I am trying to make a patch to install an update on my set of suse 8.1 machines from my local update server. I have made a build-key for myself, I have added it to /usr/lib/rpm/gnupg/pubring.gpg I have signed the patch file and the rpm with this build key. When I run online update I get this error... jdsai:~ # online_update -s Types of patches to be installed: security recommended Product: Java Desktop Version: 2003 Architecture: i386 Language: de URL: nfs://192.168.1.104/tftpboot/updates Path: ./i386/update/Java-Desktop/2003/patches Error retrieving patches: ERROR(InstSrc:error) Here is my patch file: jdsai:/tmp # cat /root/COE-vc-patch.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ## ## Patch description of patch coe version checker Kind: security Shortdescription.english: EDS COE Version check Longdescription.english: Provides the ability to check what base version and patched version the machine is at.

Does anybody have any clues? Todd Ness EDS - Platform Infrastructure Engineering Phone:+1-303-255-4530 mobile : 303-263-2589 pager mail: nessts@vtext.com
