The problem is actually a python problem. Did you install the RPM version or do it from SRC? If I were you I would compile it and uninstall the RPM version to that it's made for your box.

When running the command *yum update*, I am receiving the following messages: There was a problem importing one of the Python modules required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was: No module named yum Please install a package which provides this module, or verify that the module is installed correctly. It's possible that the above module doesn't match the current version of Python, which is: 2.4.1 (#1, May 16 2005, 15:19:29) [GCC 4.0.0 20050512 (Red Hat 4.0.0-5)] If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please send this message to <yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>. ----- I have downloaded and have apparently installed the yum version 2.4.0-1 package, and have downloaded and installed Python version 2.4.2 but am still getting the error message. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
