Hello,

I wanted simply to know if I can use ART's repository if I have a CentOs (32 bit) 5 machine with Plesk 8.4. I need the repository mostly to update php and mysql, as I did in the past.

Thanks!

Yes you can! we have several machines with CentOS / Plesk 8.4 and ART repo running fine...

Does ART support CentOS 5.1 64bit?

Also has Plesk 8.4 been added to the channel yet. I'm planning on doing a new server install over the weekend, and was hoping to put the latest and greatest on it.

Ive got a 8.4 repo on the 3es box here: http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/channels/plesk/8.4.0/, I reckon 8.4 is quiet enough now to retire the 8.3 archive.

Cool, whats the command line to install 8.4 on the box from your yum?

Matt

Hi Scott, Just wanted to check something.

I did a min install of CentOS 5.1 on my server (32bit) and used the hard partioning you sugested in another thread. Then shut the firewall off, and put SELinux in passive mode.

After a restart I added the ART channel to yum using the following:-

# wget -q -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic |sh

and hit Y for the Plesk repo. Then I did:-

# yum install psa

This (from what I read) installed 8.3 on the server and not 8.4 which I had hoped. I will do an update instead to get 8.4 latest.

Once that had finished I ran yum update downloaded about 194 updates (hopefully only updates and not apps I didn't want).

I then restarted......

Ok what did I do wrong, I haven't fired up Plesk yet but I have a feeling something isn't right.

Matt

I hadn't activated the 8.4 repo yet, I do have a copy here if you want to add it to your config:

http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/channels/plesk/

Oh righty. How do I do that? Sorry I'm a bit of a newbie at linux, and not all clued up yet.

Also, if I ad that to the config and run the update, will it replace the Plesk 8.3 that it installed?

Oh and yum has updated CentOS to 5.2, is this going to cause me issues?

Thanks,

Matt

change the baseurl line in /etc/yum.repos.d/plesk.repo to point to the 3es server. Yes, and No.

Hi Scot,

I used vi to add this line under PUT YOUR REPOS HERE in the /etc/yum.conf file.

http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/channels/plesk/8.4.0/

I then saved it, and tried and ran yum update but it didn't update, and it didn't seem to check that url.

Matt

you have to modify the baseurl in plesk.repo

I changed the plesk.repo as you said to this:-
But I get the following error when I run yum update:-

http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/chann ... repomd.xml : [Err no 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: plesk. Please verify its path and try again

Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Matt

You have to specify the rest of the data, distro, release version, and architecture.

had to add /centos/$releasever/$basearch to get it to work.

Only issue I have now is that it can't determin the version I have to upgrade, so it has failed it.

I'm going to re-install the box now, as I had some issues with network connectivity during its installation.

Has the repo's been updated to include Plesk 8.4.0 now, or do I have to go through the same steps to get it on the server?

Matt

Right, just got the box installed again and online.

This time, instead of using this line to install ART yum channel:-

# wget -q -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic |sh

I used this one:-

# wget http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/installers/atomic.sh
# sh ./atomic.sh

Granted it didn't ask me if I wanted to install Plesk repo, is that right though?
