Yum PHP Installation

athomas · 06-03-2009, 01:03 PM

Hopefully this will be my last stupid question for a while :-)

I'm trying to install PHP via Yum on Fedora 10 over SSH. It gets to the very end and shows:

Code:

 --> Missing Dependency: apr-util-ldap is needed by package httpd-2.2.11-2.fc10.i386 (updates)
Error: Missing Dependency: apr-util-ldap is needed by package httpd-2.2.11-2.fc10.i386 (updates)

How do I install them? I tried typing the actual package names like "yum packagename install" but it didn't work. What am I doing wrong?

Also getting this when trying to start Apache:

Code:

[root@67439 bin]# apachectl start
-bash: apachectl: command not found

Followed the compiling tutorial here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/install.html

Edit: Fixed this by doing:

cd /usr/local/apache2/bin
cp apachectl /etc/init.d/httpd

Now service httpd start/stop/restart/status works.

Still having the initial problems with the yum php install though.

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

How did you install apache - was it from source? Installing with yum should have created the necessary startup script.

I fixed the startup problem, read the edited text above.

Still having problems with the PHP install.

Thats wasn't the question though. If you installed from source, you may have caused yourself headaches in the php department.

Yeah I downloaded the tarball, did this...

gzip -d (filename, I forget it...)
tar xvf (filename)
./configure
make
make install

Then did the file copying, then started the service. Works fine. It's giving the error in the initial post.

Then I'd try removing the original apache with "yum remove httpd". Not quite sure what else it will try to remove, so take care.

Well Yum install Apache has never worked. What I need to know is where to get the two dependencies at... Google turned up nothing at all.

I'm not sure why you need it, but try http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/se...=apr-util-ldap

well

Code:

yum groupinstall "Web Server"

is the easiest way . BUT , there always is one, i like to have( Apache,MySQL ,php, PhpMyAdmin, AWStats, and GeekLog, other things ) all in the same folder( /opt/www ) and not scattered all over the system . So i do a source build for everything . but you WILL need to build apache with the php turned on ( that is default - if i remember correctly . so build php FIRST.
as i recall this is the build order
php
mysql
phpMyAdmin
Apache
AwStats
( the cms) - my case geeklog- with gallery2

---------- added -------
also i tell everybody that wants to install apache to
Build everything - from source - the first 12 installs
that way YOU WILL know HOW TO CONFIGURE it and LOCK IT DOWN .

Output is similar to before...

Code:

httpd-2.2.11-2.fc10.i386 from updates has depsolving problems
  --> Missing Dependency: apr-util-ldap is needed by package httpd-2.2.11-2.fc10.i386 (updates)

Error: Missing Dependency: apr-util-ldap is needed by package httpd-2.2.11-2.fc10.i386 (updates)

I don't know what the problem is... it's a Fedora 10 install.

What does "yum repolist" give?

Anyone have anything for this? I'm a bit confused.
