RE: [cobalt-users] RPM still not working - Please Help!



Are you running the rpm command with correct switches? 

rpm -ivh nameoffile.rpm

How did you uninstall the MySQL/PHP rpms?

You did use: rpm -e nameofprogram  ?

You also need to be logged in as root or admin

Subject: [cobalt-users] RPM still not working - Please Help!


After uninstalling MySQL and PHP packages, I went to reinstall them with
RPM.  When I ran RPM, I got this error message:

sh: rpm: command not found

I checked and I still have '/var/lib/rpm/' and the following files where
there:

-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        16384 Sep  8 03:21 conflictsindex.rpm
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root      1318912 Sep  8 03:21 fileindex.rpm
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        16384 Sep  8 03:21 groupindex.rpm
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        16384 Sep  8 03:21 nameindex.rpm
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root      2345672 Sep  8 03:21 packages.rpm
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        16384 Sep  8 03:21 providesindex.rpm
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        16384 Sep  8 03:21 requiredby.rpm
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        16384 Sep  8 03:21 triggerindex.rpm

So I guess I still have rpm database. How can I get my RaQ2 working with
RPMs again?

Please help...I'm lost.

Thanks!

Sean
