Developer portal installation php-mbstring problem

[sebastian_kraje]

Hello all,

I found problem in Developer Portal Installer (4.15.04.01)

ftp.apigee.com/apigee_enterprise_OPDK/Developer_Services/DeveloperServices-4.15.04.01.tar

Problem probably is only on Red Hat only, my is Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.3

sub-script lib/install-required-pkgs.sh wants to install php-mbstring

if [[ $separate_mbstring_install -eq 1 ]]; then
  mbstring_rpm_file=$( curl ftp://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/centos/6.6/updates/x86_64/Packages/ 2>/dev/null | grep " php-mbstring" | head -n1 | sed -E 's/ +/ /g' | cut -d " " -f9 )
  rpm -Uv ftp://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/centos/6.6/updates/x86_64/Packages/${mbstring_rpm_file} >> $logfile 2>&1
fi

site returns php-mbstring-5.3.3-40.el6_6.x86_64.rpm and I met with version conflict on my system because php-mbstring-5.3.3-26.el6_6.x86_64.rpm is required (Unfortunately can't paste log file).

I solved it by find good version, install it manually, and comment that if-condition in a code and re-launch networked-install.sh again.

rpm -Uv ftp://mirror.switch.ch/pool/4/mirror/scientificlinux/6.3/x86_64/updates/security/php-mbstring-5.3.3-26.el6.x86_64.rpm

Update installer script please.

Dear @Sebastian Krajewski ,

Apigee Developer Portal officially doesn't support RHEL 6.3 . Please find supported versions below. You can find more details here.

Apigee Developer Portal (Drupal)

• Red Hat Enterprise Linux (64-bit version) Licensed copy of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). Red Hat requires a license to download and install all required RPMs.
  • 6.4
  • 6.5
  • 6.6
• CentOS (64-bit version)
  • 6.4
  • 6.5
  • 6.6

Thank you for figuring a way to solve the same for RHEL 6.3 and I am sure it will be helpful for others who are looking for RHEL 6.3 , Developer portal installation.

Cheers,

Anil Sagar

I have Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.5 (Santiago) not 6.3 (host was updated 2 weeks ago)

[sebastian_kraje]

Problem confirmed.

I checked it deeply on new, empty host with Red Hat 6.5 without apache, php, mysql etc.

Script lib/install-required-pkgs.sh has 2 erros:

#1 Command below returns nothing

mbstring_rpm_file=$( curl ftp://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/centos/6.6/updates/x86_64/Packages/ 2>/dev/null | grep " php-mbstring" | head -n1 | sed -E 's/ +/ /g' | cut -d " " -f9 ) 

#2 So I did it manually by and faced with version conflict (described above):

$ rpm -Uv ftp://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/centos/6.6/updates/x86_64/Packages/php-mbstring-5.3.3-40.el6_6.x86_64.rpm

php-xml.x86_64 5.3.3-26.el6 @RHEL6-Server-x86_64

To have sure I removed php by command

yum remove php*

and run installer again.

Problem fixed by install mbstring lib manually (described above)

Apigee team fix script please, Thanks!
