Hey, Dan. Sorry, but bug 136754 is about problems on 86-64 machines. Mine is an i386-only problem. Also I tried what was described in bug 136754 but it did not work. So I am requesting another look at this one. Thanks, David Here's what was suggested to place into /etc/yum.conf # cat /etc/yum.conf [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log pkgpolicy=newest distroverpkg=redhat-release tolerant=1 exactarch=1 retries=20 [base] name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Base baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/$releasever/$basearch/ [updates] name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Updates baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/$releasever/$basearch/ Here's what happened: # yum update openoffice.org Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) Server: Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Base retrygrab() failed for: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/headers/header.info Executing failover method failover: out of servers to try Error getting file http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/headers/header.info [Errno 4] IOError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found What do we try next?
Restored yum.conf to as-installed version, not special version show previously, and was able to update openoffice.org manually in two sessions: yum update openoffice.org yum update openoffice.org-i18n Lesson learned: if up2date chokes, try yum update Peace, David
