I was trying to install the Mongo Server on my RedHat server via following this document: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-red-hat-centos-or-fedora-linux/

Here is my environment information:

[root@localhost tmp]# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.18-164.el5PAE #1 SMP Tue Aug 18 15:59:11 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[root@localhost yum.repos.d]# ll /etc/yum.repos.d/

[root@localhost yum.repos.d]# cat 10gen.repo
[10gen]
name=10gen Repository
baseurl=http://downloads-distro.mongodb.org/repo/redhat/os/i686
gpgcheck=0
enabled=1

And I get this message when I was trying to install Mongo server:

[root@localhost yum.repos.d]# yum install mongo-10gen-server mongo-10gen

Setting up Install Process

Nothing to do

I'm new to Linux, and I'm not quite sure if this was caused by wrong configuration of yum. Can someone help me out of here?

It's seems you've some conflicts in your config files. Try dowloading the rpm package and installing via rpm -hiv xxx.rpm

  • Do you have some shell on this? I'm really new on Linux. – 53iScott Apr 03 '13 at 10:50
  • Scott, you should download the rpm file for you arch then running something like UNIX_PROMPT>sudo rpm -hiv The system will ask you the root password but you should have it since you can run "yum", right? :) – Salvatore Dario Minonne Apr 03 '13 at 15:52
  • Hi Dario, yes, you got it! I was trying to install the MongoDB via the document: [link](http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-red-hat-centos-or-fedora-linux/), but there's no guide for using rpm command in this webpage. And I now figured out 2 ways to solve it - 1. download the rpm packages and install them via rpm command, but I can't find the packages to download; 2. handle the conflicts in config files, this might be easier and a better solution because I just need to fully re-install Yum (I guess). Can you help me out? – 53iScott Apr 08 '13 at 09:50
  • Actually, I've found the link to download MongoDB, and I have successfully installed it :) However, can you help me to resolve the problem of the conflicts? – 53iScott Apr 08 '13 at 10:10
  • Scott, I'm sorry I've never ran yum in my life. – Salvatore Dario Minonne Apr 09 '13 at 15:57

I skipped over the Yum problem and I tried to download the package from this website http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-red-hat-centos-or-fedora-linux/ . It's working.
