Edoardo Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 Being a club memeber, I can access the club mirrors. The problem with the new directory structure seems to be gone, as now urpmi is able to show me available updates (and I can even ftp to the site using mozilla and download rpms by hand, but I'd prefre to use urpmi). The problem is, the GUI-driven update always complains about problems with signature (can't open file) and subsequent failure to install the package. anyone kwows what's wrong ?

Edoardo Posted April 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 the problem was not with the mirrors but with the directory /var/cache/urpmi/rpms to be missing the script wa not creating it after having downloaded the files I discovered it using urpmi from the command line - this was not displayed in the logs window of the mdk control center Edo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sitor Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 Edoardo, I'm having the same problem. Do you mean that by handcreating /var/cache/urpmi/rpms the problem is solved? Any special stuff to do regarding permissions or something? Probably you need to create the folder as root? Thanks, Sitor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edoardo Posted April 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 yes hand create the folder as root Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
