Hi,

I'm trying to install globus using yum. Most packages install properly,
but I get errors when In install the resource management portions:

# yum -y install globus-resource-management-client
globus-resource-management-server globus-resource-management-sdk
...
--> Running transaction check
...
---> Package globus-common.i686 0:15.30-1.fc21 will be installed
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Multilib version problems found. This often means that the root
cause is something else and multilib version checking is just
pointing out that there is a problem. Eg.:

1. You have an upgrade for globus-common which is missing some
dependency that another package requires. Yum is trying to
solve this by installing an older version of globus-common
of the
different architecture. If you exclude the bad architecture
yum will tell you what the root cause is (which package
requires what). You can try redoing the upgrade with
--exclude globus-common.otherarch ... this should give you
an error
message showing the root cause of the problem.

2. You have multiple architectures of globus-common installed, but
yum can only see an upgrade for one of those architectures.
If you don't want/need both architectures anymore then you
can remove the one with the missing update and everything
will work.

3. You have duplicate versions of globus-common installed already.
You can use "yum check" to get yum show these errors.

...you can also use --setopt=protected_multilib=false to remove
this checking, however this is almost never the correct thing to
do as something else is very likely to go wrong (often causing
much more problems).

Protected multilib versions: globus-common-15.30-1.fc21.i686 !=
globus-common-15.31-1.fc21+gt6.x86_64
Error: Protected multilib versions:
globus-common-devel-15.30-1.fc21.i686 !=
globus-common-devel-15.31-1.fc21+gt6.x86_64

I think the resource management RPMs may be prereqing the 32 bit
versions of globus-common, which appear to conflict with the 64 bit
ones. When I download the rpms manually, I get:

# rpm -i globus-resource-management-client-6.0-1.fc21+gt6.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
globus-core is needed by
globus-resource-management-client-6.0-1.fc21+gt6.x86_64
# yum -y install globus-core
Loaded plugins: langpacks
Package matching globus-common-devel-15.30-1.fc21.x86_64 already
installed. Checking for update.
Nothing to do
#

Any ideas how I can install it?

Tell it to install both the 64 and 32 bit versions by appending .x86_64
and .i686, such as:

yum install foo.x86_64 foo.i686

Hi Tony,

There was an issue with our Fedora repo that may have been causing the difficulties you encountered. This issue has since been corrected by the devs. Since the repository fix has been made, I have successfully installed the globus-resource-management-client, globus-resource-management-server, and globus-resource-management-sdk packages onto a Fedora 21 test instance. Can I get you to try the following on your Fedora 21 system:

1) yum remove \*globus\*
2) yum update
3) yum install yum-plugin-priorities
4) wget http://toolkit.globus.org/ftppub/gt6/installers/repo/globus-toolkit-repo-latest.noarch.rpm
5) yum install globus-toolkit-repo-latest.noarch.rpm
6) yum install globus-resource-management-client
7) yum install globus-resource-management-server
8) yum install globus-resource-management-sdk

Let me know if you continue to have problems installing these packages after attempting the above procedure.

-Regards

Dan Powers
