Upgrade fails 5.3.2 to any other version.

[derik.petty]

Dumb question. But i am attempting to upgrade and older install of NagiosXI. We had it running in a fully offline environment. But we're finally able to connect it to a proxy out. If I attempt to update through the webUI it just sits there for hours on end with no movement.

I then attempted to run the update from yum. yum update nagiosxi. Returns no packages marked for upgrade.

Then I attempted to run the latest offline update 5.6.13. it comes back saying the nagiosxi-dep-5.3.2-1 are not compatible.

So I need some help with this.

Environment is NagiosXI Appliance 2.2 (CentOS 6) Nagios version 5.3.2

If you started from one of our appliances, you would want to follow this document for upgrading

Okay. So I have tried to run these commands before. I apologize I did not give the output.

I have tried to run it both online and offline manually. Here is the output from the online attempt I just ran.

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

The only change from online to offline is in offline it complains that the 5.3.2-deps are not compatible.

Let me know where to go or try next.

This looks like someone removed or disabled the epel repository

Run the following to add it to your installation

Code: Select all

yum install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-6.noarch.rpm

Yeah I was just about to reply. The epel.repo file was busted. I am running the upgrade now and it seems to be working. I will upload results when it is finished.

Thanks

Sounds good!
