I've sent an off-list reply regarding the difficulties you were having doing that on Fedora. > Downloading Packages: > (1/1): openvpn-2.1-0.10.b 100% |=========================| 355 kB 00:00 > Running Transaction Test > Finished Transaction Test > Transaction Test Succeeded > Running Transaction > useradd: unable to open password file > error: %pre(openvpn-2.1-0.10.beta14.fc5.i386) scriptlet failed, exit > status 1 > error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping > openvpn-2.1-0.10.beta14.fc5 > > Installed: openvpn.i386 0:2.1-0.10.beta14.fc5 > Complete! > > And when I try to run openvpn it gives me a command not found reply. Run "rpm -q --scripts openvpn". Look at the steps taken in the %pre script; what looks likely to have caused the failure? Run "rpm -V openvpn". If parts of the package were not installed, you'll be informed at this point. (If it shows no failures, perhaps your path doesn't include the location where this package installed OpenVPN? Use "rpm -ql openvpn" to see where the installed files went). If you can take the steps which the pre script was supposed to do by hand, do so and install the RPM with --noscripts. ______________________ OpenVPN mailing lists https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-users |
