    installation rhel6

    I've installed the package zabbix-release-3.2-1.el6.noarch configuring the installation repos, if I then do:
    yum install zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-web-mysql
    As per the documentation I get a dependency error:
    Package zabbix is obsoleted by zabbix-java-gateway, but obsoleting package does not provide for requirements.

    Can someone please let me know how to solve this, I am trying to evaluate zabbix as a replacement for our current monitoring system.

    Thanks

      In Zabbix 3.0 or later versions, RHEL 6 is not recommended for building Zabbix server.
      RHEL 6 can be used as a proxy or Java gateway role.

      I think the reasons are as follows.
      - The version of the library used by RHEL 6 is old
      - The version of PHP provided by RHEL 6 is old

      The package for RHEL 6 of the Zabbix server is released, but the SMTP authentication function can not be used.
      In Zabbix 3.0 or later versions, PHP must be version 5.4 or later in order to run the Web frontend.

      To install Zabbix server, execute the following command.

      Code:
      # yum install http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/3.2/rhel/6/x86_64/zabbix-release-3.2-1.el6.noarch.rpm
      # yum --enablerepo=zabbix-deprecated install zabbix-server-mysql
      # yum --enablerepo=zabbix-deprecated install zabbix-web-mysql
      The PHP environment needs to be built by yourself.
      PHP 5.3.3 of the RHEL 6 standard package can not run the Web frontend.

      Please prepare an environment to run PHP 5.4 or later version using SCL etc.

      And, When using Apache HTTP Server, please place one of the following files according to the version.

      for Apache HTTP Server version 2.2.x:
      /usr/share/doc/zabbix-web-3.2.3/httpd22-example.conf
      for Apache HTTP Server version 2.4.x
      /usr/share/doc/zabbix-web-3.2.3/httpd24-example.conf
