Hi,

I want to update the mod_pagespeed module to the latest version.
When I try to update it with the following command, recommend by Google, it fails.

How can I update the mod_pagespeed to the latest version?

Code: 
sudo yum update mod-pagespeed-stable

I get the following error:

Code: 
--> Processing Dependency: httpd >= 2.2 for package: mod-pagespeed-stable-1.11.33.2-0.x86_64
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Package: mod-pagespeed-stable-1.11.33.2-0.x86_64 (mod-pagespeed)
           Requires: httpd >= 2.2
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
** Found 1 pre-existing rpmdb problem(s), 'yum check' output follows:
mod-pagespeed-stable-1.11.33.1-0.x86_64 has missing requires of httpd >= ('0', '2.2', None)

Thanks! I already installed the Google PageSpeed Module using the following tutorial: http://www.haloseeker.com/install-google-mod_pagespeed-on-centos-with-directadmin/

But what is in that case the best way to update the module? Just follow the steps again, to install the latest version? Or will that be a terrible way, because the old module will not be removed?

yes, follow the steps again

Great, thanks a lot!
Just to know, does that also remove the old version of the extention? And will that restore all changes I made in the config file to default?
 
When saying about a need to follow the steps again in order to upgrade module, I was considering only steps which you need to go through following guides from my post #4, i.e. you need to rebuild module again from a recent version of sources files. I did not read the 3rd party guide which you are referring to and won't give any comments on it. If you have any questions on the exactly guide from your post you'd better refer them to the author of the guide.

p.s. rebuilding module should not override any configs.

Sadly I can not just install the new version, by following the steps again. Then I get the following error. How can I solve this?

rpm -i --nodeps mod-pagespeed-stable_current_x86_64.rpm
file /usr/bin/pagespeed_js_minify from install of mod-pagespeed-stable-1.11.33.2-0.x86_64 conflicts with file from package mod-pagespeed-stable-1.11.33.1-0.x86_64

Do you know how to solve the issue with the conflicts problem?
 
You have to intall it using the rpm file that you can get from the official mod_pagespeed site and use: rpm -i --nodeps mod-pagespeed.rpm

If you have a previous version installed, you have to remove the previous one first.

Regards

Thanks for your reply.

I tried the following:

Code: 
wget https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/linux/direct/mod-pagespeed-stable_current_x86_64.rpm

With the following result:

Than:

yum replace pkg-old --replace-with=pkg-new

But then I receive the following error:

Thanks, the only problem for me is, how can I remove the previous version? And if possible, I only want to remove the previous version, without losing my customizations in the config file. So that I only receive the updated files.
 
Hi, i guess you did create custom virtual_host(s) files in DA, those will not get touched by remove mod_pagespeed.

You can get the package name using rpm -qa mod_pagespeed*
Once you have the package name just use (on CentOS) yum remove PACKAGE
Than just install the new one and restart the webserver

Or use Alex suggestion:
yum replace OLD-PACKAGE-NAME --replace-with=NEW-PACKAGE-NAME

Hi,

Thanks for your reply

But when I use yum remove mod-pagespeed-stable.x86_64, that will also remove my config file of PageSpeed, right?
 
It shouldn,t the system should create a new file adding .rpmnew at the end, in any case, all those worries goes away if you just make a backup of those files ;)

Regards
 
as an fyi if this issue updating crops up again may need to rum
yum remove mod-pagespeed-stable.x86_64

to cleanup and links.
then updating/reinstaling new version should work
