Topic: Apache won't upgrade to 1.13.19

[Mahmood Al-Yousif]

Following the HowTo to upgrade Apache to 1.3.19 to get rid of the .pdf problem with the 1.3.14 version of Apache, I cannot get it to upgrade:

I do:

rpm -Uvh apache-1.3.19-5.i386.rpm mod_ssl-2.8.1-5.i386.rpm

I get the following error:

failed dependencies:
   libcrypto.so.1
   libssl.so.1

Both of these are available in openssl-0.9.6-9.i386.rpm, however on including this file in with the apache and mod_ssl upgrade command, rpm throws even a bigger tantrum saying that i conflicts with a bunch of .so.0 files used by php 406 and others.

Any ideas on how to do the upgrade properly?

Try this instead:

rpm -Uvh --force apache-1.3.19-5.i386.rpm mod_ssl-2.8.1-5.i386.rpm

Where did you get the mod_ssl RPM from?  It looks like that's one that's expecting a newer version of openssl than is installed with e-smith.

Hi,

I updated ALL the bugs/updates today on my server from the e-smith ftp site and followed their instructions to the letter-it may pay to start with the oldest fix and work your way up to the newest one as I encountered no problems that way.

Hi Don, got it from the same source as suggested in the How-To on e-Smith.org

[Mahmood Al-Yousif]

Nope, even with the force option it throws out the:

  libcrypto.so.1 is needed by mod_ssl-2.8.1-5
  libssl.so.1 is needed by mod_ssl-2.8.1-5

So back to the drawing board I'm afraid..

This *is* a fresh installation of eSmith. What I did is upgrade PHP to 406, MySQL to 3.23.41 following the HowTo docs on this site.

Any other ideas welcome!

Thanx DJ. Downloaded all the updates and installed them okay, however the apache upgrade is still bad. I am in the process of redownloading those now to retry.

[Mahmood Al-Yousif]

Well it's done! I think it was a corrupted .rpm problem. I've downloaded both apache and mod_ssl from the e-smith 4.1.2 update ftp server and installed like a charm (without resorting to --force).

Interestingly, the old apache rpm was 534kb while the one in ftp is 539kb
the mod_ssl was 388 but in ftp is 389.

Anyway, I hope that this will help someone.

regards and thank you all once again
