Can yopu attach that? Or at least the last few lines should make it obvious what has happened. Created attachment 323352 [details]
Trace produced when entered root password after clicking on update available notifier box
I got this crash this morning while trying to apply a routine RedHat update
to my EL 5.2 SMP x86_64 system. It appears to fit this existing bug report.
This process has always worked routinely until today.
The attachment was generated by the system with a request to file it at
bugzilla, so here it is. I also have a core file which I will save and will
provide upon request. Due to its large size, it may be necessary for you
to acquire it from me via our University large file server--I will send
instructions and a password on request--but please provide an email where
these instructions should be sent, as it is a scripted process that I cannot
modify.

Sorry, I do not have a core dump file--the one mentioned in Comment #2 was from some other program. Please disregard that part of my comment. George Reeke Rockefeller University The error is: TypeError: Parsing primary.xml error: Extra content at the end of the document ...can you show the data that's at the end of /var/cache/yum/*/primary.xml.gz ... also can you show what repos you have available (yum repolist)? Created attachment 323372 [details]
Requested ending of primary.xml.gz file
You did not say how much of primary.xml.gz you would like to see--I
arbitrarily sent last 1000 lines.
The output of the command 'yum repolist' is as follows:
Loading "rhnplugin" plugin
repo id repo name status
rhel-x86_64-server-5 None enabled

With today's (Nov. 13, 2008) RedHat updates, it "just worked". I didn't change anything except installed new 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5 kernel yesterday (when the pup notifier failed, I did a "yum update" and the update worked normally). So maybe that kernel change fixed it, but that seems unlikely. I will enter another comment if this fails again. Sorry I can no longer reproduce this issue for you.
