I've just tried a yum update on one of my C7 boxes and got the following
output.
I'm guessing to fix this I need to re-install the RPM, but I can't
remove it because of dependancies, so how can I fix the problem?
I've managed to download a later version of the RPM, but haven't managed
to find the same version as the one installed.

[root at zeppo ~]# yum install
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:
/usr/lib64/python2.7/lib-dynload/itertoolsmodule.so: cannot read file data:
Input/output error
Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.
It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:

Hi Gary, That "Input/output error" suggests a disk problem to me. Does that file /usr/lib64/python2.7/lib-dynload/itertoolsmodule.so actually exist and is it readable? Also look the the output of 'rpm -V python-libs' to see if rpm considers the installed files to be corrupt. If it's not that, then you could try 'yum reinstall python-libs'.

Hi Paddy, I was suspecting the same, and from the output below I think you're right. However, I was hoping I could just repair this problem for now, and worry about replacing the HDD later. I need to resume some services that also seem to generate this same error.
