  • 1.  DNF failing after NIMADM AIX updgrade 7.2 to 7.3

    Posted 14 days ago

    I did a NMADM upgrade from 7.2 to 7.3. I have tried following multiple directions from @SANGAMESH MALLAYYA but with no luck. Below are the errors that I am getting now.

    Hi Kent,

    Does the same error occur if running dnf iinstall script with -y ? (install_dnf.sh -y)

    I've struggled couple of times with these quite heavily too; once the only cure was to remove:

    all  dnf related packages + all python3 packages ..and even then on running install_dnf.sh -y I got errors for some packages with  "Skipped" status >>  Needed to remove dnf + python + those Skipped packages once more ..THEN it went successfully to the end and dnf started working normally.   

    I'm not saying "Don't try this at home", but however, make sure U have valid mksysb / PowerVC snapshot etc valid  backup in safe before trying .. ;)

    Br,

    tommi

    Hi Kent,

    Can you please send me the output of " rpm -q --provides AIX-rpm | grep librpm" ?

    If you don't get the output likes librpmio.a(librpmio.so.9) then try running "updtvpkg" first then try running dnf script.

    Hi Kent

    This entry seems to be correct.

    Can you verify if file is really missing  with the command "lppchk -f rpm.rte" 

    Also, you have any LIBPATH set ?

    I was working on another machine that we had migrated to AIXv7.3. I just did the dnf_aixtoolbox.sh -d and it updated perfectly fine. I went back to this LPAR and tried the same but received the following errors:

    Installing the packages...

error: Failed dependencies:
        dnf = 4.2.17-32_4 is needed by (installed) yum-4.2.17-32_4.noarch
        dnf-data = 4.2.17-32_4 is needed by (installed) yum-4.2.17-32_4.noarch

    I then tried the dnf_aixtoolbox.sh -y. It successfully installed and I was able to update it.  Not sure why it worked this time, but I'm glad it did.
