Serach on this forum. It has been discussed several times.

It has been discussed many times... but nobody really solved it.

Try the following:

yum -y install smeserver-yum --disablerepo=update
expand-template /etc/yum.conf

Then test yum again with a command like

yum search smeserver-yum

If that works make sure you finish any updates that you had in progress and to a post-upgrade and reboot.

It should work for you.  I hope this helps.

This worked for me on 2 servers:

rm /home/e-smith/db/yum_repositories  # Take a copy if you need one
signal-event post-upgrade
signal-event reboot
