From the FAQ, try
yum clean metadata
yum clean all --enablerepo=*
then
yum update

What's the point of the "clean metadata" if you follow with "clean all"?

you are right, it is a documentation bug, it should be splitted and explained, if a wiki jedi wants to correct it, thanks

As per the FAQ:
To flush the up stream proxies, using wget, run:

wget --cache=off http://apt.sw.be/fedora/3/en/i386/dag/repodata/filelists.xml.gz
wget --cache=off http://apt.sw.be/fedora/3/en/i386/dag/repodata/primary.xml.gz
wget --cache=off http://apt.sw.be/fedora/3/en/i386/dag/repodata/repomd.xml
yum update

Yes, no point.
The FAQ did include an "or" which was left out of my post
ie the FAQ actually says
yum clean metadata
or
yum clean all --enablerepo=*
then
yum update

so I do not think there is documentation error or bug.
