sorry for the multiple threads, but having another issue during the upgrade process:

thank you!

Try running a

Code: Select all

 yum clean all

to clear out everything and try it again.
Some times you have to clean everything.

If issue persists after tgriep's suggestion, can you let us know what version of CentOS you're running?
cat /etc/centos-release

And, is this by any chance an i386 system?
I ask as I came across this forum:

- thanks -

server is i386

[bwallace]

Thanks - I think were getting close. Can you post the output of these two cmds?

Code: Select all

cat /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo
yum repolist

np, always appreciate the help!

If could be other issues like a proxy server or that the system is being blocked by a firewall, do you know if that is true?

Also, take a look at this link for more ideas you can try and resolve the issue.

this worked:


vi /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo

change urls from: mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedora... to: mirrorlist=http://mirrors.fedora...


afterwards, i started the upgrade process and it seemed to complete, but the web interface is still the same version?

[tgriep]

Did you log out of the web interface and re-login to see if the version updated?

One thing to try is to restart the NagiosNA backend to see if it updates.
Login as root to the NA server and run the following to do that.

Code: Select all

service nagiosna restart

Let us know if this works.

[CarlWedu]

web re-login hadnt worked and the service restart did not either
