Problem with freetds during yum update

[jon.bilderback]

Could someone help me get this package updated?

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

This isn't a problem per-se, you can run

Code: Select all

yum update --skip-broken

and all should be good

It is a problem per-se, or else I wouldn't have to skip-broken.

What I meant by that is that dependency will not prevent Nagios XI from running in any fashion..
Especially since the missing dependency is already marked installed.

Were you able to get this upgraded? I tried using the --no-broken option but still received this error:

Also if I do a search on the server for libtds.so.5 I can't find it. Can only find:

/usr/lib/libtdsodbc.so.0
/usr/lib/libtdsS.a
/usr/lib/libtdsS.so
/usr/lib/libtdsS.so.1.0.0
/usr/lib/libtdsodbc.so
/usr/lib/libtdsodbc.so.0.0.0
/usr/lib/libtdsS.so.1

Please advise. Thanks!

What version of Nagios XI are you running?

[drakeu]

What version of Nagios XI are you running?

2011R1.9

2011R1.9

I just saw in the 2011R2.0 release notes "Removed freetds and dbd dependencies", i'm guessing that may be the fix. I'll try upgrading and see what happens.

Go straight to 2011R2.1

2011R2.0 had some upgrade issues...

I finished the upgrade to 2011R2.1 but the same problem occurs when trying to use yum to install perl-DBD-Sybase.
