You (or someone) probably installed the package manually or something like that, ie. not via up2date. Therefore the up2date profile in the server has no knowledge of this package already installed in your machine, and try to update it.
Run 'up2date -p' to update your profile, then try again.
The -p option doesn't fix the problem. It still gives the same error:
Fetching Obsoletes list for channel: rhel-i386-es-3...

This is a new ES3 server install as of yesterday. We ran up2date yesterday without this issue and no RPMs have been manually installed. We do have Plesk on this box and did some psa related installs/upgrades which included the Tomcat server. I suppose Plesk could have installed it as part of that Java package.
Any clue on how to correct this? Should I just add it to my config file to skip 'xerces*'? It's not letting me do any other patches with the -u option due to this error.
Sorry, I'm a newbie when it comes to up2date. I'm used to using YUM on the legacy RH9.
