i have updated the wiki with this workaround.
i have also given you write access to the wiki if you are keen to help.
notes that should be added:
- now we could use the rpms smeserver-extrarepos to allow to configure epel, remi, fws , zabbix repos...
- server must be same version or newer than proxy and clients.
- proxy i havent’ tested , but now Daniel use the upstream zabbix repo and they have the db schema in a zabbix-mysql-proxy rpm , while before he used the zabbix-mysql-server rom to get it, that is the reason of the conflict he had to find n easy way to obsolete this and it makes smeserver-zabbix-server to tey to install smerserver-zabbix-proxy when pulling zabbix-mysql-server.
i think the real fix should be to Requires the file providing the schema.
- we could test the use of zabbix repo with zabbix-4.2 for client and proxy on the wiki, but beware they do not propose any server rpm for centos 6. which is understandable considering it is going eol and the server needs a newer rpm than the stock one.
i could build it locally buy is it worth for 6 months while we need to focus on getting sme10 out.
