help with rhel requirements

[mcdougak]

Hey all,

So I was able to get everything in working order real quick on Ubuntu but I'm having some issues on RHEL 6.5

The following is what I see at servername/zabbix when i try to do the install procedure...

Current value Required
PHP version 5.3.14 5.3.0 OK
PHP option memory_limit 128M 128M OK
PHP option post_max_size 16M 16M OK
PHP option upload_max_filesize 2M 2M OK
PHP option max_execution_time 300 300 OK
PHP option max_input_time 300 300 OK
PHP time zone unknown Fail
PHP databases support off Fail
PHP bcmath off Fail
PHP mbstring off Fail
PHP sockets off Fail
PHP gd unknown 2.0 Fail
PHP gd PNG support off Fail
PHP gd JPEG support off Fail
PHP gd FreeType support off Fail
PHP libxml 2.7.7 2.6.15 OK
PHP xmlwriter on OK
PHP xmlreader on OK
PHP ctype on OK
PHP session on OK
PHP session auto start off off OK
PHP gettext off Warning

I know why the time item is wrong and had that fixed before i wiped out my config to start over, I can get that corrected by myself. However .. the rest is really starting to confuse me.

My DB is hosted on a server running mysql, all the scripts ran correctly to setup the initial database. So this is what I try and what I get ...

[]# yum install mysql
Setting up Install Process
Package mysql-5.1.71-1.el6.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
[]# yum install php-mysql
Setting up Install Process
Package php-mysql-5.3.3-27.el6_5.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
[]#

Similar for bcmath ...

[]# yum install php-bcmath
Setting up Install Process
Package php-bcmath-5.3.3-27.el6_5.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
[]#

Am I looking for the correct versions ? I have the server updated with the latest versions of everything.
This is with the 2.2 release of zabbix.

Thanks for your help !

A lot of times those type issues are resolved by installing the devel packages also.

For instance:
mysql-devel
libcurl-devel
etc

And for my PHP stuff, I installed all of these packages via RPM's:

$ sudo rpm -i php-5.3.3-14.el6_3.x86_64.rpm
$ sudo rpm -i php-mysql-5.3.3-14.el6_3.x86_64.rpm
$ sudo rpm -i php-common-5.3.3-14.el6_3.x86_64.rpm
$ sudo rpm -i php-bcmath-5.3.3-14.el6_3.x86_64.rpm
$ sudo rpm -i php-mbstring-5.3.3-14.el6_3.x86_64.rpm
$ sudo rpm -i php-xml-5.3.3-14.el6_3.x86_64.rpm
$ sudo rpm -i php-cli-5.3.3-14.el6_3.x86_64.rpm

(Edit) That was all on my Zabbix version 2.0.9 and RHEL 6.3 (Santiago)

After removing all components and reinstallling / updating I've not got the following

PHP version 5.3.14 5.3.0 OK
PHP option memory_limit 128M 128M OK
PHP option post_max_size 16M 16M OK
PHP option upload_max_filesize 2M 2M OK
PHP option max_execution_time 300 300 OK
PHP option max_input_time 300 300 OK
PHP time zone America/Los_Angeles OK
PHP databases support off Fail
PHP bcmath on OK
PHP mbstring on OK
PHP sockets off Fail
PHP gd 2.0.34 2.0 OK
PHP gd PNG support on OK

PHP libxml 2.7.7 2.6.15 OK
PHP xmlwriter on OK
PHP xmlreader on OK

PHP gettext off Warning

I installed the devel packages as suggested also.

When I went to install the php rpms listed I received this ...

The Zabbix 2.2 packages are currently in the final steps of QA for EPEL. EPEL is going to be the most supportable method of install for RHEL and related systems.

Is there any additional documentation you can point me to?

I have epel-release-6-8.noarch already installed and updated to the latest version. ( at least i believe i do, here is my repolist. also should i consider removing any of these to make sure i'm getting the correct package?)
