Java, Tomcat and CL 6.5 update failure
Is there anyone out there having the same problem or it's just me ?
Updating a few servers to 6.5, all fine until I reached a server with tomcat installed.
Update broken due to dependencies. Digging the errors I found it couldn't update because of the java package that is required by tomcat rpm packages.
Even digging more and getting the rpm locally that the system thinks it doesn't exists, again I got the same error
It seems that the system searches for java7 instead of openjdk-1.7. Anyone else having same trouble when trying to update from 6.4 to 6.5 ? ---Edit--- As I was writing this Ken Folse was kind enough to dig deeper and find an internal case (84205) with this issue, quoting the temporary solution: [QUOTE]After further research, it appears this is due to our internal case # 84205. You can monitor our changelog for that case number for when a fix goes live. In the meantime, you can try the following workaround: 1. Run /scripts/easyapache once to have Tomcat fail as we add the java rpms during this steps if it isn't already installed (it wasn't on the test machines before this step). 2. Remove the java rpms that are 1 minor version higher rpm -e --nodeps java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel-1.7.0.45-2.4.3.3.el6.x86_64 rpm -e --nodeps java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.45-2.4.3.3.el6.x86_64 3. Set java* in the exclude line for /etc/yum.conf file so we don't re-force the new minor version (we do otherwise on /scripts/easyapache run) -bash-4.1# grep exclude /etc/yum.conf exclude=bind-chroot courier* dovecot* exim* filesystem httpd* java* mod_ssl* mydns* mysql* nsd* php* proftpd* pure-ftpd* ruby* spamassassin* squirrelmail* 3. Add the 1 version lower rpms from source wget rpm -Uvh java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.45-2.4.3.2.el6_4.x86_64.rpm rpm -Uvh java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel-1.7.0.45-2.4.3.2.el6_4.x86_64.rpm 4. Re-run /scripts/easyapache to see that Tomcat now does not fail to compile on either CentOS 6.4 or CentOS 6.5 machines. I did this testing on the CentOS 6.5 test server for the workaround and left the CentOS 6.4 machine in the broken state with the 1 minor version higher java rpms

It seems the problem is with : easy-mysql-connector-java-5.1.25-0.noarch it has dependencies that conflict with RHEL 6.5 (and as the result CL6.5/CentOS6.5) 0 -
We're having the same issue. I assume we have to wait until Java is updated? 0 -
Hello :) This is discussed at: [Case 84181] EasyApache update fails in case of yum error Thank you. 0
