SME 7.3 update problem
« on: March 23, 2008, 04:05:02 PM »
Fresh install of SME 7.3 and when I go in to Software Installer I am told "There are updates available for your system. These updates should be installed as soon as possible." but on clicking on install updates I have been presented with the same lot of updates 5 times now. I follow the instructions and click on "Install selected updates" and click on the reconfiquire when the updates have been completed the server reboot's and when I go back in to Software Installer I an given the same updates to install again

Thanks Troy

log in to the server via SSH make sure you setup remote access first then type yum update and do it via the shell

No stock installations should work, please report this as a bug in the bug tracker so the developers can help diagnose the problem and decide if this is a problem only in your case or more users might be suffering such an issue. They will probably suggest the workaround as well, but at least we have things documented for future reference in the place where it is expected.
