Trying to install Opensearch 2.15 and I’m getting the below error…

yum install opensearch

I’m running AlmaLinux 8.10 and did have Opensearch installed on here before, but it was an older version… 2.8 I think it was. Initially, I was trying to just update OS to 2.15 but I was getting that same error and ended up yum removing it, thinking I could just start over.

Once removed, I followed the instructions here:

but am getting that error.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @cawFEHman,

I have installed it in my lab with no issues following the instructions above with Alma 8.10 and OpenSearch 2.15:

Could you share the output of:

ls -l /etc/yum.repos.d/
cat /etc/yum.repos.d/opensearch-2.x.repo

Best,

sudo yum list opensearch --showduplicates

Fixed it… found this article on RedHat… (sign in required)

One of the responses said to run

sudo dnf clean all
sudo rm -r /var/cache/dnf
sudo dnf upgrade

Ran those and when I ran the last command it asked to accept the new GPG key…

and VOILA! am able to install.

Thanks for your help
