Error in updating some tcz's when using " tce-update "

[coreplayer2]

After updating TinyCore's  core.gz & vmlinuz to the latest version, I always run  " tce-update "   Anyone know why updating ezremaster.tcz using this method consistently results in a fail message? 

Checking for Easy Mode Operation... OK

Press Enter key to begin batch update of extensions in /sda1/tce

I find the fix for this is to remove ezremaster then reinstall using the Apps module

You probably should run the following before running tce-update:
tce-audit updatedeps
tce-audit builddb
tce-audit fetchmissing

The zsync file for ezremaster was stale. Fixed, thanks for reporting.

[coreplayer2]

Ok thanks,  I never really know which to complete first, like the chicken before the egg..  As a result I usually repeat this entire process if updating deps and apps a couple of times, like this

tce-update
tce-audit updatedeps
tce-audit builddb
tce-audit fetchmissing

or a combination of tce-update and use of APPS to update the deps

[coreplayer2]

Only trouble now is almost every application I attempt to install from the repo is resulting in a failed message  (not sure if this is related..)




This extension appeared to download and install correctly yet apparently failed..?

Recently updated with Core 4.5.5

[gerald_clark]

Make sure you are not out of disk space or RAM.

[coreplayer2]

Ah ha!  yes I've experienced this before so I check this too..  In this machine there is ample free memory and disk space.  But it does make one wonder considering this specific issue (ie may not be related to the original post above) and is not extension specific.

Ok  I just installed Abiword and all it's dependencies, to be more exact; deps downloaded first then abiword.tcz .  On completion,  APPS reported "Failed" just as other installed apps have, yet abiword appears to be installed and md5 checks good..   

[coreplayer2]

ok this is not making any sense..

Installing ANY extension via APPS results in a "failed" message


All logs are empty


I can however succeed by downloading an extension and installing manually with firefox and a mirror then adding the extension to the onboot.lst

[coreplayer2]

must be a permission issue..  brb

[coreplayer2]

Maybe not a permission issue..

ran AB to install a couple of apps and this is a result on one download
...
Downloading: pcmanfm-mod.tcz
Connecting to distro.ibiblio.org (152.19.134.43:80)
wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 416 Requested Range Not Satisfiable
pcmanfm-mod.tcz: OK
 pcmanfm-mod.tcz
..

But the extension is not OK, is incomplete.

[coreplayer2]

yet  tce-load -wi pcmanfm-mod.tcz  appears to function perfectly.

[coreplayer2]

yet another machine fails to connect

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ tce-audit updatedeps
Updating .dep files from /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional
.wget: bad address 'distro.ibiblio.org'

still struggling to fix the first pc with a failed message on every attempt to download an extension with APPS

tce-load -wi   still succeeds (apparently) 

Also creating a new tce directory does fix the issue on the first pc.   With this news I think it's time to rebuild the system,  It's just a lot of extensions to re-install  which did not appear to have an issue prior to the update to 4.5.5

Hard to tell what's going on here..

memory and drive space is not the issue.
tce and sub-directory permissions do not appear to be the issue either.

[coreplayer2]

APPS still fails to complete the download/install of any extensions.  indicates a " Failed " status where normally OK would be displayed

While both " AB "  & " tce-load -wi ext-name "  at the command line always succeeds

having updated two machines within the last two days to 4.5.5, I now have two machines which display the exact same problem

[curaga]

Maybe /tmp permissions?

[coreplayer2]

ok thanks will investigate
