A file extension is by no means an indication as to what the file actually is. eg: [root@petra root]# echo "I am not an RPM" > myrpm-1.1-1.noarch.rpm [root@petra root]# rpm -ivh myrpm-1.1-1.noarch.rpm error: myrpm-1.1-1.noarch.rpm cannot be installed [root@petra root]# file myrpm-1.1-1.noarch.rpm myrpm-1.1-1.noarch.rpm: ASCII text My guess is that you got a 404 page when you downloaded the file, but it's html content in a file named foo.rpm. -- Jesse Keating RHCE MCSE (geek.j2solutions.net) Fedora Legacy Team (www.fedora.us/wiki/FedoraLegacy) Mondo DevTeam (www.mondorescue.org) GPG Public Key (geek.j2solutions.net/jkeating.j2solutions.pub) Was I helpful?
