Folks,
Evo update on my 4.x worked just fine. 5.0 generated a bunch of parsing
errors preceded and followed by a couple of I/O errors that appear
related to an unavailable URL.
I first figured corruption on my node, so I yum erased evo, its -
connector and -webcal units. The data-server removal looked as if it
might remove half my Gnome desktop, so I left it in place.
Then I did a selective reinstall. The edited results follow. I believe
the very first error is the cause. I erased and installed multiple
times, even trying the connector plugin figuring maybe it was needed to
download files from a website. No-go.
I was able to wget the docbook w/NP.
Any suggestions? Not critical, I only run evo on my 4.X. But I've begun
a slow and careful migration to my 5.0, letting it serve as back up for
now.
TIA

Bill

I'll run a verify on my system and see if something got corrupted. I have seen two unreadable sectors from smartctl selftest output in a currently unused portion of one of my HDs. The rpm verify and another smartctl selftest may provide a clue or two. I hope no more bad sectors show up. If I see more than just a few I believe things tend over successive self tests, I tend to have a pessimistic outlook for the drive. Thanks, -- Bill

Suggest you download the Diagnostics from the manufacturer of the drive and run that. You may be spinning your wheels here, and wasting a lot of your valuable time, if the drive is bad and needs to be replaced. FWIW, below is the output of the yum command you ran, so you can see what I have installed and what I don't have installed, of Evolution, on CentOS 5.
