[SOLVED] Trouble with installing Monitorix (Centos 7)

Issue

I am trying to install Monitorix; but I can't seem to overcome certain issues with the required modules.

I have every prerequisite except for three of the perl modules (MIME-Lite, HTTP-Server-Simple, and Config-General). Even though I have installed them using CPAN, I can't seem to use rpm or yum to finish the installation process (I have the monitorix-3.9.0-1.noarch.rpm file downloaded).

Is there something I'm missing, or some way that is much easier to go about this? I started with a bare-bones Centos 7 system, in accordance to the nature of the course I have to do this for. Anything would be helpful, at this point.


Solution

Installing with CPAN is not the equivalent of installing them with yum; the installs are not in the RPM Database. Uninstall them and try again with yum, e.g. yum install perl-MIME-Lite.
