Hi again, Sorry for the trouble this is causing you. It's always been quite cumbersome to do this kind of upgrade.
My best suggestion right now is to join: https://chat.almalinux.org/landing#/ And see if anyone in there can help you out. It looks like your python2.7 installation is broken. And since yum is dependent on that, you're kinda stranded. Unfortunately I only have limited time, so I can't help you out with that. /tony On Mon, 05 Dec 2022 14:38:35 -0000 [email protected] wrote: > @Tony, > > Many thanks for your supportive reply, > but: > I found the 'elevate/leapp' method on this almalinux-site: > "https://wiki.almalinux.org/elevate/ELevate-quickstart-guide.html"; > > On that site is explicitely stated: > "This guide contains steps on how to upgrade CentOS 7 to RHEL8 derivatives > such as AlmaLinux, EuroLinux, CentOS Stream, Oracle, and Rocky Linux. > You need CentOS 7 system installed to use this guide.". > > I used the steps of just this site, resulting in the blocking described > earlier. > I took the method for a valid one.. > > An alternative would be using the "almalinux-deploy.sh" script, but that is > applicable only for transitions Centos 8 > Almalinux 8, > and -sad enough- I don't get how to upgrade my Centos 7.9 to Centos 8, > despite the method using multiple 'sed'-files, being hinted to on the github > site offering the deploy script. > "https://github.com/AlmaLinux/almalinux-deploy"; > The steps described for using these sed-commands (only one? which? all?) > simply are too big for me. > > So I am blocked on 2 levels now... > oldisnotnice > _______________________________________________ > AlmaLinux Users mailing list -- [email protected] > To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] -- Tony Albers <[email protected]>
