Stuck in Iowa

Here’s a solution for people having an issue with Plesk. On one of my servers I was updating Plesk 7.5.3 to 7.5.4 however I could never update successfully. Here’s the error message I was getting:

Installing php-pgsql-4.3.2-23.ent.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
php = 4.3.2-23.ent is needed by php-pgsql-4.3.2-23.ent
Suggested resolutions:
/php-4.3.2-23.ent.i386.rpm

Here’s my solution…
#cd /root/psa/
#rpm -Uvh –nodeps php-pgsql-4.3.2-23.ent.i386.rpm

Here’s a screen copy of what I did step by step:

[root@myserver rpm]# cd /root/psa/
[root@myserver psa]# ls
PSA_7.5.3 PSA_7.5.4 psa.inf
[root@myserver psa]# cd PSA_7.5.4
[root@myserver PSA_7.5.4]# ls
RHel3_std.updates rpm_RedHat_el3
[root@myserver PSA_7.5.4]# cd RHel3_std.updates/
[root@myserver RHel3_std.updates]# ls
php-pgsql-4.3.2-23.ent.i386.rpm plesk-libstdc++-3_4-3.4.3-2.i586.rpm
plesk-libgcc-3_4-3.4.3-2.i586.rpm
[root@myserver RHel3_std.updates]# rpm -Uvh –nodeps php-pgsql-4.3.2-23.ent.i386.rpm

Then I went into the Plesk Control Panel, did the ‘updater’ and it worked when I updated my packages.
