Unable to install agent on Oracle Linux 6.5 via rpm

[dthacker]

My current installed packages on the Zabbix main server:

[root@tstmon01 ~]# yum list installed | grep zabbix
fping.x86_64                        2.4b2-16.el6              @zabbix-non-supported

zabbix-web-mysql.noarch             2.2.3-1.el6               @zabbix

Pretty web page says 2.2.3

I need to install an agent on a server. I downloaded

zabbix-agent-2.2.3-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

from the website via links in the docs. Install failed due to missing release file. (Why does the agent need a release file?)

 [root@tstoradb01 zabbix]# rpm -ivh zabbix-agent-2.2.3-1.el6.x86_64.rpm 
warning: zabbix-agent-2.2.3-1.el6.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 79ea5ed4: NOKEY
error: Failed dependencies:
	zabbix = 2.2.3-1.el6 is needed by zabbix-agent-2.2.3-1.el6.x86_64
 ]

I can't find the 2.2.3-release file anywhere on repo.zabbix.com. Where can I get it?
Do I need a different version of the release file?

Thanks in advance for your help

Release noarch package dependency is blocking install of multiple agents

I have also tried to install the 2.2.1 version of the agent. It fails on a dependency on 2.2.1-el6.noarch.rpm.

The only "zabbix-release" file I can find on repo.zabbix.com is 2.2-1.el6.noarch.rpm. I've installed this on the server where I'm attempting to install the agent rpm, but it is not satisying depdenencies for either version of the agent. Is there another location on the repo that contains the other "zabbix-release" .rpms?

Cheers!
Dave

Hi Dave,

Can't you find anything useful for you here (http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/2.2/rhel/6/x86_64/) ?

Best Regards,

Dave, try to install manually first:

zabbix.x86_64                       2.2.3-1.el6               @zabbix

[Solved] Unable to install agent on Oracle Linux 6.5 vi rpm

Sometimes we are our own worst enemy.

I did not properly install the Zabbix repository link from the documentation, once I did that,
I was able simply yum install zabbix-agent and the correct (or at least) a working version was installed.
