No package httpd available. Centos
| Posted by ckinikar, 12-28-2009, 03:36 PM |
| Hi,
Server O.S. Centos 5.4 32 bit, I want to reinstall httpd and I have removed httpd by running command "yum remove httpd" when tried to install again following config displayed.
I have tried as much I can, rebuild rpm database also, still problem not solved. I am getting same message with any other package like mysql. php etc. to install "No package packagename available." I have ssh root access only.
Kindly suggest me solution.

| Hi,
Can you paste the content of the file /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo
|

| That indicates that the repo that you are using doesn't have the version of that package. Either the testing repo or the centos-base repo should have this however.
You can also give this repo a try as well, works wonders when I run into dead ends.

| First of all, apache is part of the default CentOS repositories. So I suggest you drill down to the original problem and fix it, instead of trying other yum repositories.
Verify the httpd package is completely gone
rpm -qa | grep httpd
If you get no result thats good.
ls /etc/yum.repos.d
Can you see a CentOS-Base.repo file?
If yes, cat /etc/yum.conf
Is there an exclude= line with httpd on it?

Thanks.

| Hi,
I have verified that httpd package is completely removed. I have shown CentOS-Base.repo file contents in the last quote.
Kindly check cat /etc/yum.conf contents given bellow.
Kindly suggest the solution.
Thanks.

| Your "exclude=" line in /etc/yum.conf contains 'httpd'. Remove httpd from the exclude line and try installing http using yum once again.

| Based on your /etc/yum.conf file this looks like you are running cPanel on your system.
In which case you should compile Apache using easyapache, and shouldnt install it through Yum at all.
Run /scripts/easyapache and follow the instructions

| Right, it does look like it's cPanel. Apache should be there by default, check the Apache status and see what you receive:
/etc/init.d/httpd status
