This morning I decided to run "yum clean all" and "yum update" <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; ">and I got this:</span><br style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; " />

<br />
Please disregard everything else I wrote in the email. I was mearly explaining what led to my decision to run 'yum clean all'<br />
<br />
All of this is probably moot now. I tried some stuff that I read in the mailing list archives, and have probably horked things up way worse than above.<br />

<div style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12px;">Hi Don, <br />
<br />

<br />
Yes, I have seen that. But I don't know what <a target="_blank" href="http://timkay.com/aws/">http://timkay.com/aws/</a> has to do <br />
with YUM on BlueOnyx. Our YUM either runs through a cronjob that you can <br />
configure from the BlueOnyx GUI, or you can run "yum update" manually from the <br />
shell or from SSH. <br />
<br />
I don't see the need to run it through a third party UI or API and I don't <br />
know why that third party API would have troubles with our YUM repositories. <br />
If it has problems with that, then perhaps the makers of <br />
<a target="_blank" href="http://timkay.com/aws/">http://timkay.com/aws/</a> should look into it? <br />
<br />
My question is: Does a manual "yum clean all; yum update" from SSH work for <br />
you? If the answer to that question is no, then I'll gladly be of help to <br />
assist you to get that working again. <br />
<br />
Just out of curiosity: If you're running BlueOnyx in the Amazon cloud, how did <br />
you get it installed? Maybe that's the core of the problem, as that procedure <br />
ain't really that easy or trouble free. I rolled up some semi official <br />
BlueOnyx 5107R and 5108R EC2 images and published them to the EU-West zone. <br />
However, I charge a little one time fee for their usage to support the <br />
maintenance of those images, as that's otherwise somewhat of a time and cash <br />
sink. <br />
<br />
