See: % rpm -qcp /dist/full/full-i386/suse/i586/apache2-example-pages.rpm | grep index.html /srv/www/htdocs/index.html You see, it is a "config" file in the RPM package. And look here: % grep index.htm ~WSA/apache2/*ec %config(noreplace) %{htdocsdir}/index.htm* It is not only marked %config, it is even marked "noreplace" by RPM. It would be a bug in RPM if the file is still replaced. Thus, we need evidence, which is most useful in the form in form or a how-to-reproduce recipe.

I responded within four hours of the original query. Since then, it has been sitting in your lap (not mine). At a minimum, please respond to my suggestion that whenever an index.html file is installed, it should be done as an rpmsave or rpmnew. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Looks like nut is the culprit: mallet:500> rpm -qf /srv/www/htdocs/index.html nut-2.2.0-20.2 I wouldn't consider it impossible that there are other packages with a similar problem. I'd suggest a shell loop across all RPMs in the distribution, based on the commands in comment #1 above. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I couldn't agree more strongly about /srv/www/htdocs, Peter. The same goes for /srv/www/cgi-bin. Right now, an install with my package selections puts a lot of stuff in /srv/www/htdocs: mallet:501> ls /srv/www/htdocs.suse/ bottom.html header.html munin phprojekt webalizer gif icons nut-banner.png w3c-markup-validator webdot and also in /srv/www/cgi-bin: mallet:503> ls /srv/www/cgi-bin.suse/ archzoom.cgi classes info2html.conf munin-cgi-graph upsset.cgi awstats.pl gitweb.cgi infocat plugins upsstats.cgi check.cgi htsearch lib qtest webdot check.conf info2html mail upsimage.cgi (The ".suse" suffix is because whenever I install or upgrade, I rename those two directories and replace them with my own. That's especially important with cgi-bin, because I install a lot of stuff that I don't actually use, and I've been cracked in the past because of bugs in unused cgi-bin scripts.) A fresh install is one thing; it makes sense to give new installations the scripts they asked for. But it would be nice if upgrades took a more cautious approach. My ideal would be "if cgi-bin or htdocs exists, don't change them. Instead, create cgi-bin.rpmnew or htdocs.rpmnew, and put updates there so the sysadmin can review and integrate them. But I realize that might be easier said than done. :-( -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
