I tried to clean up with "yum clean all" but the error is still the same. The cpanel version is the 66.0.14, OS CentOS 6

  Hello, This can happen if your server is running out of available memory. Check to see if the server is reaching it's memory limit by using the "free -m" command when YUM updates. Also, if this is a VPS, ensure the server is not reaching any VPS resource limits. Thank you.
