PlatformRocky LinuxOSRocky LinuxOS Version8.5
Summary0000364: Package naming convention is not followed for mod_ssl
DescriptionStandard linux package follows the naming convention as mod-ssl (with hyphen between) but in rocky linux it is declared as mod_ssl (with underscore).

In Centos 7 too this package is mod-ssl ( with hyphen which is correct).

Fix : change package name from mod_ssl to mod-ssl

Shahid,

Do you have a third-party repo on your CentOS machine? Just a thought to explain why you are saying there is a difference.

On a CentOS 7 machine:

  sudo yum list *mod_ssl*
  Installed Packages
  mod_ssl.x86_64 1:2.4.6-97.el7.centos.5 @updates

  sudo yum list *mod-ssl*
  Error: No matching Packages to list

Rocky is not changing the package name. It just uses the spec file provided by the package maintainer.

Regards,
Michael

Apologize for causing inconvenience !. It was an error in our procedure!.
It was a part of Docker image creation. I am closely monitored now! Centos too failed to install via mod-ssl but not terminating the image creation process so I was not able to figure out but Rocky linux is terminating the image creation process.

We were upgrading all our microservices to use rocky linux from Centos!

I appreciate your prompt response!. This is first time I did mistake while opening a bug!.

No problem at all. We're glad you were able to resolve the issue.

If you're installing via kickstart, the reason it may not work on rocky is because you are specifying %packages --ignoremissing for CentOS, but not for Rocky. Without --ignoremissing, the installation will halt/abort if a specified package cannot be installed. I'd actually recommend keeping that flag removed as it will help you ensure that your kickstarts are Correct

I'll close this out, but please feel free to post on the forums, in chat/irc, or on the mailing lists if you'd like to continue the discussion!
