Title: Newbie Question
Post by: edlentz on November 20, 2005, 06:05:32 AM

Sorry if this is so incredibly simple, but if I have a RPM that is built for SME 7 beta, I am runing 7 beta.  How do I install it?  I am trying or want to install Vtiger.  I can't find a How To anywhere.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

To install an rpm log into the console or use putty to log in via ssh.

Navigate to where the rpm is on the server and issue this command.

root # rpm -Uvh (name of rpm).rpm

If the rpm is the only one in the folder then rpm -Uvh *.rpm will work.

If the rpm is not on the server then you will need to use a program like winscp to move it over.

Hope this helps.
