  • 1.  Error while upgrading curl using dnf.

    Posted Thu June 27, 2024 02:14 PM

    Hello, 

    I'm attempting to update a new install of AIX 7.2 and I recently used the AIX tool box install script to setup dnf and am attempting to upgrade curl but I'm getting an error on one of the dependencies libstdcplusplus10-10.3.0-6.aix7.2.ppc.rpm

    I am not familiar with this process, or the error, so I'm hoping someone who knows more is able to help.  

    Error: Error downloading packages:
      Curl error (23): Failed writing received data to disk/application for anonymous@public.dhe.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/RPMS/ppc-7.2/gcc10/libstdcplusplus10-10.3.0-6.aix7.2.ppc.rpm">https://anonymous:anonymous@public.dhe.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/RPMS/ppc-7.2/gcc10/libstdcplusplus10-10.3.0-6.aix7.2.ppc.rpm [Failure writing output to destination]

    Here is the full output:

  • 2.  RE: Error while upgrading curl using dnf.

    Posted Thu June 27, 2024 03:07 PM

    I realized that while I had what appeared to be enough space in /var because that is where dnf places the downloaded packages, it was not enough to carry out the task of downloading these packages.  

    I've increased the space in /var and this resolved my problem
