[CentOS] Centos7 update: epel no route to host
Hello All, I' have a laptop who's not booting to graphical screen today. Actualy I had several the last few days, related to cr repo. This one won't update, EM: updates | 3.4 kB 00:00:00 epel/x86_64/updateinfo FAILED https://mirror.ynet.sk/epel/7/x86_64/repodata/3ada5bcbccaa9772074a773b15bd01dd48e753a184ebecfed590de6c389ada03-updateinfo.xml.bz2: [Errno 14] curl#7 - "Failed connect to mirror.ynet.sk:443; No route to host" I reinstalled epel-release package, same issue remains. I guess I could update without epel, but maybe this will make things worse. Any advise would be appreciated.

Hi, there seem to be some problems with the epel. I'm not sure if your problem (have the same on my systems) relate to this, however see epel- devel Mailinglist [1] for more information on current epel problems.

[CentOS] Yum-cron
Ok, I've just had issues this morning, and went and *looked*. I can see a yum-cron running monthly, sure. Running weekly, I guess. Running daily? Why? And there is *NO* reason whatever for a "yum-hourly*. None. This is CentOS, not ubuntu-snapshot-of-the-moment. I don't know if this is from upstream or not, but it's wrong. I mean, even Redmond only pushes out patches once or twice a month, except for critical fixes.,,,. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

In a work environment? Or production? No way is there going to be an instant update. In most cases, you need to test whether that update is going to break things, and that will get you a ton more grief from users and management. Even if it's rated "critical", it needs to be tested one predetermined systems before rolling it out to everyone. mark ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Still, I literally do not see any need whatever for an hourly check.

Now if someone has installed this package, they also have to have edited the configuration file /etc/yum/yum-cron.conf # Whether updates should be applied when they are available. Note # that download_updates must also be yes for the update to be applied. apply_updates = no If that is not set to no.. someone has changed it from the defaults. In that case.. you need to find out who made the changes. All yum-cron is meant to do is make the cache updated to the latest so various other tools can alert a user that updates are needed. Otherwise you end up with someone keeping a box months out of date and then complaining that no one told them that they needed to update 4000 packages. If you need more control over testing before release, then you need to set up your own internal mirror which you can gate updates to. At that point you get the yum repos pointed to that mirror versus the world and you control your destiny. > ___ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS@centos.org > https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos -- Stephen J Smoogen. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Special thanks for the torrents go to Anssi Johansson (avji on freenode/IRC), who also manages our external mirror database and the ipv6 mirrorlist server. Anssi is always key to us getting out release as a valued member of the QA team .. but for this release he was even more so. While thanking people .. The entire QA team help tremendously (as always) .. Specifically very helpful were these non CentOS core team members: Akemi Yagi Anssi Johansson Manuel Wolfshant Pablo Greco John Dennison Trevor Hemsley Christoph Galuschka James O'Connor And keeping the Community Build System going: Thomas Oulevey And someone who always helps me figure out all the build issues: Tuomo Soini (Foobar Linux team) And the rest of the CentOS Core team: Karanbir Singh Jim Perrin Fabian Arrotin Brian Stinson There is no way would could have got this release out the door without each of these people.

This OS is assumed to be solid as a brick :) So to diagnose this problem there needs to be a lot more information supplied: CPU type Memory Additional cards? Where does it kernel panic?

This OS is assumed to be solid as a brick :) It's hard to diagnose if the only thing you say is that it panicked. If it's panicking because it can't find the root disk, then that's a completely different issue than it panicking when it loads a particular driver. -- Jonathan Billings ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

We had an issue about a year ago, where, in spite of exclude kernel, someone other than me ran an update, or there was some auto-update, I don't remember, and it appeared to *partly* install the kernel... and did not appear to do any post-install actions (like building the ramdisk). I reinstalled the kernel, with my usual disableexcludes=all, and the upgrade succeeded, and all was good. mark ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
