Hello all, I can't get "yum update" to work on Fedora Core 1 after I: 1. Installed cups and httpd from: http://download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/1/updates-testing/i386/ (by downloading them and doing a "rpm -Fvh *.rpm"; the installs seem to have gone fine. 2. Typed "yum update". Here is my yum.conf file: [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum debuglevel=4 logfile=/var/log/yum.log pkgpolicy=newest distroverpkg=fedora-release #distroverpkg=fedora-legacy tolerant=1 exactarch=0 retries=1 [base] name=Fedora Core $releasever base #baseurl=http://download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/$releasever/os/$basearch baseurl=http://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/$releasever/os/$basearch #[updates] #name=Fedora Core $releasever updates #baseurl=http://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/$releasever/updates/$basearch [legacy-utils] name=Fedora Legacy utilities for Fedora Core $releasever baseurl=http://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/$releasever/legacy-utils/$basearch [updates-testing] name=Fedora Core $releasever updates baseurl=http://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/$releasever/updates-testing/$basearch 3. When I type "yum update", the following output occurs (debug level set to "4"... # yum update Unable to find pid Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) Server: Fedora Core 1 base CacheDir: /var/cache/yum/base Getting header.info from server failover: baseURL = http://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/1/os/i386 failover: path = /headers/header.info headerinfofn: /var/cache/yum/base/header.info Server: Fedora Legacy utilities for Fedora Core 1 CacheDir: /var/cache/yum/legacy-utils Getting header.info from server failover: baseURL = http://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/1/legacy-utils/i386 failover: path = /headers/header.info headerinfofn: /var/cache/yum/legacy-utils/header.info Server: Fedora Core 1 updates CacheDir: /var/cache/yum/updates-testing Getting header.info from server failover: baseURL = http://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/1/updates-testing/i386 failover: path = /headers/header.info headerinfofn: /var/cache/yum/updates-testing/header.info I have also tried this with the default URLs from the http://www.fedoralegacy.org/download/ site for FC1. Doesn't work. It also hangs after the part where it tries to find the "[updates]". Now, I also notice this morning that several processes have hung on my system: 29442 ? S 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/bin/run-parts /etc/cron.daily 31730 ? S 0:00 /bin/sh /etc/cron.daily/rpm 31731 ? S 0:00 awk -v progname=/etc/cron.daily/rpm progname {????? 31732 ? S 0:05 /usr/lib/rpm/rpmq -q --all --qf %{name}-%{version}-%{ I have also typed "yum clean" but that hangs too. What's going on? Any help appreciated. ******************************************************************************* Gilbert Sebenste ******** (My opinions only!) ****** Staff Meteorologist, Northern Illinois University **** E-mail: sebenste@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx *** web: http://weather.admin.niu.edu ** Work phone: 815-753-5492 * ******************************************************************************* -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
