Hello, I am having no problems using the elasticsearch logstash yum repo on centos6.x, but when I try on centos5.x I am not able to get an rpm to install. This is the error I get when I use the 1.3 repo: [http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:](http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:) [Errno -3] Error performing checksum Trying other mirror. primary.sqlite.bz2 | 2.6 kB 00:00 [http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:](http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:) [Errno -3] Error performing checksum Trying other mirror. Error: failure: repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2 from logstash-1.3: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. Here is my repo file: [logstash-1.3] name=logstash repository for 1.3.x packages baseurl baseurl=http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://packages.elasticsearch.org/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch enabled=1 I have tried turning off gpgcheck as well and I get the same error. I also tried just downloading the rpm directly and then installing it without yum and I get this: [root@host ~]# rpm -q -p logstash-1.3.2-1\_centos.noarch.rpm error: logstash-1.3.2-1\_centos.noarch.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA1 signature: BAD, key ID d88e42b4 I believe that is caused by signing an rpm with V4, which centos5 is not compatible with. Here is my uname: [root@host ~]# uname -a Linux host 2.6.18-128.el5 #1 SMP Wed Dec 17 11:41:38 EST 2008 x86\_64 x86\_64 x86\_64 GNU/Linux Is there a different repository I should be using for centos/redhat 5.x?

Hi Kevin, The Packages are signed on a CentOS 6.x machine indeed which uses the V4 sigs. CentOS 5.x uses the V3 sigs but we are unable to create those sigs from a CentOS 6.x machine. I'll get back to you if/when we setup a special repo for CentOS 5.x. In the meantime you could use the non signed packages: [http://download.elasticsearch.org/logstash/logstash/packages/centos/logstash-1.3.3-1\_centos.noarch.rpm](http://download.elasticsearch.org/logstash/logstash/packages/centos/logstash-1.3.3-1_centos.noarch.rpm) On Wednesday, January 29, 2014 1:02:08 AM UTC, Kevin Pearson wrote: > Hello, > > I am having no problems using the elasticsearch logstash yum repo on > centos6.x, but when I try on centos5.x I am not able to get an rpm to > install. > > This is the error I get when I use the 1.3 repo: > > [http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:](http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:) > [Errno -3] Error performing checksum > Trying other mirror. > primary.sqlite.bz2 | 2.6 kB > 00:00 > > [http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:](http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:) > [Errno -3] Error performing checksum > Trying other mirror. > Error: failure: repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2 from logstash-1.3: [Errno 256] > No more mirrors to try. > > Here is my repo file: > > [logstash-1.3] > > name=logstash repository for 1.3.x packages > baseurl > > baseurl=[http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos](http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos) > > gpgcheck=1 > > gpgkey=[http://packages.elasticsearch.org/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch](http://packages.elasticsearch.org/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch) > > enabled=1 > > I have tried turning off gpgcheck as well and I get the same error. > I also tried just downloading the rpm directly and then installing it > without yum and I get this: > > [root@host ~]# rpm -q -p logstash-1.3.2-1\_centos.noarch.rpm > error: logstash-1.3.2-1\_centos.noarch.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA1 signature: > BAD, key ID d88e42b4 > > I believe that is caused by signing an rpm with V4, which centos5 is not > compatible with. > > Here is my uname: > [root@host ~]# uname -a > Linux host 2.6.18-128.el5 #1 SMP Wed Dec 17 11:41:38 EST 2008 x86\_64 > x86\_64 x86\_64 GNU/Linux > > Is there a different repository I should be using for centos/redhat 5.x? > > Thank you, > Kevin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hi Richard, With CentOS 6 you can still sign packages with v3 signatures. If you could do this it would be great, as I had the same issue as Kevin. The issue (and workaround) is mentioned in the web page: [The admin's notes: CentOS 6 rpm sign issue (V4 signature is used by default)](http://adminotes.blogspot.co.uk/2011/12/centos-6-rpm-sign-problem-v4-signatures.html) Kevin: The work-around is to delete the signature on the RPM. It does mean a manual installation via RPM (or you need to create a repo of your own, of "rpms without signatures", which will probably only be of benefit for multiple machines). Just: rpm --delsign logstash-1.3.3-1\_centos.noarch.rpm Hope that helps Cheers Ivan On Wednesday, 29 January 2014 11:21:43 UTC, Richard Pijnenburg wrote: > Hi Kevin, > > The Packages are signed on a CentOS 6.x machine indeed which uses the V4 > sigs. > CentOS 5.x uses the V3 sigs but we are unable to create those sigs from a > CentOS 6.x machine. > I'll get back to you if/when we setup a special repo for CentOS 5.x. > > In the meantime you could use the non signed packages: > [http://download.elasticsearch.org/logstash/logstash/packages/centos/logstash-1.3.3-1\_centos.noarch.rpm](http://download.elasticsearch.org/logstash/logstash/packages/centos/logstash-1.3.3-1_centos.noarch.rpm) > > On Wednesday, January 29, 2014 1:02:08 AM UTC, Kevin Pearson wrote: > > > Hello, > > > > I am having no problems using the elasticsearch logstash yum repo on > > centos6.x, but when I try on centos5.x I am not able to get an rpm to > > install. > > > > This is the error I get when I use the 1.3 repo: > > > > [http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:](http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:) > > [Errno -3] Error performing checksum > > Trying other mirror. > > primary.sqlite.bz2 | 2.6 kB > > 00:00 > > > > [http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:](http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2:) > > [Errno -3] Error performing checksum > > Trying other mirror. > > Error: failure: repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2 from logstash-1.3: [Errno > > 256] No more mirrors to try. > > > > Here is my repo file: > > > > [logstash-1.3] > > > > name=logstash repository for 1.3.x packages > > baseurl > > > > baseurl=[http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos](http://packages.elasticsearch.org/logstash/1.3/centos) > > > > gpgcheck=1 > > > > gpgkey=[http://packages.elasticsearch.org/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch](http://packages.elasticsearch.org/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch) > > > > enabled=1 > > > > I have tried turning off gpgcheck as well and I get the same error. > > I also tried just downloading the rpm directly and then installing it > > without yum and I get this: > > > > [root@host ~]# rpm -q -p logstash-1.3.2-1\_centos.noarch.rpm > > error: logstash-1.3.2-1\_centos.noarch.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA1 signature: > > BAD, key ID d88e42b4 > > > > I believe that is caused by signing an rpm with V4, which centos5 is not > > compatible with. > > > > Here is my uname: > > [root@host ~]# uname -a > > Linux host 2.6.18-128.el5 #1 SMP Wed Dec 17 11:41:38 EST 2008 x86\_64 > > x86\_64 x86\_64 GNU/Linux > > > > Is there a different repository I should be using for centos/redhat 5.x? > > > > Thank you, > > Kevin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

> Is there a different repository I should be using for centos/redhat 5.x? You should be able to get the v4 repository working in your CentOS/RHEL5 distro by installing the python-hashlib package. Description: This is a stand alone packaging of the hashlib library introduced in Python 2.5 so that it can be used on older versions of Python. Once this is installed the new repo should work fine and you don't need to mess around with signatures. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
