yum update and update via WHM fails with error

Hi, I am posting this after extensive searching of the forums for similar issue but was unable to get any information. WHM version: WHM 11.46.0 (build 17) Server version: 6.4. The server was not getting any updates as the mirror list had the vendors own repo. I contacted them and they said it would safe to revert to the default CentOS 6.4 mirrors. This is the current mirrorlist entry for [base]: mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os When I run yum update or try to update via WHM I get this error.

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

I checked the exclude line and it has all the default entries:


exclude=bind-chroot courier* dovecot* exim* filesystem httpd* mod_ssl* mydns* mysql* nsd* php* proftpd* pure-ftpd* spamassassin* squirrelmail*

Thanks in advance.

Hello :) I would suggest you to remove bind-chroot, mod_ssl* and try running the upcp again. Or if you do not wish to install these RPMs, you can try the command manually with --skip-broken and run upcp again.

Hi, Thanks for your reply. Just to confirm, by removing bind-chroot and mod_ssl you mean: yum remove bind-chroot mod_ssl ?

Hello :) Those are not standard packages included in the minimal installation of CentOS. I suggest removing the RPMs. EX:
rpm -e --nodeps --justdb mod_ssl-2.2.15-29.el6.centos.x86_64
Note that when removing bind-chroot, you may need to rebuild the DNS configuration via:
/scripts/rebuilddnsconfig
Thank you.

Hello, Thanks so much for the commands. I deleted both bind-chroot and mod_ssl. After that the update went smootly and the server is now 6.6. You guys rock! :)
