The following list of return codes was found in the /actions/errstatus.txt file of the up2date (version 3.1.23) source. It doesn't answer what 256 might be referring to, but it's interesting nonetheless: 0: "rollback completed" 12: "Error refreshing system hardware" 13: "Invalid arguments passed to function" 14: up2date.DependencyError 15: up2date.RpmRemoveError 16: "%s could not be removed because it was on the skip list" % e 17: "Failed: packages requested are no longer available" 18: "Failed: packages requested raised dependency problem" 19: "Unknown exit status from batchrun" 20: "Error refreshing package list" 21: There was a communication error talking to the server" 22: "There was a package gpg verification error. The error was" 23: "There was a package gpg verification error." 24: "gpg is not properly installed on this machine" 25: "The package signing key for Red Hat, Inc. is not on the gpg keyring" 26: "Failed: There was a package conflict error with the package set" 27: "Failed: There was a file conflict error with the package set" 28: "There was a dependency sense error" 29: "There was a dependency raised that could not be found" 30: "Failed: Some of the packages specified were on the package skip list" 31: "A package or header was not found" 32: "A package failed to install" 33: "A package failed to install because the system was out of space" 34: could not executre shutdown 35: invalid tid to rollback 36: from tid is older than latest tid 37: "Could not modify /etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhnsd" 38: noReboot config option turned on 39: 'No packages from that errata are available' -- Jason Dixon, RHCE DixonGroup Consulting http://www.dixongroup.net -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
