Im Running Centos 5.6 im trying to install Sphinx Search but keep getting errors with missing dependencies. Im running

sudo rpm -Uvh sphinx-2.0.2-1.el5.x86_64.rpm 
error: Failed dependencies:
    libexpat.so.0()(64bit) is needed by sphinx-2.0.2-1.rhel5.x86_64
    libmysqlclient.so.15()(64bit) is needed by sphinx-2.0.2-1.rhel5.x86_64
    libmysqlclient.so.15(libmysqlclient_15)(64bit) is needed by sphinx-2.0.2-> 1.rhel5.x86_64

I have mysql installed when I run 

yum install mysqlclient
No package mysqlclient available.

I checked the sphinx forum and nobody has the same problem.

Try

yum install mysql expat

This will install MySQL client programs, its shared libraries and also expat which you also seem to be missing.

  • Thanks for the reply. I tried that. I get this message `Setting up Install Process Package mysql-5.1.52-1.6.amzn1.x86_64 already installed and latest version Package expat-2.0.1-9.1.8.amzn1.x86_64 already installed and latest version Nothing to do` – CraigH Nov 17 '11 at 21:51
  • @CraigH That is not CentOS 5.anything. I think your question needs to be changed, if you are really using Amazon Linux. – Michael Hampton Feb 17 '14 at 15:49

Installing needed packages solves the issue. Here, for example, a similar situation: http://snippetsofcode.wordpress.com/2014/02/15/how-to-fix-failed-dependencies-when-installing-rpm-sphinx-search-on-centos/

Please check that you have package mysql-devel installed.
