Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: plesk

[infineo]

Hi,

I have just upgraded the plesk to 9.0.1 version on our server (Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant Update 6)) and need to upgrade php 4 to php 5 and also upgrade mysql server version 4 to version 5.


According to the wiki I ran:
wget -q -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic.sh | sh

Got the following:
Atomic Archive installer, version 1.0.14
Configuring the [atomic] yum archive for this system

Installing the Atomic GPG key: OK
Downloading atomic-release-1.0-10.el4.art.noarch.rpm: OK

Would you like to add the Plesk yum repository to the system?

Enable Plesk repository? (y/n) [Default: n]: y

Plesk 8.6 and 9.0 repositories are available:
NOTE: Plesk 9 repos are only available for rhel/centos 4 and 5

Enable Plesk 8.6 or 9.0? (8/9) [Default: 8]: 9

The Atomic Rocket Turtle archive has now been installed and configured for your system
The following channels are available:
atomic - [ACTIVATED] - contains the stable tree of ART packages
atomic-testing - [DISABLED] - contains the testing tree of ART packages
atomic-bleeding - [DISABLED] - contains the development tree of ART packages


but when I ran "yum update" I get error:
yum update
Setting up Update Process
Setting up repositories
Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: plesk
Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: plesk

What am I doing wrong? Please help. Thanks!

Sounds similar to a glitch which caught me out when I first set-up Atomic repo. Check the baseurl in /etc/yum.repos.d/plesk.repo, replace $releasever with 4. Should look like (NB: yours will have a different Plesk version):

Code: Select all

Thanks! Its connecting to the repository. But using the yum update command is not updating the PHP 4 to PHP 5.
What else do I need to do to upgrade to PHP5?

I was trying to following this link to upgrade: http://www.atomicorp.com/wiki/index.php/PHP

that tells me you've only got one repository configured, the plesk one. Try running "up2date -u" and see what you get

[infineo]

yes, atomic.repo file was missing and I got the yum update to run but now getting the following errors:

--> Processing Dependency: libgnutls.so.11(GNUTLS_REL_1_0_9) for package: wireshark
--> Processing Dependency: libgnutls.so.11 for package: wireshark
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: libgnutls.so.11 is needed by package wireshark
Error: Missing Dependency: libgnutls.so.11(GNUTLS_REL_1_0_9) is needed by package wireshark

I guess I can exclude the gnults but will that break anything? Will wireshark stop working?

[scott]

Yup, its linked against an older gnutls all right. We put out an update for that to integrate with OpenVAS, so short term you'd need to remove wireshark.

Check the baseurl in /etc/yum.repos.d/plesk.repo, replace $releasever with 4.

Thanks for the tip, Kalimari.
This fixed one of my issues.
