      But you cannot update now either. So you can disable one, try it, put it back if not the one.

      This is true, but if I can't update currently, then the issue is with an upstream repo. It's not critical to update today for me. I was just checking to see if anyone else has seen this and worked with the issue.

      Comment out each repo one by one and try update. That's about all you can do

        Install yum-cron, set it up to email you when updates are installed and stop worrying about updates.

          That doesn't fix a broken repo, you will still get errors

            Commented each repo one by one in /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo and tried again with no change.

            Since there are all of these CentOS-Base.repo CentOS-Debuginfo.repo CentOS-Media.repo CentOS-Vault.repo epel-testing.repo ius.repo remi-glpi91.repo remi-glpi93.repo remi-modular.repo remi-php70.repo remi-php72.repo remi.repo CentOS-CR.repo CentOS-fasttrack.repo CentOS-Sources.repo epel.repo ius-archive.repo ius-testing.repo remi-glpi92.repo remi-glpi94.repo remi-php54.repo remi-php71.repo remi-php73.repo remi-safe.repo

            I'm just gonna wait till later on and see if this is resolved upstream.

              There can be more than one file in that directory. Make sure there are no other files

                @IRJ In /etc/yum.repos.d there are all of these.

                CentOS-Base.repo CentOS-Debuginfo.repo CentOS-Media.repo CentOS-Vault.repo epel-testing.repo ius.repo remi-glpi91.repo remi-glpi93.repo remi-modular.repo remi-php70.repo remi-php72.repo remi.repo CentOS-CR.repo CentOS-fasttrack.repo CentOS-Sources.repo epel.repo ius-archive.repo ius-testing.repo remi-glpi92.repo remi-glpi94.repo remi-php54.repo remi-php71.repo remi-php73.repo remi-safe.repo

                And I'm not interesting with going through and commenting each and every one of these, one by one to find out which is broken.

                    yum clean all && rm -rf /var/cache/yum/* && yum update

                    See if that helps.

                          I also think you may be looking at the wrong file.

                          In Ubuntu it is located here

                          /etc/apt/sources.list

                          You can also add sources by file here

                          /etc/apt/sources.list.d/

                              @IRJ Rebooting resolved it, at least now updates are able to be run.

                                That doesnt make much sense to me. Did you try to update after cleaning cache?

                                  @IRJ He couldn't clean it as visible in that screen. There was probably a zombie yum process somewhere locking cache files.

                                    @IRJ yeah, just restarting resolved it.

                                    Not sure why or what was locked.

                                    PS I just reran the cleanup process with sudo for all 3, so we shall see. But since updates installed previously there is nothing outstanding.

                                      He's using Centos, and location was correct. Both distros store config files in slightly different locations.
