Hi All,

Recently I've been unable to install new packages on my Raq550 via the GUI. No matter what package I try to install I get the following error:

"There was an error verifying the package file. It may be corrupted, or it may not have the correct authentication information. The software package was not installed."

This happens whether I try to install via BlueLinQ or upload the package myself, and in addition, it is happening with multiple packages.

I tried to figure out how to install the package via the commandline.

I've done this:
./pkg_prepare.pl -i -f /home/packages/<PACKAGENAME>

This seems to work because I see the package disappear from where it was originally. I assume it's been untarred somewhere.

Then I've tried running:
./pkg_install.pl
But it's prompting me for the package OID.

I'm still looking for the answer to this one. Does anyone know how to install PKG's from the commandline on a 550?

Thanks.

Brian
