downdogWoof 0 Posted September 29, 2004 Hi All, what is this..? Was installing/up[censored] via YUM, and got this, Segmentation fault after only 37/227 also, what is this, warning: /etc/mail/submit.cf created as /etc/mail/submit.cf.rpmnew P.S. This is what came up after the segmentation error, [root@RH9Desktop superwasp]# Is it waiting for me to do something..? Cheers. Share this post Link to post
martouf 0 Posted October 9, 2004 the segmentation fault happened after the 37th of 227 things on the list of what YUM was doing.. perhaps caused by a communication channel error. Can you restart the YUM update? What you saw after the segmentation fault is a command shell prompt. The shell is waiting for you to type in a command (or you may type 'exit' to dismiss the shell window). The warning you received is because during the update, YUM found there already was a modified submit.cf file (modified as compared to the database YUM uses). Instead of blindly overwriting your existing submit.cf file (in case there's something unique and special about your setup), YUM has placed the new/updated version of submit.cf in the file submit.cf.rpmnew. You're now expected to compare submit.cf.rpmnew and submit.cf and reconcile the differences manually. Share this post Link to post
