I have installed the rhel4 in my server, ready to install the Mysql 5*version.
i want to install it through the rpm packet,but there is a problem ,it indicated that i have to install perl(DBI).
Here is the error message:
warning: MySQL-server-standard-5.0.22-0.rhel4.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 5072e1f5
error: Failed dependencies:
perl(DBI) is needed by MySQL-server-standard-5.0.22-0.rhel4.i386
Suggested resolutions:
perl-DBI-1.40-5.i386.rpm

Then I found the perl-DBI-1.40-5.i386.rpm.
execute the command :rpm -ivh perl-DBI-1.40-5.i386.rpm

warning: perl-DBI-1.40-5.src.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4f2a6fd2
error: cannot create %sourcedir /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES

I just don't know how to solve it?
Thank you !

Check for the existance of /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES and if it doesn't exist su - root and mkdir /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES.

It sounds like it's looking for that directory, not finding it, and lacking privleges to create it.

Let me know if this doesn't help.

i have the same problem
i uninstall an install all
redhat enterprise linux version 4 without mysql
i download
MySQL-server-standard-5.0.24a-0.rhel4.i386.rpm
and run
# rpm -i MySQL-server-standard-5.0.24a-0.rhel4.i386.rpm
and the problem began
