Hi folks:
I'm trying to upgrade from 7.0 to 7.1 and I'm having some difficulty. I'm trying to perform the first step where I'm supposed to selectively install several updates first, before trying them all, and I'm having problems afterward in that I don't see the rest of the updates on the software installer screen, and if I do a "yum update" I get a bunch of errors. I'm attaching my output of the initial upgrade, and then what happens if I do a "yum update" after the initial packages were installed. I also tried just installing from scratch all of the stuff with a generic "yum update", but it tried to install 358 packages, and hung up someplace in the middle. I'm running SME Server under VMware, so I did have to re-install VMware Tools after I did the initial upgrade, and before I tried the second "yum update", as I had no network connectivity until I did that. Here's my output:
