The install and registration went smoothly, but when I do a "yum update" from the command line, I get a lot of errors that look like this: Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in ? yummain.user_main(sys.argv[1:], exit_code=True) File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 309, in user_main errcode = main(args) File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 261, in main return_code = base.doTransaction() File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 398, in doTransaction problems = self.downloadPkgs(downloadpkgs, callback_total=self.download_callback_total_cb) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 1354, in downloadPkgs cache=po.repo.http_caching != 'none', File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/yumRepo.py", line 849, in getPackage cache=cache File "/usr/lib/yum-plugins/rhnplugin.py", line 308, in _getFile start, end, copy_local, checkfunc, text, reget, cache) File "/usr/lib/yum-plugins/rhnplugin.py", line 401, in _noExceptionWrappingGet timeout=self.timeout File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/urlgrabber/grabber.py", line 934, in urlgrab return self._retry(opts, retryfunc, url, filename) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/urlgrabber/grabber.py", line 852, in _retry r = apply(func, (opts,) + args, {}) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/urlgrabber/grabber.py", line 920, in retryfunc fo = URLGrabberFileObject(url, filename, opts) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/urlgrabber/grabber.py", line 1008, in __init__ self._do_open() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/urlgrabber/grabber.py", line 1091, in _do_open fo, hdr = self._make_request(req, opener) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/urlgrabber/grabber.py", line 1200, in _make_request fo = opener.open(req) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 364, in open response = meth(req, response) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 471, in http_response response = self.parent.error( File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 396, in error result = self._call_chain(*args) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 337, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 554, in http_error_302 return self.parent.open(new) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 358, in open response = self._open(req, data) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 376, in _open '_open', req) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 337, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/M2Crypto/m2urllib2.py", line 82, in https_open h.request(req.get_method(), req.get_selector(), req.data, headers) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/httplib.py", line 813, in request if v[0] != 32 or not self.auto_open: IndexError: tuple index out of range If I try the GUI updater, I get the error: "Cannot find a suitable mirror" Does anyone know what gives? I have many other RH boxes, and have no trouble updating. Oh, I did check DNS and network settings. I can get to the RH update server using a web browser (even though it doesn't allow that sort of connection). Google didn't turn up much useful. Any ideas? ----- Bill Tangren _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
