@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?

[marcinozga]

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

[DustinB3403]

@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.

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/

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