Hi there :) Just to say i had problem using yum after the first update. here what i get : [root@ws044 ~]# yum update Loading "installonlyn" plugin Existing lock /var/run/yum.pid: another copy is running. Aborting. [root@ws044 ~]#
Then i edited yum.pid and removed the first line, and save and it works... But this comes each time :( ---------> any solution please ?
Thx

Try restarting yum-updatesd [service restart yum-updatesd] as root. I suspect that you edited/changed/installed some repo data while it was running.

Just to add that EACH time i have to restart yum-updatesd (service yum-updatesd restart), if i want to run "yum update", even after login or reboot ... Does it come from yum or something else ? Is there somethink to do to stop this ?

If you are on FC6test1, from what others have said, you may need to disable yum-updatesd service. eg using system-config-services.
If the lock file doesn't go away after stopping and disabling the above you probably need to manually remove the lock file.
