Hi there, Does anyone know a quick way in yum or rpm to reinstall all currently installed rpm's - ie: Some files have been deleted but you don't know which ones.. So you just want to force a reinstall of all currently installed. I have been using: Rpm -Va | grep missing >> missing.log And then more missing.log Rpm -q -whatprovides /path/to/file And then Rpm -Uvh --force ftp://mirror/path/file But it's a slow and painful process. It's on a CentOS 4.4 machine.
rpm -qa | while read p ; do yum <whatever> $p ; done rpm -qa | xargs yum <whatever> Replace <whatever> with whatever it takes to force yum to reinstall. Once you get it started, go have a good long nap:-) Then, inspect all your config file:-) -- Cheers John -- spambait 1aaaaaaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Z1aaaaaaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Please do not reply off-list _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
