Any idea what's going on and how to fix it?

Hey there! The first thing I would try would be this, since it mentions a Yum cache file in your output:

Code: 

                          yum clean all yum makecache yum update

If that doesn't resolve the issue, you'll need to manually check the repo files in /etc/yum.repos.d to see which one may not be properly configured, but this indicates a problem with the operating system and Yum tools themselves and not an issue with the cPanel software.

I should have included everything we did, which indicates it's an issue with whatever is going on with yum. I think.

Code:

At this point, I'd poke your hosting provider as something with Yum and the OS isn't allowing the mirror list files to be built. There isn't going to be anything on the cPanel side that will help get this working, and you'll want to be careful to ensure no additional damage happens to the RPM database that can't be repaired.

I'm used to seeing these issues on CentOS 5 systems as they changed how those update, but on CentOS 6 I would be cautious about running any unnecessary commands at this point.

We are the hosting company, and I should have been clearer: All of our Centos 6 and Cloudlinux 7 boxes are all having the same problem with updates. All servers are set for auto-updates, and we've changed nothing.

@jndawson - Hi, I was having the same issues on my local CentOS 6 box in the office. And was searching for similar issues and stumbled across your post.
I signed up to post here. Not sure if it will help you though.

CentOS 6 became EOL on the 30th November, 3 days ago. And all the repos have been archive to https://vault.centos.org/.
I have just edited my /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo file to the below:

Code: 

                      # CentOS-Base.repo # # The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the # update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and # geographically close to the client.  You should use this for CentOS updates # unless you are manually picking other mirrors. # # If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the # remarked out baseurl= line instead. # #  [base] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base #mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os&infra=$infra #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ baseurl=https://vault.centos.org/6.10/os/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6  #released updates [updates] name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates #mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=updates&infra=$infra #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/ baseurl=https://vault.centos.org/6.10/updates/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6  #additional packages that may be useful [extras] name=CentOS-$releasever - Extras #mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=extras&infra=$infra #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/extras/$basearch/ baseurl=https://vault.centos.org/6.10/extras/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6

So while I will have no more security updates for CentOS 6, but also no more errors.

  • #9

So it looks like I have new information on this today :D

We have released an autofixer for this as part of case CPANEL-35078 since the CentOS 6 repositories have been moved to the vault due to that OS becoming end-of-life. This should resolve the issues that you were seeing, @jndawson

However, if you have CentOS 7 or CloudLinux 7 boxes with Yum issues, that would be a different issue. There were some repository issues with CloudLinux over the last 24 hours, but that should also be resolved at this point.

Great - thanks for the update!

Where's the autofixer? We had every server's update fail again last night.

  • #11

If it didn't happen for you automatically, which it may not if there are update issues, you can run this:

Code: 

                          /scripts/autorepair centos6_base_repo_is_no_more

Can you try that and let me know the results?

Yep, that worked - thanks!

  • #20

The script isn't something that will tab-complete on a Linux system, but should be there if you call it. Are you seeing a specific error message when you try and run that script?

I probably got the same error, how can I get the autorepair script? I installed the minimal version of centos 6.5.
