Apache 2.2.21 (problem installing httpd-devel)

[Pauli Jokela]

Hey,

I'm running CentOS 5.7 with the latest updates, as well as the latest Plesk version (10.4?).

I need to install httpd-devel in order to compile a certain Apache module, but I'm unable to install it due to dependency errors.

Apparently, the Apache version installed is httpd-2.2.21-11092115.x86_64 while it should be something like httpd-2.2.3-53.el5.centos.3.x86_64.



Running yum install httpd reports the following:
Package matching httpd-2.2.3-53.el5.centos.3.x86_64 already installed.

/usr/sbin/httpd -v reports the following:
Server version: Apache/2.2.21 (Unix)
Server built: Sep 21 2011 15:13:03

rpm -qi httpd | grep Vendor reports the following:
Version: 2.2.21
Vendor: Parallels



So currently, using the version of Apache supplied by Parallels, I'm unable to install the httpd-devel package due to a version mismatch.

Could Parallels provide the httpd-devel package for the corresponding version?

I already tried using the Parallels Installer/Updater to switch from Apache SNI to plain old Apache, but it's not letting me do that. Only reason I wanted to try that, was because I thought that the other version (without SNI) would've used a "public" release of Apache, instead of a custom Parallels built version.

Hi,

Same problem here... Did you find a solution ?

Sadly no, still waiting on official word from Parallels. :-(

Not sure why you have Apache 2.2.21 version. Here is official 2.2.23 version in 10.4.4 updates - http://64.131.90.31/PSA_10.4.4/update-rpm-CentOS-5-i386/

httpd-2.2.3-53.el5.centos.3.i386.rpm
httpd-devel-2.2.3-53.el5.centos.3.i386.rpm

Hi,

I have installed my serveur with OVH Plesk 10 Installer as naturally. This is how I got Apache 2.2.21.
Do you have the x86_64 version ?

httpd 2.2.21 with the -devel package is available in the atomic-testing repo right now. You can install/upgrade with:

wget -q -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic |sh

yum --enablerepo=atomic-testing upgrade httpd

and/or

yum --enablerepo=atomic-testing install httpd-devel

Hi,

I have tried what atomicturtle described but I still have the error :
Error: Missing Dependency: httpd = 2.2.3-53.el5.centos.3 is needed by package httpd-devel-2.2.3-53.el5.centos.3.i386 (updates)
Error: Missing Dependency: httpd = 2.2.21-1.el5.art is needed by package httpd-devel-2.2.21-1.el5.art.x86_64 (atomic-testing)
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

I hope someone can sort this out because I'm getting lost...

Regards,

Try yum --enablerepo=atomic-testing upgrade httpd httpd-devel

oh and make sure your yum config isnt excluding anything.

 

[AssaneS]

Tried that. Here is what it says :

Simple, reliable solution:

* Creating repository mirror for APACHE_2.2.21:
# mkdir APACHE_2.2.21
# rsync -avu rsync://rsync.autoinstall.plesk.com/autoinstall/APACHE_2.2.21/ APACHE_2.2.21/
(the output will contain downloaded rpm packages for different OS/architectures).

* Install httpd-devel packages:
rpm -Uvh APACHE_2.2.21/dist-rpm-CentOS-5-x86_64/contrib/httpd-devel-2.2.21-11092115.x86_64.rpm

Select corresponding package file for your OS/architecture to install.
Be happy!

Easiest and most Reliable Solution:

1. Create a yum repo with the following content.
=======================
[Plesk-Apache]
name=Plesk Apache
baseurl=http://autoinstall.plesk.com/APACHE_2.2.21/dist-rpm-CentOS-5-x86_64/
enabled=1
=======================
(For 32bit - http://autoinstall.plesk.com/APACHE_2.2.21/dist-rpm-CentOS-5-i386/)

2. Run "yum clean all".

The httpd-devel-2.2.21 package will now be available in the yum repo.
