Re: [Cooker] trying to upgrade from mandrake 8.1 to cooker destroyed lvm

2002-01-02 Thread pascal

I had the same problem with PATH and X11R6. It is msec related. Look for 
*.rpmnew in /etc/profile.d  and replace old files with rpmnew files.

Always check *.rpmnew files when updating RPMS. RPM try to be conservative 
and does not replace user configuration files in general. But this can be a 
problem when new functionnalities are introduced or old ones modified.

URPMI shows warning messages about files not beeing replaced BUT RPMDRAKE 
DOES NOT REPORT THEM WHICH IS A PITY :)

  RPMDRAKE SHOULD DISPLAY A WINDOW SHOWING CONSOLE OUTPUT OF INSTALLATION.

 the question is still what failed and how should
 it be fixed?

 I suspect it might be a msec issue... but I am at msec
 1 and was at msec 3. I believe that 1 is pretty low
 security although I am not sure.
 The reason I suspect msec is that I noticed an area
 where it set the path to /usr/X11R6/bin in
 /etc/profile.d/msec.csh and msec.sh.

That was it! Thanks!
I also agree that there should be a console/log for
rpmdrake. The logging should be a default and the
console an option.

Re: [Cooker] trying to upgrade from mandrake 8.1 to cooker destroyed lvm

2002-01-01 Thread SI Reasoning

another bizarre clue. I cannot enter into  kde from a
user account from either the console (startx and every
other command coming from /usr/X11R6/bin is not
recognized unless you include the full pathand
then it will kick out on the next executable called),
or from init 5 logon (dcopserver errors). I have also
tried connecting as a thin client to this server
remotely with the same results.

However, if I ssh into the computer remotely as a
user, and then type startx, it will work properly and
bring up X and kde properly ON THE SERVER (broken
computer I have been speaking about) not the remote
computer I actually typed the command on. 

This is just too strange for my brain Why would a
remote connection have no problem with initializing
startx or other files located within /usr/X11R6/bin as
a user but the console on the actual server refuses?

Re: [Cooker] trying to upgrade from mandrake 8.1 to cooker destroyed lvm

The lvm list seems to imply that lvm has segfault

in cooker compiled with gcc3?

Re: [Cooker] trying to upgrade from mandrake 8.1 to cooker destroyed lvm

2001-12-30 Thread SI Reasoning

I dumped mandrake's lvm and installed one from
http://www.comedia.it/bluca/lvm/
This got lvm back up. Now I have to resolve the fact
that cooker installed on the /usr and/var from root
and not upgraded from the ones on the lvm.
Any warnings or recommendations?

I am going to try doing it through rpmdrake and see
what happens...
