unable to install

[tasone]

Hello,

I am having issues install efa, i have downloaded the iso to centos 7 (latest) version

I did the minimum install; setup a fixed ip address and rebooted.

Did the command "curl -sSL https://install.efa-project.org | bash" goes through with the install but errors out

"installing eFa packages (this can take a while)
ERROR: eFa4 failed to install
********* Script aborted *****

i have redone the CentOS install and i get the same error over and over i even tried the other way of installing

wget -O build.bash https://install.efa-project.org
sudo bash build.bash

and i get the same error.

I dont know Linus at all (windows man); and i dont have a clue to what to do to get this to work again

Any ideas?

Thanks

Andrew

Hi Tasone,

There's an dependency error, that affects updates and I think applies to new installs too..

Code: Select all

Error: Package: 1:eFa-4.0.4-39.eFa.el7.noarch (eFa4)
           Requires: php74-gmp >= 7.4.28-1

Take a look here. Guess ADDING the additional ius Archive repo , as mentioned there, could solve things.

Hello

Thanks,

I went through that post and it is the same error i get.

The only thing from that post is when you do the yum list installed |grep php74 command it says it shows

mod_php74.x86_64 7.4.33-1.el7.ius @sans-ius
php74-cli.x86_64 7.4.33-1.el7.ius @sans-ius

php74-process.x86_64 7.4.33-1.el7.ius @sans-ius
php74-xml.x86_64 7.4.33-1.el7.ius @sans-ius


i only get

php74-common.x86_64 7.4.33-1.el7.ius @sans-ius
php74-gmp.x86_64 7.4.33-1.el7.ius @sans-ius

and when i try and install eFa i get the same error

Thanks

You just prooved my point, ADDING the additional ius Archive repo is required for new installs too.

Before you exec the build script, the repo should be present, as all required php moved there:

https://repo.ius.io/archive/7/x86_64/packages/p/

It would be great if the eFa moderators would step in to solve this one as adding repos requires manual intervention of the install process.

[tasone]

I think i added that repo (from the post you linked to; i left it in to check)

But i am getting the same error.

I got to learn Linus as i only know the basic commands and the VI editor and that is about it

Can i check that following that post to add that archive repo and just leaving it there is what you asked me to do?

Thanks

Andrew

[henk]

to check the current repos'

Code: Select all

yum repolist

If the Archive repo didnt show up

Code: Select all

vi /etc/yum.repos.d/ius-archive.repo

Paste this into the file

Code: Select all

[ius-archive]
name=IUS Community Archive Packages for Enterprise Linux 7
baseurl=https://repo.ius.io/archive/7/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

Code: Select all

yum repolist

result should contain these lines
ius IUS Community Packages for Enterprise Linux 7
ius-archive/x86_64 IUS Community Archive Packages for Enterprise Linux 7 11,084

If present, run the install again

Hint,
have a look at mc.

Code: Select all

yum install mc

start mc and and disable the Use internal edit (under the Options)

In case of errors during install/update, check the logiles

can be found here

Code: Select all

/var/log/eFa

Hi

That worked

That should be added to the install page for eFa

Thank you so much for your time and help with this issue.
