Unable to install nginx via nginx.org repo with centos7

Server NGINX
#1

Hi guys,

I’m running a fresh installed CentOS7 and added your repo via
http://nginx.org/packages/centos/7/noarch/RPMS/nginx-release-centos-7-0.el7.ngx.noarch.rpm

I get the following issue if I try to install the nginx package:

[[email protected]]# yum install nginx
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile

  • base: mirror.netcologne.de
  • epel: mirror.imt-systems.com
  • extras: mirror.skylink-datacenter.de
  • updates: mirror.23media.de
    51 packages excluded due to repository priority protections

    –> Finished Dependency Resolution
    Error: Package: nginx-1.6.1-1.el6.ngx.x86_64 (nginx-release)

    You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
    You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
    [[email protected]]#

the 51 protected packages are because of the also added puppetlabs repo
which got a high priority than the base one. Any Ideas about the libpcre
issue? I wasn’t able to find the suitable rpm via the default CentOS
repos. Do you have to add it to your mirror?

kind regards,

Tim

Looks like the repository for CentOS 6 is enabled instead of CentOS 7.

You should check the contents of /etc/yum.repos.d/ files.

The nginx.repo for CentOS7 should be like that:

nginx.repo

[nginx]
name=nginx repo
baseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/centos/7/$basearch/
gpgcheck=0
enabled=1
