Impressive. Thanks for help.

Hello I follower your instructions and all i changed was the URL:

so i

cd /tmp

wget http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloads/download-landing.jsp?file=openfire/openf ire-3.7.0-1.i386.rpm

and not i am trying to do the sudo rpm -ivh openfire-3.7.0-1.i386.rpm

but is giving me this error:

error: open of openfire-3.7.0-1.i386.rpm failed: No such file or directory

Is basically saying that there is not such file / folder and is true. It is not such folder or file in my server.

But the download was completed correctly.

I also tried URL wget http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloadServlet?filename=openfire/openfire-3.7.0-1 .i386.rpm

Still same error I can not proceed with the sudo rpm -ivh openfire-3.7.0-1.i386.rpm

Please help me …

Thank you!

The ? in the URL is probably causing you grief. Quote the URL

wget -O openfire-3.7.0-1.i386.rpm ‘http://www.igniterealtime.org/downloadServlet?filename=openfire/openfire-3.7.0-1 .i386.rpm
