Title: "errors installing the SMEServer-5.0_Update2-07 blade&q
Post by: Patrick on July 01, 2002, 10:23:32 AM

Here the problem - I am attempting to update an SME V 5.0 server to get the latest patches.  Is it safe to assume that Update 2-07 will fix the Apache and SSH security issues?

When I attempt to run the SME blades update on V 5.0 via the server manager panel, I get the following error message:

=========================================================
You are about to install the SMEServer-5.0_Update2-07 blade.

There were errors installing the SMEServer-5.0_Update2-07 blade

Does anyone know how I can get around this?  Manual install?  If so - procedures would be nice?  Does it have to be forced?  If so, what do I need to check to make sure I don't break something else?  Thanks.

Regards,
Patrick

Okay, so I'm feeling a bit stupid here now - it's been a long weekend.  I just checked and realized that I have the latest V 5.0 update already installed:

Welcome to the March Networks SME Server.
[root@bcsrv1 /root]# rpm -q SMEServer
SMEServer-5.0_Update4-03
[root@bcsrv1 /root]#
====================================================

So now the question is this - how do I get and install the Apache and SSH patches on this V 5.0 server?  I guess the best thing would be to get V 5.1.2 installed on this server, but I am 3 hours away from it - so I need to do the "patching" remotely.

Ideas, suggestions, tips would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Regards,
Patrick

You wait for their release! From the article: "An update for SME Server 5.0 will
be released early next week."  The blades released Friday are for SME Server
5.1.2 and 5.1.1.

Cheers,

Thanks, Rich.  Guess I misses that part of the article.  (I better go get some sleep.) :)
