Dear All I want to add "yum" to my CentOS 5.2 so I downloaded the rpm
package
from
the www.pbone.net . But I didn't have success in installing it
so
please
let
me know if there is another way to accomplish this job ? Thank you in advance
Yum is installed by default in CentOS 5.x. Just run 'yum'.
Thanks for your reply . But for unknown reasons the yum is not
available
on
my CentOS . [root@mss-1 tmp]# more /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5.2 (Final) [root@mss-1 tmp]# yum -bash: yum: command not found Can you please let me know how can I install it ?
Strange. What's the output of rpm -q yum?
You could manually install the RPM's from:
http://mirror.stanford.edu/yum/pub/centos/5/os/
Pick the correct architecture... and you'll have to resolve some dependancies manually.

The output is as : [root@mss-1 tmp]# rpm -qa |grep yum yum-arch-2.2.2-2.el5.kb
Strange. when I run that on my Centos 5.4, I get:
# rpm -q yum yum-3.2.22-20.el5.centoswhich I would assume to be different than "yum-arch-..." I DO NOT find yum-arch at all. Dunno what yum-arch contains, but I wonder if it is not a complete yum installation. On the off-chance that it is, you could try:
ls -l `rpm -ql yum-arch-2.2.2-2.el5.kb` | less
to see what files it contains, and whether all of them are actually still on your disk, or not.
And as others have suggested, you may want/need to download the appropriate yum rpm file from a Centos mirror and install it with rpm before you can actually use yum.
