Hey there -
This morning I ran the yum updater through Webmin as I do every month
or so - after about two hours I realized that I still had the same
updating screen going - and no response. Seemed strange.
Simple attempts to kill it didn't work so I sent a command to reboot
the system - that seemed to work, till I turned on the monitor
directly connected to the server -
I saw this error go by - and then only a spinning cursor - never get
to a login screen. (I power cycled again and saw it go by again - and
recognized it when I tried again at Webmin and through a terminal
connection).
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/yum", line 28, in ?
import yummain
File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 29, in ?

ImportError: No module named i18n
I deleted the yum cash and no improvement. I tried the yum clean and
no imporvement
[root@trailrunner yum]# yum clean all
Traceback (most recent call last):

[root@trailrunner yum]#
Not at all sure what happened or why, or where I even start trying to
straighten this mess out.
How do I blow away the apparent yum junk in the hope of getting a
local login capability back?
How or what should I do to reset yum - seems reinstalling the latest
version is probably the route. What is the version that CentOS
uses? Should I go the RPM route or try something more specific?
Totally unexpected problem and leaving me feeling very uncertain about
things.
