I just installed LEAP 15 and then went through all the updates (rebooting as required).
I now want to install the DHCP server. I went to software management and selected the 3 dhcp packages and then pressed accept. After about 2 seconds the software management window closes and I’m back at Yast. Nothing happened. Same behavior with any software package I select.
I didn’t experience this in LEAP 14. I hope someone out there can help me.
I’m happy to introduce you to an experience you’ve not had. I’ve not had this either. Earlier versions of Leap have never given me any problems especially with something as simple as installing/configuring a DHCP server. As a matter of fact I’ve never had to install a DHCP server; it has always been in Yast ready for me to select and configure. 15 is a first for me. On another point I don’t know what you mean by a code box. Can you help me understand this?
Well, that’s interesting. I tried the same thing using sudo and nothing happened. In root it was loaded. OK, it appears I’ll have to use commandline yast2 to configure the server. I learned a little here. Thanks. Hope all goes smoothly from here. Thanks
Still not sure why this wouldn’t work in software management when all three packages were selected.
Well now this is irritating…
I type in (as root) yast2 dhcp-server
and I get
no such client module dhcp-server
And, I’ve rechecked the spelling by me and other parties. And, of course DHCP-Server is not showing up in the YaST Control Center.
Any ideas here would be gratefully received.

As shown above the install was forced. But why can it not be found?
Code:
RoutFire:~ # yast2 dhcp-server
No such client module dhcp-server

I’ve searched forums, Google, etc. and anything about this problem is
decades old.
Hi
What does the yast2 modules list show for dhcp?
yast2 --list

This is about configuring/using DHCP Server, not getting it installed onto the the filesystem, right? There’s nothing in the subject to suggest it, but that’s how this thread to me now reads.
