Package web install error

[László Madarász]

Hi,

I have DNS -323. Installed firmware. But I can not install Alt-F package. I tried to change download url on web interface but always says:
"Installing Alt-F in /mnt/Storage Installing ipkg Trying downloads.sourceforge.net... fail, no Packages file. You don't seem to have enabled feeds, a name server configured, or a working internet connection, and no /tmp/ipkg_*_arm.ipk file found. Exiting"

URL what I am try to use: https://sourceforge.net/projects/alt-f/files/pkgs/stable and https://sourceforge.net/projects/alt-f/files/pkgs/unstable

Can you help me?

Regards,

Laszlo

Laszlo,

    The problem you are having is due to the SSL certificates being expired on the Alt-F installation bundle.  To fix this, open a CMD window on your Windows PC and try the following commands in Bold.  Replace the 192.168.xxx.xxx IP address below with the IP address of your DNS-323.

[root@dns-323]# mv /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.crt.new /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.crt

[root@dns-323]# 

After this, you should be able to successfully install the Alt-F packages.

This can be easily done in the web UI itself.

System -> Utilities -> Fixes section

Click 'Update List' button

Now in the drop-down menu, choose '004-package update error'

Click 'Apply button

Now package updates should proceed successfully.

Tom Schmidt THX for your solution, that was what solved my porblem.

Stefan,

    At the command window prompt, enter "ssh ro...@192.168.xxx.xxx" where 192.168.xxx.xxx is the IP address of your NAS.  I am not sure why the email shows ro...@IP instead of root.

@Tom Schmidt: I tried the ssh command, entering yes the prompt says that the ip was added as a known host. Then it went back to C:\Windows\System32> why do I not see the [root@dns-323] #? How can I enter the fix command?

@akkini: I get error message, "Fixup: an Alt-F package must be installed first to survive the error."

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks and regards Stefan

Hi Tom, thanks a lot for your response and help. Strangely the command with the ro... worked when I entered yes. The rest I worked out, it's a long time I played with Linux ;) had forgotten how to do this. Anyhow, I could install the alt-f packages. I am still trying to work all of this out. My DNS-323 was ready and prepared for scrapyard, planned to scrap it this weekend. Now I can use it a bit longer. Regards Stefan
