Thanks for the quick reply
If I click on the rpm in kde I get the "open with" dialogue screen. When I do > rpm -U --allfiles MySQL-server-4.1.9-0.i386.rpm
in the terminal I get :
warning: MySQL-server-4.1.9-0.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 5072e1f5
error: Failed dependencies:

When I type chkconfig he gives me no error at all but no information either.
I know it is located in /sbin/ but it does nothing...

Hello everyone,
I have a problem with upgrading MySQL
I downloaded the rpm from dev.mysql.com
Try to install it by clicking on it (in KDE) Which did not work, then tried to install it with rpm -U MySQL...
But this does not work either!
On top of that I am used to using chkconfig (on suse) wich used to work perfectly well, but on fedora this does not seem to work.
Can anyone help me? Or is it only Suse that has an easy rpm manager?
Thank you very much!
Can you start out by telling us exactly what you saw when you clicked on it in KDE, and exactly what you saw when you tried to "rpm -U MySQL..", and all that?
I see this day after day, people will post here without any real information, which makes it more difficult for us to efficiently answer your questions.
I don't think that using an "Easy RPM Manager" will help you. I think it's a better idea to have a good understanding of how this all works, regardless of which tool you use.
Thanks -dant
hrm...
I do not think that the --allfiles switch is necessary. What happens if you omit that? I am not sure that -U and --allfiles are to be used together.
Thanks -dant
