Hi - I've got up2date running on five servers - four 7.2 ones and a 6.2 setup. All has been working grand for the past couple of months, but I've recently stared having a problem where I can't update one server.
basically running up2date -u gives the following output: Retrieving list of all available packages... ######################################## Removing installed packages from list of updates... ######################################## Removing packages marked to skip from list... ######################################## Getting headers for available packages... ######################################## Removing packages with files marked to skip from list... ######################################## Testing package set / solving RPM inter-dependencies... and then it just hangs there... forever... on my other servers this step usually is completed in a matter of seconds? checking top I notice that I still have the up2date process running... but it's not doing much: PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND 2465 root 9 0 6960 5948 1120 S 0.0 15.7 1:22 up2date and running up2date -v causes the same hang, but at this point: D: ========== tsorting packages (order, #predecessors, #succesors, tree, depth) you can see full output for this at http://basic.dyndns.org/up2date_error.txt As I said before up2date has been running on this server for a while now - performing a number of updates with no problems. I've also run similar updates on our other servers and they've completed successfully. I've run "rpm --rebuilddb" and "up2date -p" thinking that it may have had to do with corrupt rpm database or package profile - but - no luck! I'm going to try to work around the problem by installing updates manually (ugh) but would really appreciate any ideas as to what may be going wrong here. TIA - dan. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
