Re: Fedora RPMs (and RHEL3/WBEL3)

OK,

    Time for a reality check.

    I just reinstalled FC1 (takes about 2 1/2 hrs) using the workstation installation with no package mods. I previously used the custom install that I need on the final box which will be a server.

    I initially logged in as a regular user, sftp'ed the rpms from my server - where I stashed them, did su - root, went to the rpm directory and followed the procedure, below. But, I still get the same (explitive deleted) error when I try to create the repository.

    I verified the MD5 for the iso files for FC1 and I verified the install CD's that I made from them in XCDRoast.

    Something is wrong here. I wish I knew what it is. I especially don't understand how it can work in one place and not in another with all the same stuff installed.

I just did a fresh FC1 install on a machine.  I did a workstation
install and didn't modify any packages.  I then logged in as root and
did the following:

rpm --install db4-4.2.52-3.i386.rpm
rpm --upgrade apr-0.9.5-0.3.i386.rpm \
              apr-util-0.9.5-0.3.i386.rpm \
              neon-0.24.4-1.i386.rpm \
              subversion-1.0.0-2.fc1.i386.rpm
svnadmin create test

All steps succeeded.

Hi again,

    Still no luck.

    I started over with a fresh install of FC1 (without installing all 
of the updates with yum) - on a different box. Then followed this 
procedure (with the summersoft RPMs, as of 3/2):

rpm -e subversion
rpm -ivh db4-4.2.52-2.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh apr-0.9.5-0.3.i386.rpm apr-util-0.9.5-0.3.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh neon-0.24.4-1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh subversion-1.0.0-2.fc1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh subversion-server-1.0.0-2.fc1.i386.rpm 
subversion-tools-1.0.0-2.fc1.i386.rpm

    I still get the same error when running "svnadmin create test".

    There has to be another step or something. Right? Maybe something 
that needs to be installed with the initial install or something that 
needs to be upgraded. Is anyone using this on a clean new FC1 distribution?

Thanks,

Chet

i didn't upgrade db4-utils and things seem to work ok, here...

oh yeah, i forgot the Eclipse plugin thingy:

ln -s /usr/lib/libexpat.so.0.5.0 /usr/lib/libexpat.so.1

The db4-devel and db4 java probably aren't needed.  I don't know about
the java.  I don't use it.  Doesn't the db4-utils need to be upgraded to
work with the new db4.2?

no, it ain't. he removed the db4-utils, db4-devel, and db4-java 
packages, replacing them with the 4.2 versions.

Alvin's procedure is the same procedure as C. Heilman used.

you didn't have to remove the old db4 install; the two can 
coexist. in fact, removing the 4.1 version may break other stuff. 
here's what i did to get everything working:

# rpm -e subversion
# rpm -ivh db4-4.2.52-2.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh apr-0.9.5-0.3.i386.rpm apr-util-0.9.5-0.3.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh neon-0.24.4-1.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh subversion-1.0.0-2.fc1.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh subversion-server-1.0.0-2.fc1.i386.rpm 
subversion-tools-1.0.0-2.fc1.i386.rpm

hth,

Hi all,

I am still getting the same  "Berkeley DB error while creating 
environment for filesystem ...." as before.

I downloaded the RPMs from summersoft and followed this procedure 
as detailed by Craig Robson:

rpm --erase db4-devel apr-util-devel httpd-devel subversion-devel 
mod_perl-devel
rpm --erase apr-devel neon-devel mod_dav_svn
rpm --erase db4-java

Except, I had to switch the order of these 2

rpm --upgrade db4-utils-4.2.52-3.i386.rpm
rpm --install db4-4.2.52-3.i386.rpm

to

rpm --install db4-4.2.52-3.i386.rpm
rpm --upgrade db4-utils-4.2.52-3.i386.rpm

in order to satisfy the dependencies.

# Finally, upgrade the subversion packages.
rpm --upgrade apr-0.9.5-0.3.i386.rpm \
           apr-util-0.9.5-0.3.i386.rpm \
           neon-0.24.4-1.i386.rpm \
           subversion-1.0.0-2.fc1.i386.rpm

Did I miss something? Any further suggestions would be greatly 
appreciated.

Thanks,

Chet
