Red Hat Yum not working out of the box?
- by Tucker
I have a server runnning Red Hat Enterprise Linux v5.6 in the cloud. My project constraints do not allow me to use another OS.
When I created the cloud server, I was able to SSH into it and access the shell. I next ran the command:
sudo yum update
But the command failed. About a month ago I created another server with the same machine image and didn't have that error. Why is it failing now? The following is the terminal output
sudo yum update
Loaded plugins: security
Repository rhel-server is listed more than once in the configuration
