problem while installing virtual box in centos 5.4
hi to all!
I was trying to install VM virtual box from the rpm file . It was then that i got following errors:
warning: only V3 signatures can be verified, skipping V4 signature
error: Failed dependencies:
libcrypto.so.6 is needed by VirtualBox-3.2-3.2.4_62467_rhel5-1.i386
libpng12.so.0(PNG12_0) is needed by VirtualBox-3.2-3.2.4_62467_rhel5-1.i386
libpython2.4.so.1.0 is needed by VirtualBox-3.2-3.2.4_62467_rhel5-1.i386
python(abi) = 2.4 is needed by VirtualBox-3.2-3.2.4_62467_rhel5-1.i386
rtld(GNU_HASH) is needed by VirtualBox-3.2-3.2.4_62467_rhel5-1.i386
please i'd be glad if you provide me with some help
i tried the command you suggested but it didn't affect anyhow.
But i found out that the centos in which i am trying to install VB is 4.8 and the rpm: VirtualBox-3.2-3.2.4_62467_rhel5-1.i386.rpm is dor centos 5..
May be thats why i am having problem ?
all,
the problem i was having about virtual box is solved after i installed rpm for 4.
is it possible to upgrade centos 4 to centos 5 without affecting the operation of my server.
thanks.
You're going to have some sort of outage during an upgrade, no matter how you do it, on ANY operating system. It's far better to do a clean installation, than run an upgrade, though.
