Hi,

I am trying to install Nagios Network Analyzer on CentOS 7. And getting a specific error.

Error message: The step that failed was 'prereqs'.

Don't have any idea, what type of prerequisites is required. I have attached the log file.

Please help !!

The problem I am guessing is that php-mcrypt-5.3.3-3.el6.x86_64 (epel) is much older than the version of php you have on your system since it is Centos 7 (possibly PHP 5.6?).

Try the follow which will download the epel update for cent 7, hopefully this fixes your issue:

Code: Select all

cd /tmp/ && wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/beta/7/x86_64/epel-release-7-1.noarch.rpm

sudo yum install epel-release-7-1.noarch.rpm
sudo yum install php-mcrypt*
sudo systemctl restart httpd.service

If you are already root then you can remove the 'sudo' but these have to be run as root user.

Then I would run a yum update from the command line to check and see if there are updates to the epel rpm we just installed.
