Hi James, The problem was that in specific shell i run mistakenly ulimit -f 1024 instead of ulimit -n 1024 and forgot to set back ulimit -f in the same shell later the yum commands started to fail and that explains why speficically i got "1024: File too large" Thanks Alex >> Any ideas how to solve the problem? > > 'File size limit exceeded' is SIGXFSZ: > > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIGXFSZ > > """ SIGXFSZ is sent to a process when it causes a file to grow larger > than the maximum allowed size, as determined by the ulimit system > call and shell builtin """ > > ...so try: "ulimit -f", and if it's not ulimited set it to that. Then > try the --rebuilddb again. > _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum
