This link says that these packets are enough to install cacti.
But When I install to cactid i have more packages.
I use the instructions that written in the HOW TO, then I install cactid... Don't work...

I Install my Fedora Core 3 like in the "How to" document.
Now I download these packages:
MYSQL..................4.1.10a (source)
MYSQL..................4.1.10a (rpm)
MYSQL-DEVEL........4.1.10a (rpm)
PHP......................4.3.10 (source)
APACHE................2.0.53 (source)
RRDTOOL..............1.0.49
NET-SNMP.............5.2.1 (binary rpm)
NET-SNMP-DEVEL...5.2.1 (binary rpm)
CACTI...................0.8.6.c (tar.gz)
CACTID.................0.8.6c (tar.gz)

Then I start to install. First mySQL rpm. I get a message like these:

The following packages could not be found on your system. Installation cannot continue until they are installed
libcrypto.so.5
libssl.so.5

How can I find these files?
So, I have been tried to install mySQL source file. I can configure like in the document. But at the end of the day i wanna install cactid. Cacitd document says that i need mysql-devel package. I downloaded rpm packages. Because I cany find source. I tried to install mysql-devel then i read a message that says mysql cannot be foundon my system,like read above.
What is the problem I dont understand..İnstalling cactid is impossible in FC3?

The error message indicates you don't have OpenSSL libraries installed. Get and install the following RPMs:
openssl
openssl-devel

Another thing is that RPM file called mysql contains only client application. MySQL server is included in another RPM - mysql-server

I try to install SSL rpms.
but:

[root@cacti-test cacti-install]# rpm -i openssl-devel-0.9.7e-3.i386.rpm

Try using with the yum program, it "should" resolve the dependencies for you.

#yum install openssl
#yum install openssl-devel

etc....

to install what bulek said, (mysql server) # yum install mysql-server

I use yum. But yum still shows a message about dependency...
What a complex process to install cacti..

Before installing a rpm (source file in tar.gz format in my case), i remove all rpm.

For example :
rpm -qa | grep -i mysql
rpm -e mysqlxxx --nodeps

In the procedure installation, i remove with this methode the web server apache.

Installing Cacti is possible ...

I download the Fedora Core 3 in this site : http://www.01net.com/telecharger/linux/Distributions/

OK.
I remove all mysql. (firts found Mysql-client-4.0.24-0 and Mysql-shared-4.0.24-0) Then I remove wih rpm -e.
Now do I install mysql-4.1.10a.tar.gz like describing in document?

wookii · Post by **wookii** » Thu Mar 17, 2005 8:17 am

Yes !!!

When you have no package listed with the rpm command
"rpm -qa | grep -i mysql" you can install new rpm !!!

And include for desinstalling the --nodeps command ("rpm -e x --nodeps" where x is your rpm installed)

Do to for :
rrdtool (normally not installed)
httpd
etc ...

OK...
I done for mysql, httpd and rrdtool.
httpd-suexec-2.0.52.3 and system-config-httpd-1.3.1-1 are removed..
Then mysql is installed like
./configure --prefix=usr/local/mysl
make
make install
and other mysql install script..
now there is no problem..
But i wait to install cactid..
Then I write later

I install many rpm in a same time (mysql in a first windows, net-snmp in second windows ...) for reducing the time of installation. Be carefull that a configuration of php for example, don't call a mysql directory.

There are no problem for many installation with rrdtool, net-snmp, mysql and apache (i believe !!!).

TFC · Post by **TFC** » Fri Mar 18, 2005 1:00 am
