  • Dependency Problem when Installing Spacewalk on RHEL 6.1

    Posted on

    I have a fresh install of RHEL 6.1 attempting to install the latest version of spacewalk.

     

    I followed the install steps very closely, however I am running into an issue that I can't resolve.

     

    https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToInstall

     

    Per the wiki you're asked to install epel, spacewalk, and the jpackage repos. Configure postgreSQL, exclude cobbler-web, and then install spacewalk-postgresql and dependencies.

     

    But as soon as I run yum install spacewalk-postgresql the following errors occur:

     

    Error: Package: spacewalk-sniglets-1.5.19-1.el6.noarch (spacewalk)
               Requires: perl(Params::Validate)
    Error: Package: nocpulse-common-2.1.24-1.el6.noarch (spacewalk)

    Error: Package: perl-NOCpulse-Probe-1.184.9-1.el6.noarch (spacewalk)
               Requires: perl(SOAP::Lite)

     

    I initially thought this to be an error on my part due missing packages since I only ran the minimal installation. However, after a couple of hours of looking into this I seem to hit a dead end.

     

    Is there a second pair of eyes that can take a look at the log data, perhaps I am overlooking something obvious?
