  • 1.  DNF Update Failure

    Posted 09/21/22 11:12 AM
    This server in question is running AIX 7300-00-01-2148 and did not have any previous version of YUM installed on it.  The install_dnf.sh -d was used to install DNF successfully.

    After installing DNF on a server, we have encountered the following problem with trying to use dnf update.

    # /opt/freeware/bin/dnf update
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/opt/freeware/bin/dnf", line 58, in <module>
    from dnf.cli import main

    import dnf.base
    File "/opt/freeware/lib/python3.7/site-packages/dnf/base.py", line 29, in <module>

    from . import _common_types
    ImportError: 0509-022 Cannot load module /opt/freeware/lib64/librepo.a(librepo.so.0).

    Anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this?

    Hi Dave,

    Where's libcrypto? Does the .a file exist? If so, use 'ar' to look inside the archive. Does so.1.0.2 exist?

    Maybe you just need to apply a fixpack to your AIX install?

    Hi Mario:

    I looked at your suggestions and all the part are in place.  I then played a hunch.  The environment variable of LIBPATH wasn't set so I set it to LIBPATH=/usr/lib:/opt/freeware/lib:/opt/freeware/lib64:/opt/freeware/64/lib which is all the directories on the system that have libcrypto in them.  Then tried the dnf update command again.  Result below.

    # /opt/freeware/bin/dnf update

    Nothing to do.
    Complete!

    Setting the LIBPATH worked.  Now sadly I believe I have to get our firewall gang to allow this traffic.  Nothing is easy.  However, a big thanks for getting my memory molecules in order.
