[ScalixSupport]

We definitely support FC3. :-)

The recurring error in the log you posted is "not an rpm package".

This could mean many things. The first thing to check is that the files are valid.

The md5sum value for the FC3 rpm is:

3473e40639ffc5e14ac91e47ce399b16 scalix-server-9.2.0.115-1.fc3.i386.rpm

If that's OK, run the command:

rpm -q -l -p scalix-server-9.2.0.115-1.fc3.i386.rpm

to ensure that you can actually read the RPM file properly.

Cheers
