Up2date crash

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hey all,

Running RHES3 and did an up2date.  The / partition was full and because
of this up2date crashed during the install phase.

Now the server won't boot correctly, I've lost X windows and have to
boot to runlevel 3.  Non of my daemons start automatically so I have to
run /etc/init/network and every thing else in /etc/init.d/ manually to
get things going.

If I run up2date -u again, I get the following.

[root@mis02tc07927 root]# up2date -u
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 1174, in ?
    sys.exit(main() or 0)
  File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 668, in main
    up2dateAuth.updateLoginInfo()
  File "up2dateAuth.py", line 151, in updateLoginInfo
  File "up2dateAuth.py", line 105, in login
  File "up2dateAuth.py", line 49, in maybeUpdateVersion
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2dateUtils.py", line 228, in
getVersion
    release, version = getOSVersionAndRelease()
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2dateUtils.py", line 221, in
getOSVersionAndRelease
    raise up2dateErrors.RpmError(
up2date_client.up2dateErrors.RpmError: RPM error.  The message was:
Could not determine what version of Red Hat Linux you are running.
If you get this error, try running

                rpm --rebuilddb

Although running rpm --rebuilddb does't help.

Any ideas how I can unscrew this without a total re-install?

Thanks,

Jeff
