From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6 Description of problem: Up2date offers java-1.4.2-ibm-1.4.2.2-1jpp_9rh.src.rpm, but when trying to install that, it gives this error: There was a fatal error communicating with the server. The message was: File Not Found: java-1.4.2-ibm-1.4.2.2-1jpp_9rh.src.rpm Error Message: Invalid RPM package java-1.4.2-ibm-1.4.2.2-1jpp_9rh.src.rpm requested Error Class Code: 17 Error Class Info: File not found. Explanation: An error has occurred while processing your request. If this problem persists please enter a bug report at bugzilla.redhat.com. If you choose to submit the bug report, please be sure to include details of what you were trying to do when this error occurred and details on how to reproduce this problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: With java-1.4.2-ibm-1.4.2.0-1jpp_13rh.src.rpm installed, 1. Run up2date 2. Check "[X] Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (v. 3 for x86) Extras", press Forward. 3. Select package "java-1.4.2-ibm, 1.4.2.2-1jpp_9rh, i386", from Channel rhel-i386-es-3-extras. 4. Press "Forward". Actual Results: Up2date fails to fetch the rpm file. Expected Results: Up2date should have fetched and installed the rpm. Additional info:
We don't make SDK SRPMs available on RHN because they don't actually contain the SDK source code. They only repackage the tarballs we get from IBM into the JPackage format. Closing as NOTABUG.
Shouldn't it then be removed from the up2date's list of "Available Package Updates" (step 3)? Up2date still offers this package for download, even though it's not really available. At the moment "[X] Select all packages" can't be used because that selects that non-existing java-1.4.2-ibm package too.
Yes, likely an RHN bug. Can you file it separately under the up2date component?
Ok. Filed as bug #172712: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=172712
