Hi Friends
When I update packages in CentOS6 using yum command will it cause any damage to my server ? , I am using apache webserver, tomcat server and mysql servers on the same. If it effects the performance what precautions should I take to avoid such damage.
acutally I am trying to install packages as below
yum install mod_security mod_evasive
but getting
[root@webserver ~]# yum provides mod_security
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Warning: 3.0.x versions of yum would erroneously match against filenames.
You can use “*/mod_security” and/or “*bin/mod_security” to get that behaviour
No Matches found
[root@webserver ~]# yum install mod_security mod_evasive
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Setting up Install Process
No package mod_security available.
No package mod_evasive available.
Error: Nothing to do
[root@webserver ~]#
I guess if I update this I can able to install but afraid that it may lead to package issues etc.
Please some one help me out in this case.
Thanks
Kiran.
