error 4 when trying to install package

[nickepe]

Everytime I try to install a package I got an error:

Nothing to be done
An error ocurred, return value: 4
Collected errors:
Cannot find package e2_loadepg-050.gz
Check the spelling or perhaps run 'ipkg update'

Every package I try to install, same error.
Command I use is
ipkg install e2_loadepg-050.gz

I put the package in /tmp and run command from within /tmp-folder.
Tried from both telnet and from menus in image.
I run PKT e2 image

Please help!

This is because IPKG is only for .ipk packagies!
your file is .gz
so You need to use
tar vxzf e2_loadepg-050.gz
Hope this helps..

It's exactly the same error when running command
ipkg install /tmp/python-zlib_2.5.1-ml4_mipsel.ipk

It's the same with all ipk-files

And also when I am choosing the ipk file in dreamexplorer.
I got the question Do you want to install this package? and then I am doing this it says cannot find package.
But it is there for god sake!

Must the package exist at PKT server or what?

Found a file in /etc/ipkg named official-feed.config with this content:
src/gz pkt http://addon.pkteam.pl/ipbox_e2/plugins
src/gz pkt_emu http://addon.pkteam.pl/ipbox_e2/emu_new_10

Is that the problem, that my ipk files is not present at these url:s? And can I add more sources to get it to work?

Please, someone who knows anything about this?

I can't run ipk:s in any e2 image, I have tried PKT, SIFTEAM EE and AAF, same error everythere. There must be something I can do?

try doing it from your web browser
just type the box IP in your web browser
open the plugins option
ftp the file to /tmp
and try it from there

it works on the AAF image

The /etc/ipkg/official-feed.config
is for downloading from the PKT server not for installling..
dreamexplorer may your problem it made for dreambox...
The best way to install a package is to upload it to /tmp then use the menu to install the package on aaf this is /RED/PLUGINS/ TMP IPK INSTALL

if this still wont work then try reimaging your box as it sounds like you have problem with image...
