have the final version of centos 5.3.
I downloaded the Eclipse CDT version from here CDT 4.0 for Fedora and I tried to install the RPM as root.
# rpm -i eclipse-cdt-4.0.3-1.fc9.i386.rpm. The result for this command is: warning: eclipse-cdt-4.0.3-1.fc9.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4f2a6fd2 error: Failed dependencies: eclipse-cvs-client is needed by eclipse-cdt-4.0.3-1.fc9.i386
A problem with installing CentOS 5.3 from DVD ... I downloaded the CentOS-5.3-i386-bin-DVD.iso, after recording an image on DVD Start the installation, selecting Installation Method, chose Local CDROM - Message on my screen: "CD Not Found"
Let me start by saying I'm new to CentOS. But we're getting a server with CentOS soon so I'm experimenting on a virtual machine for the moment. One of the things I'm going to test requires me to have wine installed on the CentOS box. I found that to install wine I need to use the command "yum install wine". When doing this nothing really happens. I get the following output on the screen:
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: centos.crazyfrogs.org * updates: base: centos.crazyfrogs.org * addons: base: centos.crazyfrogs.org * extras: base: centos.crazyfrogs.org Setting up Install Process Parsing package install arguments No package wine available Nothing to do.
I've already issued the "yum upgrade" command but my problem still remains.
Does anybody know of this issue or is there anybody who can help me with this?
