Issue
HI everybody i am using CentOs7 and havae some troubles with the installation of the contextBroker. I followed the installation on the added the Fiware Repo in my yum repo.
Here is a list of my yum repo:
repo id repo name status
base/7/x86_64 CentOS-7 - Base 9,007
epel/x86_64 Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 7 - x86_64 10,368
extras/7/x86_64 CentOS-7 - Extras 356
fiware Fiware Repository 176
mongodb MongoDB repo 279
updates/7/x86_64 CentOS-7 - Updates 2,070
repolist: 22,256
I am always getting an error message that there are some failed dependencies
libboost_filesystem-mt.so.5()(64bit) is needed by contextBroker-0.15.0-1.x86_64
libboost_system-mt.so.5()(64bit) is needed by contextBroker-0.15.0-1.x86_64
libboost_thread-mt.so.5()(64bit) is needed by contextBroker-0.15.0-1.x86_64
Here is the output of my config file for the fiware.repo
[fiware]
name=Fiware Repository
#baseurl=http://repositories.lab.fiware.org/repo/rpm/$releasever
baseurl=http://repositories.lab.fiware.org/repo/rpm/x86_64/
gpgcheck=0
enabled=1
I found a possible solution under this link, but unfortunately this is not working. In the comment section there is an entry which says that there is a problem with CentOs7 but that doesn`t solve my problem
Btw: this is also not working Boost-Libboost is needed in Centos7 (ContexBroker)
So my question is, did someone installed the contextBroker on CentOs7 via yum and if he/she did how can i solve this problem ?
Solution
As you mention, there isn't official support for CentOS 7 at the present moment. However, you could do the following to get a running binary with contextBroker in your CentOS 7 system (actually, this a "quick and dirty" receipt based on the build from sources procedure documented in the Orion manual):
sudo yum install git wget
wget https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
sudo rpm -i epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
sudo yum install make cmake gcc-c++ scons
sudo yum install boost-devel libcurl-devel gnutls-devel libgcrypt-devel libuuid-devel
# Install mongoDB driver as described in the documentation
# Install rapidjson as described in the documentation
# Install libmicrohttpd as described in the documentation
mkdir ~/src
cd ~/src
git clone https://github.com/telefonicaid/fiware-orion.git
cd fiware-orion
# optionally, you can set an specific version with a checkout command
# e.g. 'git checkout 1.2.1'. Otherwise, you will build the latest
# code from develop branch
make
BUILD_RELEASE/src/app/contextBroker/contextBroker --version
Moreover, you can use the following to generate a RPM file:
sudo yum install rpm-build
make rpm
# The RPM is generated in rpm/RPMS/x86_64/contextBroker-1.2.0_next-dev.x86_64.rpm
# (version number may vary)
That RPM file is supposed to work in other CentOS 7 systems and you can install just using sudo yum install /path/to/contextBroker-1.2.0_next-dev.x86_64.rpm.
