Installing glibc on centos4 fedora core 4?


Sorry for the n00b question. I had ordered a couple VPS for playing around with cpanel. Just for fun to learn a few things

When I go to install cPanel it tells me that glibc is missing. It does it on both boxes. Can somebody point me to how to install glibc on these VPS systems?

Thanks

Am I right in thinking that cpanel is a commercial application with no source code available? In that case whoever sold it to you should fix your problem.

I don't know anything about cpanel, what maroonbaboon said is probably true. Just so you know for future reference, If you want to install glibc, or any other dependency for that matter, just search for it on http://www.rpmfind.net. Download the rpm you want and install it.

That's an option. Alterrnatively, you can find the glibc packages on your CentOS and FC4 install media. They both come with glibc.

One of many.

What daihard suggested would be the better solution provided your install media has the package your looking for. Usually its a good idea to use the ones that come with the distro. glibc should definitely be on there, but I can't speak from first hand experience. I just usually download the packages I need because I am too lazy to reach for a CD ...then put it in the computer ...then mount it. Do whatever feels comfertable to you though.

I agree. I'm pretty lazy myself so I usually resort to running "yum update" instead of digging through the pile of my CD/DVD media.
