Hello Mellanox Support,
I am trying to install “MLNX_OFED_LINUX-4.0-2.0.0.1-ubuntu14.04-x86_64.iso” on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS that is newly installed.
I got this error:
Checking SW Requirements…
Removing old packages…
Uninstalling the previous version of MLNX_OFED_LINUX
Installing new packages
Installing ofed-scripts-4.0…
Failed to install ofed-scripts DEB
Collecting debug info…
See /tmp/MLNX_OFED_LINUX.4164.logs/ofed-scripts.debinstall.log
Further check the log, I got this:
/usr/bin/dpkg -i --force-confmiss /home/dynamicc4/mellanox/mlnx_ofed/DEBS/ofed-scripts_4.0-OFED.4.0.2.0.0_amd64.deb
dpkg-deb: error: `/home/dynamicc4/mellanox/mlnx_ofed/DEBS/ofed-scripts_4.0-OFED.4.0.2.0.0_amd64.deb’ is not a debian format archive
dpkg: error processing archive /home/dynamicc4/mellanox/mlnx_ofed/DEBS/ofed-scripts_4.0-OFED.4.0.2.0.0_amd64.deb (–install):

Errors were encountered while processing:
/home/dynamicc4/mellanox/mlnx_ofed/DEBS/ofed-scripts_4.0-OFED.4.0.2.0.0_amd64.deb
Please would you advise me how to resolve this issue?
FYI, i have another Ubutnu 14.04 TLS(that is the same installation CD) but I have been using it for a long time. I was able to install mlnx_ofed on that machine smoothly.
Please advise. Thank you.
