Topic: SME 7 yum update problem

[jmarcosm]

After a software installer update I have the following error message:

http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/releases/7/smeupdates-testing/i386/RPMS/e-smith-qmail-1.10.0-08.noarch.rpm: [Errno 4] IOError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

yum update e-smith-qmail.noarch failed: 256

Looks like e-smith-qmail-1.10.0-08.noarch.rpm is not there....
Any comments?

Just checked: e-smith-qmail-1.10.0-08.noarch.rpm is no longer available; it has been superseeded by e-smith-qmail-1.10.0-09.noarch.rpm .

You could try to run a 'yum check-update' on the command line. After that check the 'Software installer' in the server manager again or run a 'yum update'.

I expect this will solve your problem.

egerards,

I have the following problem now:

[root@huilem etc]# yum check-update

Any clues?

For some reason you seem to end up at a corrupt mirror....?

I don't know too much about the whole yum mechanism, so I can't tell what exactly is going wrong.

Your internet connectivity is 100% ok?

Maybe someone else has got an idea?
