    The file skypeforpocketpc.cab is not a valid windows ce setup file

    ByEtzion 01/02/2008

    I have an iPaq running Windows Mobile 2003 SE. The above error was something I’ve seen when I tried installing SkyPE for PocketPC on it. It appears that SkyPE have decided to sign cab files, according to some new (and pretty unexplained) concept of MS, disregarding any existing non-WinXP or non-ActiveSync4.2 users (and I am…

    Quick solve package dependency with rpm –aid

    ByEtzion 22/01/2008

    This is relevant for Redhat EL 3 and 4, and any other compatible system not using “yum”. RHEL5 uses “yum”, and its RPM system does not include the “–aid” flag, which we require so much. 1. Place all the available RPMS (I assume these are the installation medias, combined) in a single directory – for…

    New version of Cacti, and using spine

    ByEtzion 21/01/2008

    A while ago, a newer version of Cacti became available through Dag’s RPM repository. An upgrade went without any special events, and was nothing to write home about. A failure in one of my customer’s Cacti system lead me to test the system using “spine” – the “cactid” new generation. I felt as if it…

    “Pinning” a package using “YUM”

    ByEtzion 06/01/2008

    YUM is a nice (and useful, when used correctly) tool to manage packages, using RPM as its engine. APT, the Debian alternative, has this ability, and so does YUM. YUM does not pin a specific version of a package, but rather avoids upgrading it as soon as it was marked. It remains installed, but never…

    mime_decode-1 FAILED: Can’t locate object method “seek” via package “File::Temp ” at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/MIME/Parser.pm line 816

    ByEtzion 06/01/2008

    This is the error message I have seen in my Linux+Postfix+Amavisd-new system. Not only that, but Amavis has kept a copy of each message in its tmp directory, which reduced my /var size to nothing quite rapidly. amavis[21189]: (21189-01) (!)PRESERVING EVIDENCE in /var/amavis/tmp/amavis-200 80103T051116-21189 Doesn’t sound too good. Partial search in google has produced the…

    Incorrect dependencies for installation of packages on AIX 5.3

    ByEtzion 05/12/2007

    Following an upgrade of AIX 5.3 to level 07, with SP1 technology upgrade, I had encountered a problem installing a package required for Oracle 11g – rsct.basic.rte 2.4.8.0 This rsct.basic.rte package requires rsct.basic.rte version 2.4.0.0 from AIX CD, however, to install it, I am required to install xlC.aix61 version 9.0.0.1, which should not be here,…
