Nitrofish · 04-22-2010, 02:55 PM

I am trying to install php-mbstring on my CentOS 5 box and do not know how to resolve the dependencies issues. Can someone please help?

# yum install php-mbstring

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
php-mbstring-5.1.6-24.el5_4.5.i386 from updates has depsolving problems
--> Missing Dependency: php-common = 5.1.6-24.el5_4.5 is needed by package php-mbstring-5.1.6-24.el5_4.5.i386 (updates)
Error: Missing Dependency: php-common = 5.1.6-24.el5_4.5 is needed by package php-mbstring-5.1.6-24.el5_4.5.i386 (updates)

What repositories are you using? I have installed php-mbstring on CentOS5.4 box through yum without issues?

I was trying to find what repository was used to install php-mbstring but yum is unable to tell. It just tells the package info and that it is installed. But if you can give the list of repositories you have I can compare it mine and tell where it was installed from.

Do you have plain server, or any control panel installed on it ?

What has anything to do with that? OP has got issues with dependencies that are not available with the repositories that are already installed. Anything that is possible with control panel can also be done with commands. May be better.
