I go into pupget, and get that green screen, but whenever I try to go to Install_or_remove_packages I get this weird disclamer like thing, but whenever I hit ok nothing happens..

At first I thought that it was a problem with the server, so I started pupget, pressed the button and it worked.

It seems that the server was sendin you an image telling you that there was a bug in the PHP script (on the server, not your computer).

Try again.

Did you install any newer version of one of the scripting tools or something?

I'd recommend you have a look at the pupget script and see what it's doing. That will shed some light for sure.

It's in /usr/sbin and its not dotpup is the pupget script

=========

After you click on the Install_or_remove_pkgs, do you get the yellow "Processing, please wait" ? or do you get the error right away?

And yes I get the processing box.

You can now delete all the code that you put in the previous post to unclutter the thread. It is no longer necessary as the script seems OK.

Please edit that post, and just add that the script seems to be OK

Now I've got a hint:

After you get the error, close the screen and attach the following files (don't paste the contents, just attach the file)

Code:
/tmp/pkgdialog
/root/.packages/alienpackages.txt


I am almost sure that the problem is there. I think that the culprit is a DotPup that didn't register itself correctly.

Once you attach that file I will be able to solve your problem once and for all.

Actually now that you know what the problem may be, you may remember playing arround creating DotPups or something like that.

The format on each line of the alienpackages.txt file should be something like the following:
Code:
"tightvncserver" "tightvncserver-1.2.9-0.4" on "CONSAPPS 245K" \

this is "string1" "string1" on "string1" \

If any of the components is missing (any of the strings or the 'on' or the \ ) you will get that error.

What version of puppy do you have?

Do you have a /root/.packages/livepackages.txt?

if you are using puppy 1.0.4 you can try replacing your "livepackages.txt" with mine. I am sending it compressed so the server does not block it.

For some reason the pupget is not finding the livepackages.txt (they get appened to the script that you just sent me. In your case they are not there, that's why you are getting the error.

Now the real question:

Why did you loose that file?
Were you playing around with your pup file?

I think somehow, I broke my puppy's leg off.
But it's fixed.

I think I tried installing that gtk.pup thing, and it said I needed a newer puppy.
And I think that might have been what started it.
