Unable to install because nginx is not the exact version

[DailytheNoob]

I get the following error when trying to install it on my CentOS 7 machine that has the nginx repository enabled:

Error: Package: 1:nginx-module-fancyindex-1.12.0.0.4.1-1.el7.gps.x86_64 (/nginx-module-fancyindex-1.12.0.0.4.1-1.el7.gps.x86_64)

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

am I just a dummy or am missing something easy? I have the exact same package installed that is 2 from the bottom (I think)

[ilovemysillybanana]

did you ever find a solution? I have this problem as well.

I didn't find a solution. I ended up going with h5ai, a pretty great solution

Hi,

You should try the following.

1. First download source packages (This will most likely download sources of nginx with exactly same version you have installed)
   => yumdownloader --source nginx
   This will download source rpm package.
   => Install the downloaded rpm rpm -ivh nginx-*.src.rpm
   => cd $HOME/rpmbuild and untar the gz files.
2. Change your directory to nginx sources folder and clone this repo.
3. ./configure --with-compat --add-dynamic-module=./ngx-fancyindex
   You can build dynamic module using this and then just use load_module directive in your config to use it as a dynamic module.
