RE: [cobalt-users] MySQL PKG install problem

Problem FIXED!!!

Ok, to update all: I tried installing the MySQL RPMs on the RAQ4 and somehow
it didn't work, so I removed all MySQL traces and proceeded to install with
the PKG from http://pkg.nl.cobalt.com/  Then I got this error while
installing the PKG: "Problem installing package component:
MySQL-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm"

With help of others, here is the fix:
I did a '#rpm -qa | grep MySQL' and got back 'MySQL-3.22.32-1'  Since all
the files for MySQL are gone, a normal 'rpm -e MySQL-3.22.32-1' didn't work.
So you have to tell it to uninstall w/o running any scripts.  command:
'#rpm -e MySQL-3.22.32-1 --noscripts'  It returned a bunch of '***: No such
file or directory'   That's ok though!!  It deleted the MySQL-3.22.32.1
entry.  Now the PKG file installed correctly.

Now you follow the instructions posted to finish up the install:
