tomcat-native error on cpbm 1.34 install on centos 6.2

Hi,

I tried to install CPBM 1.3.4 on Centos 6.2 ...
got the tomcat-native error.

error: Failed dependencies:
tomcat-native is needed by cloud-portal-1.3.4-1.x86_64

When I do a rpm-qa|grep tomcat , I see the following
on the lab (6.2) system

rpm -qa|grep tomcat
tomcat6-el-1.0-api-6.0.33-2.jpp6.noarch
tomcat6-6.0.33-2.jpp6.noarch
tomcat6-servlet-2.5-api-6.0.33-2.jpp6.noarch
apache-commons-dbcp-tomcat5-1.3.0-0.r830852.4.jpp6.noarch
apache-commons-pool-tomcat5-1.5.3-6.jpp6.noarch

tomcat6-lib-6.0.33-2.jpp6.noarch
tomcat6-jsp-2.1-api-6.0.33-2.jpp6.noarch

I tried this command,
yum install tomcat6 tomcat-native ..and got this

yum install tomcat6 tomcat-native

tomcat-native error on cpbm 1.34 install on centos 6.2

The tomcat-native package comes from the EPEL repository. The installer will attempt to download the EPEL repo config from http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/x86_64/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm. If the download or install of this RPM fails, then you will receive the failed dependencies error. Can you provide the full output from running install.sh?

You can also manually install the above RPM using
rpm -ihv http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/x86_64/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm

Then rerun the install.sh.

Thanks David. i tried the second alternative..i.e manually ran the piece...
Solved the problem for now.
Anyone else seen the problem on 6.2 , or maybe just my build?
Thanks

Just to confirm did you get this working by installing epel 5.4 on CentOS 6.2?

I was told to install epel 6.x on CentOS 6.2 to get this working....

Can you confirm which one is required?

Cheers,
Ralf

It's recommended to use EPEL 6.x with RHEL/CentOS/SL 6 and EPEL 5.x with RHEL/CentOS/SL 5. However, the tomcat-native library is the same version in both repositories, only the names of the RPMs are different:

tomcat-native-1.1.22-1.el6.x86_64 (from EPEL 6)
tomcat-native-1.1.22-1.el5.x86_64 (from EPEL 5)

So technically, you can use EPEL 6.x or 5.x on CentOS 6. But if you install EPEL 5.x on CentOS 6, you may run into other problems in the future if you decide to install additional packages.
