Since the sept 5 bug, i have the problem that i cannot update or remove the webalizer 1.0 package.
Not in the control panel and not with the uninstall package in telnet.
Running the uninstall in telnet gets me:

error : package null-0-0 is not installed
(offline mode: enter name=value pairs on standard input)

Can anyone give me a description to strip webalizer by hand from my raq3 so i can install a new package on it ?

Solving this would earn you my eternal gratitute :)

I know this is a old subject here and after searching I didnt really find any ansers. Since I am / was doing the same thing I thought I would post what I did so if someone elce searches maybe it will help.

First let me point out that I am a newbie and it has been only moments since I did this , so If it still works tomorrow I will be happy. If not I will post here what I had to do to fix.

I like everyone elce tried the uninstall script. My guess is the
" rpm -e --nodeps null-0-0 " null dosent seem right as the package was webalizer-1.30.04
So I did rpm -e webalizer-1.30.04 and that worked.
Next step in uninstall: "rm -f /var/lib/cobalt/null-0-0.md5lst"
I didnt see any "null-0-0.md5lst" in there but "webalizer-1.0.md5lst" was so I "rm -f /var/lib/cobalt/webalizer-1.0.md5lst"

To my surprise that finally removed the webalizer from the list of installed packages and let me install the new one "RaQ3-RaQ4-Webalizer-1.30-04-7GIF-4"

Like I said all seems well now. :-)

Well it seems to work. I have fresh stats this morning, and no errors.
