Re: FC5 - quick yum fix for java plugin?

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

 



IOW would a

# rm java*

be a bad thing to do or would it break too many other things possibly? 

Thanks

Well now it appears that the java installation has hosed additional things on my box.  For example when I try to yum I get the below errors. 

1) Can anyone help me clean off *all* of the java so I can start over?  I have been through all of the instructions posted to me (thanks guys) but somehow it just doesn't work regardless - I still get the same dependency hell for java. 

2)   Does anyone know if there is a way to rebuild a hosed yum.conf or somehow fix it completely?  Seperate issue I know, but there seems to be something wrong with it. 

Thanks
Marc

It would appear you have downloaded an HTML file instead of the plain
text freshrpms.repo file. It would appear that you have a broken URL:

$ curl http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/fedora/linux/5/freshrpms.repo
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>404 Not Found</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Not Found</h1>
<p>The requested URL /pub/fedora/linux/5/freshrpms.repo was not found on
this server.</p>
<hr>
<address>Apache/2.2.2 (Unix) Server at ftp.freshrpms.net Port
80</address>
</body></html>
