This helped me just now. I note some package versions have changed, but I can't imagine it's going to do so often. This works at this time:
rpm -import http://mirror.centos.org/ce... for I in libxml2-2.6.16-12.6.i386.rpm libxml2-python-2.6.16-12.6.i386.rpm python-elementtree-1.2.6-5.el4.centos.i386.rpm sqlite-3.3.6-2.i386.rpm python-sqlite-1.1.7-1.2.1.i386.rpm rpm-python-4.3.3-32_nonptl.i386.rpm python-urlgrabber-2.9.8-2.noarch.rpm yum-metadata-parser-1.0-8.el4.centos.i386.rpm yum-2.4.3-4.el4.centos.noarch.rpm; do rpm -Uvh http://mirror.centos.org/ce...{I}; done

Just Great... What to say other than that... When I was learning to install Yum I was bit confused of doing things, since I am a windows admin.. I have installed more dependency rpms.. I can see bit lesser here.

Thanks all the way:)

yumconf can be found here

http://rpm.pbone.net/index....

and provides:

[root@home root]# rpm -ql centos-yumconf-4-4.5
/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo

Thanks a bunch! I appreciate this. Was looking all over, as I am trying to install dkim, and needed the patch command... which was only available though yum!

# yum install patch

Thanks again!

Hi all, this tutorial works great. I just thought I would let everyone know that since this article was posted there have been some updates to the links for several of the commands... You may want to go to this address: http://mirror.centos.org/ce... and do a control > find to search for the exact version of the file you will need. Some of the links above are out of date.

Thanks for the tutorial,
Wes

Thanks for this tutorial - I had the same problem and working from your commands here I was able to get yum running (eventually).

Now to get JSON support in PHP5... :)

Cheers,

Beau

I have a major problem isntalling yum on spry.com's vps. I followed your instructions and here's what I got:

rpm -Uvh http://mirror.centos.org/ce...
Retrieving http://mirror.centos.org/ce...
error: Failed dependencies:
rpm = 4.3.3-22_nonptl is needed by rpm-python-4.3.3-22_nonptl.i386

rpm -Uvh http://mirror.centos.org/ce...
Retrieving http://mirror.centos.org/ce...
error: Failed dependencies:
yumconf is needed by yum-2.4.3-3.el4.centos.noarch

Any clue? I would really appreciate it.
