Error upgrading to PHP 7.4 installing php-pecl-ssh2

[btayl]

I am on rhel 8 and trying to upgrade to PHP7.4 and I get the following error
Error:
Problem: package php-pecl-ssh2-1.3.1-1.el8.remi.7.4.x86_64 requires libssh2(x86-64) >= 1.9.0, but none of the providers can be installed

Hello @btayl

Looks like it is referencing remi repository. Let us know what you get on these:

Code: Select all

rpm -qa | grep php-
rpm -qa | grep 'php-pecl'
yum repolist
uname -a
cat /etc/*release
yum -v list php-pecl-ssh2
php -v

Or one liner:

Code: Select all

rpm -qa | grep 'php' > /tmp/tmp.txt && rpm -qa | grep 'php-pecl' >> /tmp/tmp.txt && yum repolist >> /tmp/tmp.txt && cat /etc/*release >> /tmp/tmp.txt && yum -v list php-pecl-ssh2 >> /tmp/tmp.txt && php -v >> /tmp/tmp.txt && tar -czvf /tmp/results.tar.gz

Please send over the '/tmp/results.tar/gz' when you get a chance,
Perry

Is there any instructions on how to install on rhel 8 from scratch. like if i can use the builtin php 7.4 or do I need to just use the remi repo and any pre-request that need to be installed first ? anything would be helpful?

Hello @btayl

Thanks for following up, spun-up a Centos 8 and I see that it install using the following:

Installed Packages
php-pecl-ssh2.x86_64 1.2-2.el8 @nagiosxi-deps

Attached is the results on this so you can compare:

Code: Select all

rpm -qa | grep 'php' > /tmp/tmp.txt && rpm -qa | grep 'php-pecl' >> /tmp/tmp.txt && yum repolist >> /tmp/tmp.txt && cat /etc/*release >> /tmp/tmp.txt && yum -v list php-pecl-ssh2 >> /tmp/tmp.txt && php -v >> /tmp/tmp.txt

Please review and let us know if you have further questions,

I looked for php-pecl-ssh2.x86_64 1.2-2.el8 @nagiosxi-deps using
sudo dnf repository-packages nagiosxi-deps list

I did find if down loaded libssh2-1.9.0-5.el8.x86_64.rpm from epel and using remi php 7.4 I could install.
is this ok ?
