We have solved this issue. Due to our inexperience in development, we were not knowing that it requires almost 80-100 additional rpms to be downloaded and installed on the RHEL7.9 server, with various dependencies of core, devel, lib, noarch rpms from Redhat/CentOS and rpm sites. At present, we have tested an offline server, without internet, with 5.3.8 source code. Somehow, It is showing 5.3.9 beta in the help about of fusion application.

@jestinpaul Hello, how did you resolve this error?

[jestinpaul]

As mentioned earlier, due to our inexperience in development, we were not knowing the list of rpms required nor nobody given a comprehensive list of rpms.

We were collecting it from Redhat, CentOS and other rpm sites and installing one by one based on the error coming while running the build command. The dependency, prerequisites of each rpms their version difference -like 7, 7.9 between devel, lib, core, noarch rpms made it difficult. Some cases, we needed to uninstall existing rpm e.g. git 1.8.3 was uninstalled for git 2.x along with other related packages. Lack of expertise on yum commands also delayed things further.

If anyone wants to repeat this on a RHEL7.9, we can lead them. We are doing this for the first time and our running version is 5.1.2 which is changed now to 5.3.8 on test server

Are you able to solve it?

Are you able to do this installation? Do you want the list of rpms required?

[edeles-navagis]

@jestinpaul , can you share the list of the rpms you installed. We are installing on RHEL 8, maybe it can help.

[jestinpaul]

We are not successful on RHEL8 especially due to python3. The rpm list used for RHEL7.9 sent
