Hi,
I have a machine that recently had some file system corruption. fsck was able repair the file system but I am getting the following error when I try to do yum update:
[Errno 21] Is a directory: '/var/lib/yum/yumdb/e/2f883c08e3b596b66fcc19c6b4d73b11c9aaa43e-e2fsprogs-1.41.12-14.el6_4.2-x86_64/checksum_type'
In searching Google, some suggested renaming the yumdb but that just results in a traceback when I run yum.
There are some files in lost+found but I am not sure what the above file should look like and inode numbers are not useful to me.
Anyone have an idea how to fix this without reloading the machine?
Regards,
You can delete that file without too much problems, according to http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/YumDB
