I had the same problems on all my servers and I updated the yum plugin to the latest version on rhn.
yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.3-12.el5_2.9 using # yum install yum-rhn-plugin -y - Anthony Lopez -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Aaron Bliss Sent: Thursday, January 15, 2009 4:20 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [rhelv5-list] Yum woes On a consistent basis, several RedHat 5 servers produce the following error when attempting to update the boxes: error was [Errno -1] Metadata file does not match checksum Googling this error, I've tried: yum clean all yum clean metadata rm -rf /var/cache/yum/* None of those seem to have any lasting effect. We have several Centos servers, none of which have this issue. Also, our RedHat 4 servers have no trouble updating via up2date. This problem is only effecting RedHat 5 servers. Is there any real solution to this problem? Is there anyone actually affiliated with RedHat that can say this issue is being addressed? Obviously not being able to consistently patch servers is a serious issue.
