Logged in as root (single node cluster). While attempting to upgrade Vertica community edition from 7.1.1 to 7.2.0 , I get the following error.

 

[root@localhost Downloads]# rpm -Uvh ./vertica-7.2.0-0.x86_64.RHEL6.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
 dialog is needed by vertica-7.2.0-0.x86_64

 

Current installed version verified as:

-----------------------------------------------

[root@localhost Downloads]#  rpm -qa | grep vertica
vertica-7.1.1-0.x86_64

 

All databases have previously been stopped.

 

Any suggestions? Is there a new set of rpms that need to be checked and installed in advance?

    Hi,

     

    The error clearly shows there is dialog utility missing.

     

    dialog utility is a dependency for Admintools Vertica tool for admin purpose.

    Please check if your host has this installed.

     

     

    rpm -qa | grep dialog
    dialog-1.1-9.20080819.1.el6.x86_64

    If not, you can install it using yum.

     

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thank you. That worked.

     

    yum install dialog

     

    rpm -qa | grep dialog
       dialog-1.1-9.20080819.1.el6.x86_64
