I've got a couple of ideas of things to try. I guess last time you just ran the installer program with no arguments? All of my comments assume you're using bash BTW.
It shouldn't matter what proxy server you're using because you're doing an install from local media. If you want, try changing the http_proxy bash environment variable and then run the script again. % export http_proxy="" (or something else) if the http_proxy variable is stuffing things up then you should see the error message change slightly --- however I doubt it is as the missing file (which appears to contain a URL) doesn't seem to have any proxy info in it. What options can you pass to the installer program? Does it accept "--help" to find out more? Hmm, which directory exactly contains the gnucash rpm? You could try searching the install-i386 script to find where it's trying to install the rpms, and modify those lines. If you're not a bash guru then send it to me. Hmm, that's assuming that it's a bash script and not a binary file. If you do that then accompany it with the output from: % find /share so I know where all the files are :) Apart from that, I'm out of easy ideas (and, for that matter, hard ones:) Tim k
