Instead of installing a new server, I tried to upgrade
the one running the
5.0.1 level. It has the following packages installed:
kamailio-perl-5.0.1-1.1.x86_64
kamailio-5.0.1-1.1.x86_64
kamailio-mysql-5.0.1-1.1.x86_64
kamailio-snmpstats-5.0.1-1.1.x86_64
So I have download the 5.0.7 packages into a separate folder:
kamailio-rpms_5.0.7
kamailio-5.0.7-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
kamailio-mysql-5.0.7-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
kamailio-perl-5.0.7-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
kamailio-snmpstats-5.0.7-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
kamailio-ims-5.0.7-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
The update command rpm -Uvh --force kamailio* detects a dependency on the
mod_perl package :
warning: kamailio-5.0.7-1.el7.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key
ID 941fdbdd: NOKEY
error: Failed dependencies:
mod_perl is needed by kamailio-perl-5.0.7-1.el7.x86_64
I try to find this mod_perl package but it does no longer exist for RedHat
7. We can find multiple articles referencing this change in RHEL.
It seems there is an alternative way to get this module in a EPEL repository
(https://huntingbears.nl/2013/12/17/no-mod_perl-in-rhel-7-and-centos-7/).
It is to me a huge work to simply update my current Kamailio to 5.0.7.
Does this mod_perl change makes sense to you ?
Have you an idea to get rid of this dependency?
Hello Patrick,
probably a stupid question, but do you actually use the perl module inside
your kamailio cfg? If not - I would suggest to just remove the 5.0.1 perl
module, and also not install it for 5.0.7.
If you need it - the quoted artice states that its actually not difficult to
install mod_perl from the EPEL repository. This looks quite ok: "EPEL is the
high-quality RPM collection for RHEL and CentOS linux, maintened by the Fedora
project.".
Best regards,
Henning
