I just build a new server and once I was able to log on, I did a yum -y update The download (~100Mb) and updates all completed. It is now in the cleanup and hung on 56/77 it has been on that entry for a couple hours. How do I recover from this? close terminal window, open new and then: yum clean ??? Should I reboot prior to the clean?
Check the list archives for : "futex.. How to remove lots of duplicate packages" http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2006-March/thread.html#62319 "yum update killed on cleanup stage - anything to worry about?" http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2006-March/thread.html#62568 It sounds like you're suffering from this futex error, I don't know if strace-ing the yum process will confirm this but you can give it a try. You'll probably have to kill the process then check for duplicate packages as covered in those threads. Will. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
