Topic: installing blades

[Tim]

Can anyone tell my why I can not install the update 1 blade? I am running 5.1.2 and the blade is listed in the blades screen. But for the past two days it will not connect to the blades server. The message I am getting is :
An error occurred while fetching the list of available blades
Could not receive data from blades server
Your current list of blades will be displayed.

If I do not have access can I just download and install the rpm? where can I get it.  Thanks for the help in advance! This is a really cool product! - Tim

I'm having the same issue.  It's probably the blades server at Mitel, it could be down.  If you do want to install the Update1 manually, go here ftp://ftp.e-smith.org/pub/e-smith/updates/5.1.2/Update1/ and download the RPM's and install them manually.  If you do it that way it WILL NOT report in the Blades panel as installed after the blades server is back up and working properly.
