Cant update virtual min to latest package

See error below. I have tried yum clean all, --skip-broken, package-cleanup --problems, package-cleanup --dupes, rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest but constantly get the same errors. Please can somebody help?

Now updating webmin ..

  Installing package(s) with command yum -y install webmin ..

   You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
   You could try running: package-cleanup --problems

                          rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

The repo meta data was broken for about five minutes last night due to a bug in my syncing script. Just run "yum clean all", and it'll fetch new meta data.

Hi Joe,

I have tried running a yum clean all already and the same error seems to appear. Is there anything else i can try other than a yum clean all. Do i need to restart server after this has been done or run any other commands before i try to update to latest package?

thanks, sam

No, you definitely don't need to reboot.

Try "yum clean all" again.

I just regenerated the metadata. Maybe something was wrong even after the changes last night. I've confirmed that it's working now for i386 CentOS 5. If you're on x86_64, and it still happens, there may still be an issue with that repo (but I think everything is fine for all yum repos, now).

great thanks now working ok. Thanks for your help. much appreciated
