Amongst other things, do you even have the CentOS-Base.repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d folder? In the code you have pasted, you have moved the file to *.bak.

It also seems like you might have modified the repo file somehow. Please post the contents.

CentOS-Base.repo restored it back and deleted the CentOS-Base.repo.bak

o just removed yum with yum -y remove yum-fastestmirror

Try updating with that linuxtech repo disabled unless you are trying to update some package specifically installed from that repository.

[madjtorr]

same error

[nonamedotc]

Well, the only other suggestion I have is this

su -
[root password]
cd /var/lib/rpm
rm -f __db*
rpm --rebuilddb

[madjtorr]

fixed, thanks, it was a file i created

Create the repository config file /etc/yum.repos.d/linuxtech.repo:
[linuxtech]
name=LinuxTECH
baseurl=http://pkgrepo.linuxtech.net/el6/release/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://pkgrepo.linuxtech.net/el6/release/RPM-GPG-KEY-LinuxTECH.NET
Install agrep rpm package:
# yum install agrep

because of that

You could perhaps mark this thread solved then. Cheers.

[marko]

isn't it also a bad idea to have epel and epel-testing activated at the same time, I'd think there'd be version clashes

[madjtorr]

sum1 close this, its solved
