Have you tried yum update on the command line? If so, and you're on cetos hop into /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo and take a look at whether you're set to use a particular mirror for updates. Some seem to have purposefully held back on 2.6.32-431.1.2 as 2.6.32-431.1.2.0.1 was released afterwards to fix a screw up You can check your mirror against [url=http://mirror-status.centos.org]the status of CentOS mirrors to see if it's up to date - if not and if you want the update you can always change your mirror (as long as it's holding 2.6.32-431.1.2.0.1! 0 -
It said it had updated when i ran yum update from a command line, and also said it had removed the old version. PS just run the command yum update and got this below Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirrors.coreix.net * extras: centos.serverspace.co.uk * updates: centos.serverspace.co.uk Setting up Update Process No Packages marked for Update 0 -
Take a look in boot and your grub.conf - is the new kernel present? what does uname -a return? If your machine is running the new kernel from that output you can ignore the security advisor output, I'm not 100% on if it caches it's checks anywhere 0 -

I was reading this because i have a similar issue, i think my kernel number is dif than above but same issue. however when i look at the CentOS-Base.repo file the centos.org is not even on the list for me in the USA [QUOTE] [updates] name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=updates #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/
not found in USA listing so can i just try some others and the do yum update on each and see which one fires the kernel update or whatever it does. mine shows [QUOTE] A newer kernel is installed, however the system has not been rebooted. running kernel: 2.6.18-308.8.2.el5.028stab101.1, most recent installed kernel:
this is my first time doing this but i gather you do it something like this changed mirror list to mirror-status changed base to the one i wanted on the list mirror.centos.serving.com [QUOTE] [updates] name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates mirrorlist=http://mirror-status.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=updates #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.servint.com/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/
well that didnt work i should not have to play a guessing game folks, i should be able to go right to the issue and right to the instructions of exactly what to do here.

Are you on a OpenVZ vps server ? if you are it uses a shared kernel and you wont be able to change it. 0 -
Yes sir i am openVZ and perfect timing because i just found that out as well. But since the shared one is 2+ years old i have sent my host a ticket to see if i can get it updated. Thank you so much... :) 0 -
Ok cool hope your host updates it for you because 2 years old is not good. 0
