Is Fedora different from Redhat Enterprise Linux regarding this?

Question by : Is Fedora different from Redhat Enterprise Linux regarding this?
I’m a newbie and trying to install some program under the Fedora system. But that program requires multiple packages/libraries in the OS that Fedora doesn’t have. And when an error appears, it’s very hard for me to tell in what package that missing command/library is.

So I’m just wondering: with default installation, does Fedora get installed with less standard packages/libraries than the Redhat Enterprise Linux? Is there an option of “full installation” that just installs all the most common packages for Fedora?

This is making me mad, not knowing what’s still lacking there. Please help! Thanks!

Are you compiling? In which case there should be a list, make sure to install the dev packages as well.

Otherwise you should be able to get most of it through the package manager. You can also pipe output into grep like this “ | grep error” to filter out everthing exect lines with an error message.

Question by shell: What is better Redhat or Fedora linux ?
We have already used a fedora running on a normal Intel -PIV machine. It gave a lot of problems of instability.So we have decided to go for a Redhat with support of Fedora with support. What would be the better options for a development server for around 150-200 client machines?

following are our core needs

i. We want stable OS as many projects will be using this server
as development server.

ii. This server will be maintained by our networking guys so they don’t have much knowledge of web administration

iii. Development is mainly LAMP based. We may need to have multiple instances of apache and php.

well i gusse the instability caused by hardware.
firstly make sure your server’s hardware is compatible with Redhat, to serve the clients why dont you go for Redhat Ent ?
that works fine, and you can get it free but if you need 24×7 support then you got to purchase.
