Code: [Select]

pcre.i386 6.7-1 - dungog
smeserver-sarg.noarch 2.2.1-2 - dungog

The error I am getting is

How do I rectify this problem?

[stephen noble]

you probably have sarg 1.x installed
this works fine

the dungog repo has a sarg 2.x version which your yum is finding
but to install sarg 2 you need to enable another repo

from install instructions
yum install --enablerepo=base sarg smeserver-sarg
[note. will also install four dependancies]

you can either
ignore the warning and leave sarg at 1.x, or
disable the dungog repo, or
install sarg 2 with the above command

Thanks snoble

It worked fine for both updates after I issued the yum command from the console.  The other update just installed perfectly via the server manager
