Title: Manually installing Update 3
Post by: Kelvin on December 02, 2001, 12:00:13 PM

Hi all,

Does anyone know how to manually install Update3 for SME 5 when Update2 is already installed ?

I tried

rpm -Uvh *.rpm

as well as

rpm -ivh *.rpm

and it generated a whole lot error messages.

It may assist you in getting an answer if you post the error messages that you're getting... "It doesn't work" doesn't give us much to go on...

Try:-
rpm -Uvh --force *.rpm

It worked for me and the Update 3 Blade came up as installed and the Update 2 Blade as not installed. - Just as it is meant to!
