Check places like /usr/local or /opt, unless they installed the source packages, in which case they'll be under /root/rpmbuild. If it was a tarball install, then to rebuild is easy: cd <dir> ./configure (check to see if there's any switches you need to set) make make install > > When I enter the command: yum install openssh or yum install > openssh-server > I get error messages either way saying : > > " Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in ? > yummain.user_main(sys.argv[1:], exit_code=True) > File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 309, in user_main > errcode = main(args) > File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 161, in main > return exFatal(e) > File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 64, in exFatal > logger.critical('\n\n%s', to_unicode(e)) > File "/usr/lib/python2.4/logging/__init__.py", line 1019, in critical > apply(self._log, (CRITICAL, msg, args), kwargs) > File "/usr/lib/python2.4/logging/__init__.py", line 1078, in _log > record = self.makeRecord(self.name, level, fn, lno, msg, args, > exc_info) > File "/usr/lib/python2.4/logging/__init__.py", line 1064, in makeRecord > return LogRecord(name, level, fn, lno, msg, args, exc_info) > File "/usr/lib/python2.4/logging/__init__.py", line 226, in __init__ > if args and (len(args) == 1) and args[0] and (type(args[0]) == > types.DictType): > TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable" Oy, as they say, vey. Type yum clean all, then try again. mark ----------- Did the yum clean all and got " Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security Cleaning up Everything" So I afterwards I tried the ' yum install openssh ' and got the same error messages, so I tried the yum install openssh-server and also got the same error messages.
