Hi, When trying to follow the instructions on http://ceph.com/docs/master/install/rpm/ for installing Ceph on RHEL6 or CentOS 6, I ran into some problems. After running # rpm --import \ 'https://ceph.com/git/?p=ceph.git;a=blob_plain;f=keys/release.asc' and # rpm -Uvh \ http://ceph.com/rpm-cuttlefish/el6/x86_64/ceph-release-1-0.el6.noarch.rpm I ran "yum install ceph-devel", which lead to the following errors when installing: Error: Package: librbd1-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: libleveldb.so.1()(64bit) Error: Package: librbd1-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: libsnappy.so.1()(64bit) Error: Package: libcephfs_jni1-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: libsnappy.so.1()(64bit) Error: Package: ceph-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: libtcmalloc.so.4()(64bit) Error: Package: ceph-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: libsnappy.so.1()(64bit) Error: Package: libcephfs1-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: libleveldb.so.1()(64bit) Error: Package: ceph-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: libleveldb.so.1()(64bit) Error: Package: libcephfs1-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: libsnappy.so.1()(64bit) Error: Package: ceph-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: python-argparse Error: Package: ceph-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: python-lockfile Error: Package: librados2-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: libsnappy.so.1()(64bit) Error: Package: libcephfs_jni1-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: libleveldb.so.1()(64bit) Error: Package: ceph-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: gdisk Error: Package: librados2-0.61.2-0.el6.x86_64 (ceph) Requires: libleveldb.so.1()(64bit) You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest It appears that these Ceph RPMs depend on some packages that are not available on a default CentOS 6 installation. (And probably not on RHEL 6 either, seeing as how the two hardly differ.) The CentOS installation in question is a brand new CentOS 6.4 minimal install with no modifications, installed just now. The only thing I did after installing was to run yum update. _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
