Topic: Shared Folder Won't install locally

[Linuxer01]

Hi,
i have a server that does not have any internet connection, the whole network does not have connection to the internet. so i downloaded the installation file of the shared folder module from http://hosting.platiniumtv.ro/smeserver/releases/7/smecontribs/i386/repoview/smeserver-shared-folders.html
i copied the file to a folder on the server and run : yum localinstall filename.rpm
but it didn't install, it tried the same thing with another module and it worked. the thing that happens is while running the yum it tries to check something on the internet what should i do in order to install it locally.

thanks

you need to download also the rpm needed for dependency satisfaction

[Linuxer01]

[Stefano]

then it checks for some repositories online but all of them fail because i don't have an internet connection.

ok..

try to install it with

Code: [Select]

rpm -ivh smeserver-shared-folder...

and let us know

[Linuxer01]

it gives this error:

error: Failed dependencies:

[Stefano]

it gives this error:

error: Failed dependencies:
         acl is needed by smeserver-shared-folders-0.1-23.el4.sme.noarch

download it from here, then copy it in the same folder where you have smeserver-shared-folder rpm

         e-smith-formmagick>=1.4.0-12 is needed by smeserver-shared-folders-0.1-23.el4.sme.noarch

what version of SME are we talking about?
what's the result of

Code: [Select]

rpm -qa | grep formmagick
?

it seems to me you are using a very old SME.. on a 7.5.1 I have:

Code: [Select]

[root@server ~]# rpm -qa | grep formmagick
e-smith-formmagick-2.0.0-2.el4.sme


[Linuxer01]

the result of rpm -qa |grep formmagick is
e-smith-formmagick-1.4.0-6.el4.sme

[Stefano]

what version of SME are you running?

please answer to all the question, otherwise it's difficult to help you, thank you

[Linuxer01]

im using SME Server 7.3

Thanks

[Stefano]

im using SME Server 7.3

you can't install smeserver-shared-folder without upgrading your server..
you could update it via cd setup, choosing "upgrade" option when requested.

is there any reason to no connect the server to internet?

[Linuxer01]

Stefano Thanks for your help but when i copied that acl  file it gives that error again:


error: Failed dependencies:
         acl is needed by smeserver-shared-folders-0.1-23.el4.sme.noarch
         e-smith-formmagick>=1.4.0-12 is needed by smeserver-shared-folders-0.1-23.el4.sme.noarch

yes there is a reason for not connecting the server to internet. because it's in a very remote area and the users are not allowed to connect to internet.

do you think if i get a higher version of SME forexample 7.5 and upgrade my server would it solve the problem?

Thanks

assuming your rpms are in the same dir and thery are the only rpm files, do:

Code: [Select]

rpm -ivh *.rpm

anyway this will not solve your problem, because you have another unsatisfied dependency

ok

yes.. before upgrading, be sure to make a full backup..

i'm downloading 7.5.1 and try to upgrade
