Are you sure all the files downloaded correctly?  I am betting you are missing either e-smith-kronolith or kronolith.

It is very important that you check all the files downloaded before running the update script, and also very important that you don't do this on anything but a fresh install.  Rather than trying to fix it, just re-install and try the scripts again with all the files downloaded first.

[nefkho]

hi, i have 2 kronolith files below:

e-smith-imp-1.10.0-04dm.noarch.rpm    
* kronolith-1.1.2-1es.noarch.rpm
* e-smith-kronolith-0.8.1-02.noarch.rpm  
mnemo-1.1.2-1es.noarch.rpm
e-smith-mnemo-0.8.0-04.noarch.rpm      
nag-1.1.1-1es.noarch.rpm
e-smith-nag-0.8.0-05.noarch.rpm        
horde-2.2.5-1dm.noarch.rpm            
imp-3.2.5-01dm.noarch.rpm              
turba-1.2.2-1es00.noarch.rpm

above are the files that i have downlaoded and install.

[nefkho]

hi i got it now, i have installed it by rpm -Uvh *.rpm well it did not install all the files so i did a individual file install and its working now.

thanks

Hi all

I have rejigged the scripts somewhat to add some basic error trapping on the downloads, updated some of the Apache rpms to the ones currently on the ftp site, and added some extra updates from the SME devel dir.  I have also included the last SME build of Samba 2.2.8a & some extra tools I use all the time.

The download script now give package progress through the download process & generates a log file that is tested for errors (some errors are not logged so check it to be safe).  The script also checks to see if the file is on your HDD so if the d/l aborted then it will pick up from where it left off.

The update script has been modified to suit the changes to the download script.

If some people can test this for me (works for me on my test box - custom iso load of 6.0.1-01) then if acceptaable the wiki can be updated:

I don't have time to try it at the moment, but if it works for you, go ahead and paste all that into the wiki page.

My only suggestion would be now that you have added error checking to the download script, combine the two scripts into one - I guess replacing:

Code: [Select]

echo "Downloads completed successfully. Please run the Update.sh script to install these updates"
...with the content of the update script.

Super job!

[compdoc]

Many thanks to Greg Swallow for this script. It used to take me hours to install these packages by hand.

Now I can get a new server up and running in no time, and with everything (almost) that I need running on it.

Now if only someone could automate the installation of lm_sensors and sysmon.  

Very cool, dude...

[aussie]

Hi greg! It looks like youve done the forums proud with your excellent work!

I have a 6.01 box split across 2 drives that I need to get back to one: so a REPLACEMENT seems in order!
(I can build it on a new driev and still ge tto the old one too!)
I am hoping you can take a moment to set me on the right track to do it smoothly!...

1. Maybe Ive missed something but for the life of me I cannot find the lastest sme:
is it the Mar04 6.01-01 plus the update4? or is there a 6.01-04 around?

2a. Do i simply use your script or is that on top of a 'fresh basic 6.01-01' install,?

2b. I think I should start that basic install from the re-installation floppy created (to keep settings)

3. all I really need is sme6.0, clamav, mondo (gee THAT rocks!) and www-blocking for some IPs

4. am i lost, if so I should read what??
(links to documents that result from searches seem to be broken, although forum entries work)

thanks in GREAT anticipation, Robert

[mbachmann]

1. http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/smeserver/releases/6.0.1/iso/ is the current version. Some developers have "more current" versions but you should not care.

2a use the script on whatever sme you like.

3. you can comment out entries in the script, the packages then will not be installed.

4. You can try Nietzsche

I get "directory not found" when I run this line:
wget -nc --tries=0 ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/norlug.org/redhat-7.3/RPMS/db4-4.0.14-4.norlug.i386.rpm

I can't see a redhat-7.3 directory either. Is it gone?

[ergozd]

Chipster "re-furhished" his website(-s)...

Try

wget -nc --tries=0  http://mirror.datapipe.net/norlug/redhat-7.3/RPMS/db4-4.0.14-4.norlug.i386.rpm

Best rgds, Ergin

wget -nc --tries=0  http://mirror.datapipe.net/norlug/redhat-7.3/RPMS/db4-4.0.14-4.norlug.i386.rpm
Best rgds, Ergin

OK, I changed this in the wiki script now.
(beside linking to the newer Apache RPMs)

What about using your PHP 4.3.9 update instead of the 4.38 update? Any reason, why we should stay at 4.3.8?

And I would prefer splitting the updates of already  installed apps like PHP, OpenSSH, Apache and the installation of new contribs.

Hello all,

I like to let things brew a bit before jumping in....Things are looking very good in this forum.  I am impressed with the progress.  Good job and thank you for your efforts!

I have a Dell PE600 available for testing...I want to make this Dell a clone of my current 6.0.1-01 production server.  The end goal is to have my cloned (test) production server upgraded and fully functional.  Anyone tried this yet or have any suggestions?  If I am jumping the gun here, please say so...no rush to begin testing.

And I would prefer splitting the updates of already  installed apps like PHP, OpenSSH, Apache and the installation of new contribs.

Best to leave the script as-is - that way you could just comment out the parts you dont want to install/upgrade.  Or if you want to (and have some spare time), add some if/else logic to the script to let the user press y/n to install each section.  Or even better, make the script detect what is installed and do the appropriate action.  You could see some examples in this script: http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/ergozd/scripts/MySQL-4_0_21.sh - which could replace the current MySQL download/install on the wiki page btw.
