Hi, after reading documentation on fedora.redhat.org, yum and apt sites I can't see any other way out than asking you for help. the problem: I got installed a server with fedora, I have ssh root access to it. The installation was done without mysql and without php-mysql. I'm trying to install it now from command line. I understand that the right tool for it is yum and not up2date. However when I try to install i get: # yum install php-mysql Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) Server: Fedora Core 1 - i386 - Base Server: Fedora Project testing RPMS for RHL 9 Server: Fedora Project update RPMS for RHL 9 Server: Fedora Linux (stable) for Fedora Core 1 -- Fedora US mirror Server: Fedora Core 1 - i386 - Released Updates Finding updated packages Downloading needed headers Resolving dependencies ..package MySQL-devel needs MySQL-client (not provided) package MySQL-bench needs MySQL-client (not provided) in my yum.conf I have: [base] name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Base baseurl=http://fedora.redhat.com/releases/fedora-core-$releasever [updates-released] name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Released Updates baseurl=http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/released/fedora-core-$releasever #[updates-testing] #name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Unreleased Updates #baseurl=http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/testing/fedora-core-$releasever [fedora-updates-9] name=Fedora Project update RPMS for RHL 9 baseurl=http://download.fedora.us/fedora/redhat/9/i386/yum/updates/ [fedora-stable-9] name=Fedora Project Stable RPMS for RHL 9 baseurl=http://download.fedora.us/fedora/redhat/9/i386/yum/stable/ [fedora-stable-9] name=Fedora Project testing RPMS for RHL 9 baseurl=http://download.fedora.us/fedora/redhat/9/i386/yum/testing/ [fedora-us-1-stable] name=Fedora Linux (stable) for Fedora Core 1 -- Fedora US mirror baseurl=http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/fedora/fedora/fedora/1/i386/yum/sta ble/ Now, I can't believe that php-mysql-client is not available in the official repositories fedora.redhat.org etc. Besides, I read on this list and, if I recall, on tht fedora site, that the current version for php on fedora is 4.3.4, what I see is only 4.3.3 and no update is offered. I also have installed Fedora on a machine at home some time ago and it also has php 4.3.3 and doesn't get updated (it has php-mysql though). So the questions are: 1) Is there something wong with me (meaning, that although I'v used hours to read docs I didn't get the clue), or with the repositories? 2) How can I install pjp-mysql? Thanks for any help Paolo
