exit statement | %pre and %post

["Lis Maria" <lismariain gmail com>]

Hi All,

 

I am back with another interesting problem (atleast to me :-)  )

 

I am using RHN (Red Hat Network ) for deploying the RPMs and this is how it goes.....

 

CASE 1

 

I have an exit 1 statement at the %pre section and what i am expecting the RPM to do is to come out without installing the RPM and it should give me an error saying %pre script faild ...blah..blah.... But, fortunately, my RPM doesnt get installed but it doesnt give me any error on the RHN console. 

 

CASE 2

 

I have an exit 2 statement at the %post section. If i try to install this RPM, it gets installed, but it is not giving me any error on the RHN console, saying %post script failed....

 

Can somebody help me as to how can i get error messages on the RHN Console for the above scenarios ??? I am not using up2date to install the RPM, but through RHN console.

 

Thanks in Advance
