 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Please advise

Thanks in anticipation

I did what this link suggest but above is the result

Please advise

Best regards

maybe i'm not the best to answer this but i'll try some more.

what version of centos or redhat are you using?

Code:

uname -a

cat /etc/*-release

it seems to me it depends on a php version 5.3.xxx but a 5.4.xxx installed.

Code:

# uname -a

Linux domainName 2.6.32-504.3.3.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Dec 17 01:55:02 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux





# cat /etc/*-release

CentOS release 6.6 (Final)

LSB_VERSION=base-4.0-amd64:base-4.0-noarch:core-4.0-amd64:core-4.0-noarch

CentOS release 6.6 (Final)

CentOS release 6.6 (Final)

thanks again

does "yum update" work without error? try that then install. if not i read online that "REMI" repo has a newer version (and might be compatible).

skip all the EPEL and IUS sections and go to the REMI sections: http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_c...os-and-red-hat

BUT DON'T COUNT ON ME KNOWING FOR SURE, i never had this issue for php-mcrypt myself.

Thanks again for your favorable reply

I used yum update command successfully but what it did it updated all module and install all plesk modules as art.* files. Now Plesk is not running its own modules but separate modules installed as 3rd party software that ruined my server. I strongly advise to not use "yum update" command in any case when Plesk is installed.

yum update and then tried yum install php-mcrypt but with no luck

Best regards

oh goodness, i'm so sorry. i've never ever had a situation where updating was actually bad. again, so sorry.

someone, please help this poor fellow.
