Description of problem: When trying to install from an NFS mounted file share with the RHEL Packages, running both "rpm -Uvh --aid httpd...." and "yum localinstall httpd..." fails, even though the dependencies are in the same direcotry. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL 6.1 x86-64 How reproducible: Run commands on a minimal install machine. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: rpm -Uvh --aid ./httpd-2.2.15-7.el6.x86_64.rpm warning: ./httpd-2.2.15-7.el6.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID f21541eb: NOKEY error: Failed dependencies: /etc/mime.types is needed by httpd-2.2.15-7.el6.x86_64 apr-util-ldap is needed by httpd-2.2.15-7.el6.x86_64 httpd-tools = 2.2.15-7.el6 is needed by httpd-2.2.15-7.el6.x86_64 libapr-1.so.0()(64bit) is needed by httpd-2.2.15-7.el6.x86_64 libaprutil-1.so.0()(64bit) is needed by httpd-2.2.15-7.el6.x86_64 yum localinstall httpd-2.2.15-7.el6.x86_64.rpm Loaded plugins: product-id, subscription-manager Updating Red Hat repositories.

Additional info: This is a minimal install of RHEL 6.1.
Addendum...all the required packages were in the directory and I was able to install manually with no issue. Well, I had to go find out what provides /etc/mime.types, but that wasn't a problem. Not sure if yum or rpm would handle it though. Hope so...
Try: yum --tmprepo=. install httpd ...after installing the yum-plugin-tmprepo. If you want an RFE for something that will automatically look in certain directories, I'm inclined to say no without a really good reason.
Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as exception or blocker. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
This is a blocker for anyone trying to do a local install. The command in Comment #3 has the same issue: rpm -Uvh yum-plugin-tmprepo-1.1.30-4.el6.noarch.rpm error: Failed dependencies: createrepo is needed by yum-plugin-tmprepo-1.1.30-4.el6.noarch rpm -Uvh yum-plugin-tmprepo-1.1.30-4.el6.noarch.rpm createrepo-0.9.8-4.el6.noarch.rpm error: Failed dependencies: deltarpm is needed by createrepo-0.9.8-4.el6.noarch python-deltarpm is needed by createrepo-0.9.8-4.el6.noarch The basic functionality of "rpmdb" and "rpm --aid" needs to be retained so that the install process at least can be told to search in the current directory. The current process assumes a significant pre-established deployment of RH services as well as DNS, DHCP, (NFS|HTTP), a yum repository, and network connectivity. For installations that have to build a server off-line, and I have worked at several, the inability to use rpmdb and "--aid" is incredibly problematic.
Also, cannot find instructions to create and enable a yum repository. Well, at least ones that work. So far none do.
Was given good instructions my my beloved Red Hat TAM. :) The issue was in setting up the /etc/yum.repos.d/my_repo file correctly, and then just using "yum install <package>" vice any other options. For example, my config file looks like this: [RHEL_6_Repository] baseurl=file:///tmp/testrepo/repos/rhel6 enabled=1 Leam
Ok, going to close this given the last comment and private email.
