Hi to All,
I have installed SLES 11 on my Server. Now I need to install some
packages, for example Perl DBD MySQL and zypper, but the installation
fails wiyh errors like this:

*[PK_TMP_DIR|dir:///var/tmp/TmpDir.BaWgSp] Repository already exists.

*Any package I tried to install, an error like this is displayed.

Can You help me ?

*and all work fine.

Hi
zypper is installed by default on SLE 11?

Can you check the repository list, the tmp one [repo number] may be in
there and can be removed;

zypper lr
zypper rr [repo number]

If not just delete the directory in /var/tmp.
