Packages I needed to get dashboard running on a RHEL4 Server: >From the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux repository: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL
32-bit: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/4/i386/repoview/ 64-bit: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/4/x86_64/repoview/ augeas-0.7.2-1 augeas-libs-0.7.2-1 facter-1.5.7 ruby-augeas-0.3.0.1 ruby-mysql-2.7.3-1 The version of ruby provided with RHEL 4 is too old, a newer version is available from the CentOS Testing repository, I couldn’t find a RedHat equivalent: http://dev.centos.org/centos/4/ ruby-1.8.5-5 ruby-docs-1.8.5.-5 ruby-irb-1.8.5-5 ruby-libs-1.8.5-5 ruby-rdoc-1.8.5-5 I installed the above rpm's before the following: <quoted from http://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet-dashboard/blob/master/README.markdown> Install the gem package manager -- do not install RubyGems version 1.3.6 or newer because they are incompatible with the Ruby shipped with CentOS 5.5: URL="http://production.cf.rubygems.org/rubygems/rubygems-1.3.5.tgz"; PACKAGE=$(echo $URL | sed "s/\.[^\.]*$//; s/^.*\///") pushd "/tmp" CACHE=`mktemp -d install_rubygems.XXXXXXXXXX` pushd "$CACHE" wget -c -t10 -T20 -q "$URL" tar xfz "$PACKAGE.tgz" cd "$PACKAGE" sudo ruby setup.rb popd popd Install the rubygem rake: gem install rake I tried to install the mysql gem the same way, but got errors because ruby needed to be a higher revision. http://rubyworks.rubyforge.org/redhat/4.9/RPMS/x86_64/ rubygem-mysql-2.7-2 Finally install puppet-dashboard from rpm: http://yum.puppetlabs.com/base/ puppet-dashboard-1.0.3-3.norarch.rpm --nodeps required. The package appears to use an rpm query to check dependencies, the rake gem wasn’t installed as an RPM, neither was rubygems so it fails. rpm –Uvh --nodeps puppet-dashboard-1.0.3-3.norarch.rpm -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
