rpm package management on system without inet access

Question

I have a CentOS 6.7 system that is behind a firewall with no outbound. It is a vanilla, working rig.

I need to install: - jemalloc - redis

I have the rpm for jemalloc on the system locally, but it won't install complaining about requiring glibc

[root@localhost tmp]# rpm -ivh jemalloc-3.6.0-8.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.14)(64bit) is needed by jemalloc-3.6.0-8.el7.centos.x86_64
[root@localhost tmp]#

But that makes no sense to me, as glibc is in the local rpm repository, it appears to me:

[root@localhost tmp]# rpm -qa|grep glibc
glibc-2.12-1.166.el6_7.3.x86_64
glibc-headers-2.12-1.166.el6_7.3.x86_64
glibc-common-2.12-1.166.el6_7.3.x86_64
glibc-devel-2.12-1.166.el6_7.3.x86_64
[root@localhost tmp]# yum install glibc
Loaded plugins: changelog, fastestmirror, security
Setting up Install Process
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Error: Cannot retrieve metalink for repository: epel. Please verify its path and try again
[root@localhost tmp]

What am I missing?

Answer 1

Answer: Use jemalloc 3.6.0-1 on Centos 6.x, do not use (or try to use) jemalloc 3.6.0-8, as that is for Centos 7....
