Title: 4.0.1-release upgrade (HELP PLEASE!)
Post by: Nicole Clark on February 10, 2001, 01:38:33 PM

I am currently using e-smith-server version 4.0.
I have been trying with no success to upgrade to 4.0.1.
I keep getting the same error message each time I enter the following commands as directed.

FTPSITE=ftp://ftp.e-smith.com/pub/e-smith-4.0/updates/RPMS/noarch
 
rpm -Uvh $FTPSITE/e-smith-release-4.0.1.noarch.rpm
 
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event upgrade

After the second command I get the following error messages:

skipping ftp://ftp.e-smith.com/pub/e-smith-4.0/updates/RPMS/noarch/e-smith-release-4.0.1.noarch.rpm - Transfer failed - Unknown or unexpected error

Retreiving ftp.e-smith.com/pub/e-smith-4.0/updates/RPMS/noarch/e-smith-release-4.0.1.noarch.rpm
bash:error:: command not found

I have tried and tried with no success. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks to all in advance.

BTW: My ftp setting in manager is public for the purposes of this download only.

Thank you Michael.

This time I entered the whole set of commands using cut and paste and it worked. Before I was entering a line at a time.
