I'm trying to install php-devel on my CentOS 6.3 VPS and get a failed dependencies test. From phpinfos(): SYSTEM Linux 2.6.32-279.5.2.el6.x86_64 #1 x86_64 NTS

error: Failed dependencies:

  • php(x86-64) = 5.4.6-1.el6.remi is needed by php-devel-5.4.6-1.el6.remi.x86_64

I've tried the following RPM packages:

  • php54w-devel-5.4.6-1.w6.x86_64.rpm
  • php-devel-5.4.6-1.el6.remi.i686.rpm
  • php-devel-5.4.6-1.el6.remi.x86_64.rpm

One of the above package gave me this:

root@sv1 [/tmp]# rpm -Uvh php-devel-5.4.6-1.el6.remi.i686.rpm
warning: php-devel-5.4.6-1.el6.remi.i686.rpm: Header V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 00f97f56: NOKEY

I don't know how to fix this error and download all the dependencies. Thank you.

You seem to be trying to install packages from the remi repository (and remi-test for PHP 5.4) but the repository isn't enabled or not present on your system.

If you haven't already installed the remi repository, do that now by installing the appropriate remi-release package.

Then you need to edit /etc/yum.repos.d/remi.repo and change enabled=0 to enabled=1 for the repositories you wish to use. For PHP 5.4 on EL 6, you must enable both remi and remi-test.

You also need to have the EPEL repository installed in order to use remi, though it seems you already have that one.

  • I have downloaded the rpm file on rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/3/srodzaj/1/search/php-devel. Thaks for your answer, but i's not working. Still got the same message "No package php-devel available." :( (Cache is up to date) Sep 10, 2012 at 5:28

    You need to both install and enable the remi and remi-test repositories. Then run yum clean all and then update yum repolist in your question. Sep 10, 2012 at 5:31
  • Sorry, post updated. :) Sep 10, 2012 at 5:36
  • Hm, I see your update. Something is very broken on your system, and I admit I'm not quite sure what it is. Sep 10, 2012 at 5:37
  • 1
    yum should be finding the package, since it's in the repository. That it doesn't seem to be finding any packages is worrying. How many months has it been since you successfully yum upgraded? Sep 10, 2012 at 5:47

Check your yum.conf to see if there is an exclude argument, eg.:

exclude=apache* httpd* mod_* mysql* MySQL* da_* *ftp* exim* sendmail* bind-chroot*

This is sometimes set by default when using for example DirectAdmin or other control panel apps.

I have opened a ticket with my VPS provider and cPanel. No update for now. Answer above accepted because it is the normal way to do it. My server is just crazy :)

You need to recompile cpanel using /scripts/easyapache in order to enable extra modules/extensions.
