YOU Update Problems - SUSE 9.2
After I installed SUSE 9.2, I ran YOU successfully. I have also installed a
few apps off the DVD since then. However, I have not been able to update
since the initial update and my application installations all had errors, but
seem to work fine. Someone suggested rebuilding the database, but I'm not
sure how to do that. Where do I learn more?
The error messages from tonight's attempt look something like:
ERROR(InstTarget:E_RpmDB_subprocess_failed)

Thanks! I was looking for info on Yast - not RPM. Helps to know where to look. ;) Don -- DC Parris GNU Evangelist http://matheteuo.org/ http://chaddb.sourceforge.net/ "Free software is like God's love - you can share it with anyone anytime anywhere!"

Try 'rpm --rebuilddb', and also try to reinstall the Yast packages from the
CD.
