>I'm running Mandrake 9.2 and im trying to install the package "j2re-1_4_2_04-linux-i586-rpm.bin" from the javasun website.
I get an error when im running the rpm. "Preparing packages for installation... j2re-1.4.2_04-fcs error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/java/j2re1.4.2_04/CHANGES;40ace6 bd: cpio: mkdir failed - No such file or directory"
I normally install the .bin (not .rpm.bin) Java package, so I'll just try some guesses.
- you are running "rpm -iv" as root, right?
- maybe the file was corrupt dutring download, have you tried to download it again?
