I followed this post and get error
Hi,
I have redhat 9 installed. I followed this post and successfully installed yum. I then ran yum check-update and I get the following.... so I added some more mirrors to the /etc/yum.conf file and I still get the same thing? Am I missing something?
regards
Blair
ps I had to put the stars in because I can't post url until I have posted 5 time.

You didn't read this thread carefully
If you are using Red Hat Linux 9, use up2date not yum. I use yum and/or up2date for Fedora now without any problem for those servers I managed

up2date
yeah..
The reason I thought I could use yum for redhat 9 was that I saw a post on this forum:
Quote
"While the future of Fedora for security updates to RedHat 7.3, 8, and 9 is uncertain, at present you can use Yum along side Fedora Legacy to keep your RedHat servers up to date."
ht**://w**.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=231081&highlight=redhat+7.3+yum
anyway thanks for clearing that up..
regards

Fetching rpm headers... ######################################## Testing package set / solving RPM inter-dependencies... There was a package dependency problem. The message was: Unresolvable chain of dependencies: psa-spamassassin 7.0.0-rh9.build040205. requires perl(Mail:pamAssassin::ArchiveIterator) psa-spamassassin 7.0.0-rh9.build040205. requires perl(Mail:pamAssassin:erMsgLearner) psa-spamassassin-7.0.0-rh9.build040205.2 requires spamassassin >= 2.60 spamassassin 2.44-11.8.x requires perl-Net-DNS spamassassin-tools 2.61-1 requires perl(Mail:pamAssassin::ArchiveIterator) spamassassin-tools-2.61-1 requires perl-Mail-SpamAssassin = 2.61-1

up2date --nox -u
I ran up2date --nox -u and all went well. At the end I got this message. Should I go into the config and mark them to not skip? and if so how do I do that?
Looking forward to your feedback.
Blair
The following Packages were marked to be skipped by your configuration:
Name Version Rel Reason
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
httpd-manual 2.0.40 21.9 Pkg name/pattern
kernel 2.4.20 30.9 Pkg name/pattern
lftp 2.6.3 4 Pkg name/pattern

Hi spamassassin, run:
Code:up2date --nox --configure
campbell, please read the HOWTO carefully which I believe I did indicated that if you want to let up2date to upgrade the kernel, you will need to remove kernel* from the configuration in pkgSkipList etc... which if you found others like httpd-manual in there you may consider to remove it from the configuration also provided you know what you are doing

skiplist
I changed the fileskiplist and removeskiplist to [] and ran up2date again. My question is with httpd.conf.... It seems to me that it has not changed this file. Any feedback on that?

Well, most of the application configuration files won't be replaced as you won't want it to replace your httpd.conf which you have added a few tens/hundreds/thousand ( ) domains to host don't you? The file is saved as /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.rpmnew instead of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and if you want the updated copy of httpd.conf file... you simply copy over if you are sure what you are doing:
Code:mv /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.rpmnew /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

That's what I thought
I needed to confirm that issue since it is such an important config file.
Thanks

do you guys still run up2date regularly? up2date updated my apache to 2.0, do you all use 2.0 already?
this caused me a huge mistake, i run directadmin, it use apache 1.3, after up2date, my server was down...

Import Error with up2date
I'm getting this module error with up2date.
Apparently the system has not been checking in since March, so I tried to run it manually.
This is where it ends...
Any pointers gratefully appreciated!
[root@sb01 src]# rpm -qa|grep up2date
up2date-3.1.23.2-1
[root@sb01 src]# up2date --nox -p
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 11, in ?
import rpm
ImportError: No module named rpm
With many thanks
Peter

warning !!! --- help !!!
look guys, if you do run the up2date and have cpanel installed,
it can f*ck-up everything...
i did it once, and updated my perl...
then nothing about cpanel worked (as u know it is all in perl)
no solution available to fix even from cpanel...
OS reload did fixed it !!!
so be careful !!!!
So, i would like to ask,
how i can make up2date NOT to update anything but kernel ??
(i would prefer /scripts/rhnupdate for updating everything on server, but this doesnt do that for kernel...)
So the only i need up2date for is kernel...
what can i do ???

hrmm?
wget http://layer1.cpanel.net/perl584installer.tar.gz
tar -zxf perl584installer.tar.gz
cd perl584installer
./install
/scripts/upcp --force
would have fixed that perl issue no problem no osreload neededSteven Ciaburri | Industry's Best Server Management - Rack911.com

the tech support couldnt do this propably...
so they prefered making me a free os reload...
anyway, maybe they had no other choice, maybe this above didnt worked and up2date f*cked up more things...
Anyway, the question remains !
how i can use up2date ONLY for kernel auto-updating ???
is there a way i can make auto-updating of my kernel using up2date or anything else ???
Also, what is the latest bug-free kernel for RH9 now ?

Redhat 9 is not supported any longer. So there will be no more updates from redhat. If you want updates, (they come slow) you need to install yum and use the fedora legacy mirrors in the yum.conf to use fedora legacy updates.

On fedora 1, yum should be used because you will get NO UPDATES by using up2date.
