Mysql 4.1 -> 4.0 downgrade problem

frisco-driver · 05-15-2005, 09:21 PM

I'm trying to install Nucleus blog software on SUSE 9.2. It appears as if the software works with mysql 4.0 rather than 4.1 which I had already installed. I removed the mysql 4.1 package. However, when I try to install mysql 4.0, I get the following errors:

file /usr/bin/perror from install of mysql-client-4.0.21-4.2 conflicts with file from package MySQL-server-4.1.10a-0
file /usr/bin/replace from install of mysql-client-4.0.21-4.2 conflicts with file from package MySQL-server-4.1.10a-0
file /usr/share/man/man1/perror.1.gz from install of mysql-client-4.0.21-4.2 conflicts with file from package MySQL-server-4.1.10a-0
file /usr/share/man/man1/replace.1.gz from install of mysql-client-4.0.21-4.2 conflicts with file from package MySQL-server-4.1.10a-0

Any suggestions about how I can remove these files which are conflicting with the install?

It seems like you still have some mysql packages installed. Do as root,

Code:

#rpm -qa | grep -i mysql

All installed mysql packages will be listed and you can remove them using rpm or yast.
