[opensuse] Shutting down ZENworks Management failed
Hey guys, After a fresh install of 10.2 and updates through YaST online update I still have the problems with updating. 1. There are two guys who manage updating, openSUSE updater Applet and Software Update(blue globe), I guess they both do the same job, don't they? So which one I should use? Is it dependent only on my preference? 2. the "blue globe" keeps saying that ZMD is not running(tried restarting, during of which Shutting down ZENworks Management gives failed), though I have biophystheory:/home/Floyd # rczmd status Checking for ZENworks Management Daemon: running usually when I do, it goes like biophystheory:/home/Floyd # rczmd restart Shutting down ZENworks Management Daemon failed Starting ZENworks Management Daemon done and nothing changes, but even when it gives done, some NUllReference Error occurs from that blue globe updater and it closes... Anybody else is having this?

ZMD is rather flaky (I now add/remove sources using zypper, to avoid contacting it if possible); you can just turn it off completely. They removed it in 10.3 alpha 3 or 4, I think. -- Michel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Just wait a while longer. If it is refreshing repositories or similar it needs some more whacks. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Thanks guys! So I should use only openSUSE updater applet? and it gave me a warning biophystheory:/home/Floyd # rpm -e zmd libzypp-zmd-backend sqlite-zmd rug zen-updater warning: /etc/zmd/zmd.conf saved as /etc/zmd/zmd.conf.rpmsave biophystheory:/home/Floyd # Is that Ok?

Is that Ok?

It's not a warning. It's and information to you, that the zmd.conf has been saved as you can see. And as such it's ok. /Erik -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
