Re: [EP-tech] Migrating to Redhat Linux 8.6

Discussing this with a colleague, who has a suspicion the devel packages may be needed too, and recommended a cover-all-bases approach of:

dnf install libxslt-devel libxslt libxml2-devel libxml2

Yours,
Andrew.

Hi Maher,

I don’t have a RHEL8 box nearby right now, but I’d check that the libxml2 and libxslt packages are installed on the server.

> dnf install libxml2 libxslt

 

These are requirements for the perl modules you are trying to add.

 

Cheers,

John

Hi

 

We are in the progress of migrating our EPrints 3.4.1 system from Rehat Linux 7.6 server to a Redhat Linux 8.6 server.  We have successfully installed all of the required packages but are having issues installing the XML::LibXSLT package.  As recommended in the documentation this package should be installed using CPAN.  However using CPAN we are receiving the following error:

 

Searching XML::LibXSLT () on cpanmetadb ...

--> Working on XML::LibXSLT

Fetching http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/S/SH/SHLOMIF/XML-LibXSLT-2.002001.tar.gz

Try setting LIBS and INC values on the command line

Or get libxslt and libxml2 from

  http://www.libxml.org/

If you install via RPMs, make sure you also install the -devel

RPMs, as this is where the headers (.h files) are.

-> N/A

-> FAIL Configure failed for XML-LibXSLT-2.002001. See /root/.cpanm/work/1695296840.123696/build.log for details.

 

 

Any idea how to fix this issue?

 

Thanks,

Maher
