easyapache yum problem, fedora core 1

[gxhosting]

Hello there. I finaly got really frustrated and decided to ask for help.
Cpanel was telling me that I need to update my apache to 4.4.2 from 4.4.1 and also update my frontpage extensions.

I run
Fedora Core 1

I tried by going to scritps/easyapache, and I would get:

Fetching http://layer1.cpanel.net/buildapache.sea (0)[email protected]%...3%...5%...6%...8%...10%...11%...13%...15%...17%...18%...20%...22%...23%...25%...27%...29%...30%...32%...34%...35%...37%...39%...41%...42%...44%...46%...47%...49%...51%...53%...54%...56%...58%...59%...61%...63%...65%...66%...68%...70%...71%...73%...75%...76%...78%...80%...82%...83%...85%...87%...88%...90%...92%...94%...95%...97%...99%...100%......Done

Then I tried:

I also tried:
[~]# whereis yum
yum: /usr/bin/yum /etc/yum.conf /usr/share/yum /usr/share/man/man8/yum.8.gz

Please help me. Thank you

try :

rm -rf /root/.MirrorSearch
/scripts/upcp
/scripts/easyapache

looks like you just have a bad fedora mirror

ttp://mirror.linux.duke.edu/pub/fedora/linux/core/1/

this one works

How would I enter this mirror into the server?

You can download and instal the glibc rpm binary package at: http://rpm.pbone.net/ and search for glibc package comptaible with your OS. You may want to seek professional help.

THanks for all of your help. I was able to fix this problem. If anyone runs into this problem this is what I did. (Thanks dalem for mirror info )

#pico /etc/yum.conf

and I changed yum.conf so it looks like:

[main]
exclude=courier* apache* mod_ssl* httpd* perl mysql* php* spamassassin* kernel* exim*
cachedir=/var/cache/yum
debuglevel=2
logfile=/var/log/yum.log

tolerant=1
exactarch=1

[base]

If you're using FC1 then you should use the FedoraLegacy distribution as the OS is long dead and supported now, though not much, through them (unless the one you've used is a FL mirror).

This error also happens if YUM is hung up from a previous attempt. If you receive this error also do a `ps -ef|grep -i yum` to ensure no previous yum updates are stuck.

If there are previous ones kill the processes and retart easyapache and it sould work fine at that point.
