First things first.\u00a0 I want to thank all the folks that have poured a ton into making iFolder work for me.\u00a0 To all the unknown and un-named, thank you.\u00a0 Now, of course there are a few of you for which I have names, and I most definitely thank you too (in no particular order): Daniel and the NoFolder crew, Ravi Kumar, Stan, Mike, Peter, Shanti, and Chris… and everyone else who commented on the previous iFolder posts<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now to bring you up-to-speed — Thanks to Chris’ latest posts in the comment section of “iFolder 3.8 on Opensuse 12.1 (or 11.4), Part 1<\/a>“, I’ve been able to repair my running iFolder server built to the specs and steps as I wrote in the post (you can read all the comments there to find out why it didn’t work right).\u00a0 My iFolder system was already fully running in support of the local client on the PCs for the last year or more, but now I have working webaccess too!\u00a0 Woo-hoo!\u00a0 And I wanted to take Chris’ comments and turn it into a step-by-step repair guide, so nobody has to destroy a running system (if you already have one).<\/p>\n

So to repeat\/summarize\/clarify, this is to take a previously-built iFolder system (again, as built in Part 1<\/a>), on a 64-bit Opensuse server, and update it to get a working file upload\/download functionality.\u00a0 Basically, we need to do surgery to get the new\/current mono<\/code> out, and replace it with the old mono<\/code>, without killing the patient.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude09\u00a0 As always, no promises;\u00a0 as your result may be different.\u00a0 And for pete’s sake get a backup or snapshot before doing these steps!\u00a0 Now, on to the nitty-gritty…<\/p>\n

Stop apache:<\/p>\n

rcapache2 stop<\/pre>\n
To find out what mono<\/code> items I had installed:<\/p>\n
zypper se -i mono-*<\/pre>\n
I think zypper<\/code> can be dangerous to do the removal, unless you are extremely careful; as it is inclined to remove other stuff too, if you’re not watching closely.\u00a0 In fact, just to prove it, here’s what it wants to do if you start to remove a few of the RPMs (note the unnecessary removals of the iFolder RPMs):<\/p>\n
The following packages are going to be REMOVED:<\/code>
\napache2-mod_mono ifolder3-enterprise<\/strong> log4net<\/strong> mono-core mono-data mono-data-sqlite mono-extras mono-mvc mono-wcf mono-web mono-winforms<\/code>
\nnovell-ifolder-enterprise-plugins<\/strong> xsp<\/code><\/p>\n
So, I prefer to use the good ol’ rpm<\/code> for this removal, and tell it that it needs to ignore the dependencies on a few things:<\/p>\n
rpm -e --nodeps apache2-mod_mono mono-core mono-data mono-data-sqlite mono-extras mono-mvc mono-wcf mono-web mono-winforms xsp<\/pre>\n
Now on to installing the lower-version mono files.\u00a0 These few can be installed in this order, separately:<\/p>\n
rpm -Uvh http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/repositories\/home:\/shantikulkarni:\/ifolder\/openSUSE_12.1\/x86_64\/mono-core-2.6.7-4.1.x86_64.rpm\r\nrpm -Uvh http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/repositories\/home:\/shantikulkarni:\/ifolder\/openSUSE_12.1\/x86_64\/mono-data-2.6.7-4.1.x86_64.rpm\r\nrpm -Uvh http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/repositories\/home:\/shantikulkarni:\/ifolder\/openSUSE_12.1\/x86_64\/mono-data-sqlite-2.6.7-4.1.x86_64.rpm<\/pre>\n
These should be installed together to cover all the dependencies (note that they are all on one command):<\/p>\n
rpm -Uvh http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/repositories\/home:\/shantikulkarni:\/ifolder\/openSUSE_12.1\/x86_64\/mono-wcf-2.6.7-4.1.x86_64.rpm http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/repositories\/home:\/shantikulkarni:\/ifolder\/openSUSE_12.1\/x86_64\/mono-winforms-2.6.7-4.1.x86_64.rpm http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/repositories\/home:\/shantikulkarni:\/ifolder\/openSUSE_12.1\/x86_64\/mono-extras-2.6.7-4.1.x86_64.rpm http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/repositories\/home:\/shantikulkarni:\/ifolder\/openSUSE_12.1\/x86_64\/mono-web-2.6.7-4.1.x86_64.rpm<\/pre>\n
Then back to separate installs (just for clarity in the blog format, really; they could all be done at once):<\/p>\n
rpm -Uvh http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/repositories\/home:\/shantikulkarni:\/ifolder\/openSUSE_12.1\/noarch\/xsp-2.6.5-38.1.noarch.rpm\r\nrpm -Uvh http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/repositories\/home:\/shantikulkarni:\/ifolder\/openSUSE_12.1\/x86_64\/apache2-mod_mono-2.6.3-4.1.x86_64.rpm<\/pre>\n
(NOTE:\u00a0 I’ve saved all these RPMs myself for future reference, in case these disappear someday too…\u00a0 If it happens, let me know…)<\/p>\n
The re-start apache:<\/p>\n
rcapache2 start<\/pre>\n
And that should be it! If all went well, all your data and users and such are exactly as you left them.\u00a0 At least it was for me.\u00a0 Obviously, you’d have to get different RPMs for 32-bit, and I haven’t yet tested this on Opensuse 12.2, but there’s always another day…<\/p>\n
Next I’ll create a fresh new guide to replace the “Part 1” post, but I don’t want to take that down due to historical significance.\u00a0 So expect a “Part 3” coming soon…\u00a0 And thanks again…<\/p>\n
