According to the Web site as below, I can’t complete the installation on the title.
http://www.couchbase.com/develop/c/current

step1)
shell> sudo wget -O/etc/yum.repos.d/couchbase.repo http://packages.couchbase.com/rpm/couchbase-centos62-i686.repo
-> I confirmed “/etc/yum.repos.d/couchbase.repo”. I have no problem.

step2)
sudo yum check-update
-> I thought I have also no problem.

    You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
    You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

the circumstances
1) Cent OS 6.4(32bit) on VMware
2) The couchbase-server-community_x86_2.0.1.rpm was already installed.
3) Node.js was also installed.

I need support to go on my mission.

Best Regards.

Hi,

I see error messages in your log when you tried to install libcouchbase:

Error: Package: libcouchbase2-libev-2.0.7-1.i686 (couchbase) Requires: libev >= 3 Error: Package: libcouchbase2-libev-2.0.7-1.i686 (couchbase) Requires: libev.so.4 - See more at: http://www.couchbase.com/communities/q-and-a/issue-about-installing-libcouchbase#sthash.XDorrnyH.dpuf

It says you need to install libev, it is required from libcouchbase.
In order to install libev, you need to install EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) like below:

rpm -Uvh http://ftp.riken.jp/Linux/fedora/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

After that, please try installing libcouchbase again.

Many thanks!
According to your support I can complete the installation of libcouchbase.
I will continue my mission.

Correct, the libev 4 dependency has been recorded during build step. We are doing so, because stock libevent-devel and libev-devel conflict on centos, because libev-devel packaged incorrectly and trying to install /usr/include/event.h

If you don’t need libcouchbase2-libev backend, you can install libcouchbase2-libevent explicitly and it will work without additional repository
