  1. Installing 9.6.6 to a RHEL 6.7 server with no Internet access

    Ron Johnson <ron.l.johnson@cox.net> — 2018-02-21T15:49:00Z

    Hi.
    
    According to https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/redhat/ I must first 
    install the repository.  However, since that system doesn't have Internet 
    access, I need to manually copy the files from my Windows laptop to the RHEL 
    6.7 server and then localinstall them.
    
    So, the question: what packages do I need to download from 
    https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/9.6/redhat/rhel-6.7-x86_64/ in 
    order to "yum localinstall postgresql96" and "yum localinstall 
    postgresql96-server"?
    
    Thanks

    Not sure if this may help you. A few months ago, I made an automated OpenSUSE installer which also had to install PostgreSQL 9.6 server using the RHEL PGDG releases. There's no YUM there, so I did it instead with RPM files directly.
    
    The RPM files I included on my autoinstall ISO are the following:
    
    postgresql96-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
    postgresql96-contrib-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
    postgresql96-devel-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
    postgresql96-libs-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
    postgresql96-server-9.6.2-2PGDG.rhel7.x86_64.rpm
    
    Of course, you may want or need to use more recent versions. Also, you may ommit the contrib & devel packages, as they may not always be needed(in my case, they were)
    
    Regarding dependencies, with a quick look, I can say these will require a few common packages:
    
    - zlib
    - pthreads
    - readline
    - openssl
    - libxml2
    - libxslt
    - libuuid
    - krb5
    - libldap / openldap
    
    That seems to be all required packages. Hope this helps.
