similar to: Protectbase Plugin not working?

Hi, Is it not ok to use both plugins at the same time? I have read from the wiki page of centos that you must use only either protect base or priorities plugin. I have been using the the config file below for months and did not encounter any problems. I used priority=1 and protect=1 on base and updates (addons,extras protect=1 ; set no priorities) for the CentOS-Base repo and on the rpmforge

Hi, My all boxes are running CentOS 4.4. When They were running CentOS 4.3. it upgraded to CentOS 4.4 due to yum. But, This time, My all boxes are still running CentOS 4.4. I did below commands, But no luck yet. [root at mailgw yum.repos.d]# yum update Loading "protectbase" plugin Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files

After 2 good updates to 4.4, my 3rd is giving me trouble. I did all 3 installs the same: yum clean all yum update python-sqlite sqlite yum yum clean all yum upgrade This one, however, quits during the header download. I get "[Errno -1] Header not complete, trying another mirror", then "[Errno 256] No more mirrors to try". I am not going thru a proxy, and I can't find

Alle, I have a major problem. I'm running CentOS 5.5 on some rather old hardware (Dual Celeron 500MHz with 768MB of memory). Sometime in the last week, the DB became corrupted (I noticed when yum update would hang). I've tried running rpm --rebuild with both the 2.6.18-194.17.4 and 2.6.18-194.26.1 kernels and get a segmentation fault each time. Consequently, I'm pretty much stuck

Alle, I'm running V5.3 (newly installed) on an FJ E8020 laptop. The problem I have is when shutting down (*not* rebooting). NetworkManager fails to stop and after (during?) the postfix shutdown, the system seems to hang. I cannot access via another screen or remotely. I can't find any clues in the log files. I could use some suggestions on troubleshooting. Here are the active

Alle, I am trying to install CentOS 5 on a Dual Xeon 5160 FJ RX200 S3. The RAID hardware is an internal LSI MPT 1068 SAS/RAID controller (LSI 1068SASIME-2300). I have downloaded the drivers (mptsas, mptscsih and mptbase) and created the required floppy. When I run linux dd after booting from either the DVD or Disk 1 of the CentOS distro, it says it loads mptsas, mptbase and mptscsih and

Alle, Our customer is looking for a drive with the following specs that works (but is not necessarily supported by the vendor, that would be gravy) on CentOS4/5: DVD hyper multidrive, capable of reading and writing DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM, DVD-R for DL, and DVD+R DL. The HP DVD940e (USB 2.0, but that is *not* a requirement,

Alle, We recently received a requirement to implement a KB/FAQ solution that must: Web based Be searchable Allow registration of users Keep a history of user queries Allow new queries sent to subject matter experts via email and receive email updates when answers have been posted. Something along the lines of what CAP does using RightNow. Does anyone have any opensource suggestions for this

Alle, We currently are using OpenLDAP for our authentication needs for CentOS, Redhat and Solaris clients. We are considering migrating to CentOS DS, however, two of our LDAP replicas are on Solaris 10 machines (different physical location, as well as network). Is there a port of CentOS DS for Solaris 10? There's no point in us getting all wrapped up in migration testing if we can't

Alle, Here is our situation: Our customer leases their machines from us and contract us to to manage them (as far as all systems administration issues). The customer does not have root access to any machine (by their own choice, as they want us to be responsible if something goes awry). In the case of their web servers, we handle all configuration, they manage the content. We make changes

Hi, I have the x86_64 arch on my server so therfore i expect that yum updates only x86_64 packages. With the last *yum update* i?ve noticed a strange behaviour while retrieving the needed packeges. As you you see, yum wants install packages for different architectures: glibc x86_64 2.3.4-2.25 base 4.9 M glibc i686 2.3.4-2.25 base 5.1 M . .

This is a public thank you, to whoever wrote the Wiki's for adding 3rd party repositories, ProtectBase and Priorities. Clear, excellent, step by step instructions. I did this late last night and I missed the thing that Priorities is the recommended plugin, so I will change to that, from ProtectBase. :-) Lanny

Hi all Does anyone know what causes this error? I have setup a local CentOS repository, with mrepo, and can succesfully use it for updates & installation of just about anything. Yet, this error comes up. Here's my /etc/yum.conf: # PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo # in /etc/yum.repos.d [base-local] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base #mirrorlist=

Hey, So, I'm having a minor issue. Today, I configured one of our CentOS systems to use our local mirror (mirror.clarkson.edu) for its repositories. After doing this, I ran a yum update and received the following warning in the output along with the updates available: Not using downloaded repomd.xml because it is older than what we have: Current : Thu May 7 14:41:57 2009 Downloaded:

I have a Centos 4 box that has been updated all the way to 4.6 without using the centosplus repository. Now I want to use the centosplus repository for Centos 4 to get the latest LAMP, mod_perl, perl and other perl modules so that I can install rt 3.6.6 and its necessary modules. However, for some reason, the latest perl package in the centosplus repository does not appear on the radar when
