[SOLVED] Not using downloaded repomd.xml because it is older than what we have

Troubleshooting

Rockstor is driving me crazy today with an email every hour sounding like this:

/etc/cron.hourly/0yum-hourly.cron:

Not using downloaded repomd.xml because it is older than what we have:
Current : Sun May 14 23:27:47 2017
Downloaded: Sat May 13 04:08:57 2017

How do I fix / stop this?

Hi @KarstenV,
you can try a yum clean all then perform updates again

Thanks.

The error seemed to fix itself during the day, not receiving hourly mails anymore :slight_smile:

But I’ll try to remember your helpfull post if the problem shows up again.

Getting the same, so will try the above. But can we build a process to fix this without the operator going to the shell? I don’t think messing with the OS is safe for some users.
