No "normal" update for Weeks now

For weeks now we do have a Problem with updating our Nethserver- looks like our database is broken.
Now we get following information in Cockpit:

any ideas?

in Nethserver GUI Information is:

Resolving RPM dependencies

Interestingly from console it is possible to do

yum upgrade

without failures

The log is relevant to centos mirrors.

I suggest you to do the following:

  • if a /etc/yum.repos.d/NethServer.repo.rpmnew exists, copy it over the real .repo:
    mv /etc/yum.repos.d/NethServer.repo.rpmnew /etc/yum.repos.d/NethServer.repo
    
  • try to clear the yum cache:
    yum clean all && yum update
    
  • if something goes wrong, check /etc/yum/vars/nsrelease is empty

obviously not existing!?!

mv: cannot stat /etc/yum.repos.d/NethServer.repo.rpmnew: No such file or directory

Hi @iglqut,

I think this is an optional point, just proceed with cleaning yum cacheā€¦
