Symptoms
If you encounter an error the error below while trying to install certain EasyApache Packages, it likely means that your "openldap" package needs to be downgraded so that the openldap-develpackage can install.
Error: Package: openldap-devel-2.4.44-22.el7.x86_64 (cloudlinux-x86_64-server-7)
Requires: openldap(x86-64) = 2.4.44-22.el7
Installed: openldap-2.4.44-23.el7_9.x86_64 (@updates)
openldap(x86-64) = 2.4.44-23.el7_9
Available: openldap-2.4.39-3.el7.x86_64 (cloudlinux-x86_64-server-7)
openldap(x86-64) = 2.4.39-3.el7
Available: openldap-2.4.39-6.el7.x86_64 (cloudlinux-x86_64-server-7)
openldap(x86-64) = 2.4.39-6.el7
Description
This error is being encountered because CloudLinux automatically updated the openldap package but did not install the corresponding openldap-devel in addition to this package. Most EasyApache packages do not require the package openldap-devel, so that it may be normal for this version change.
Workaround
First, downgrade the current openldap package using the command below:
yum -y downgrade openldap
Then, install the package for openldap-devel:
yum -y install openldap-devel.x86_64
