Failed to update kernel

[bogdan.sh]

I am out of ideas, seems there is no other option but create a support ticket so our team can check it in place. Could you please do this? https://cloudlinux.zendesk.com/hc/en...new?product=cl

[james17]

nothing. here is the full yum.conf:

[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/yum.conf
[main]
cachedir=/var/cache/yum/$basearch/$releasever
keepcache=0
debuglevel=2
logfile=/var/log/yum.log
exactarch=1
obsoletes=1
gpgcheck=1
plugins=1
installonly_limit=3

#  This is the default, if you make this bigger yum won't see if the metadata
# is newer on the remote and so you'll "gain" the bandwidth of not having to
# download the new metadata and "pay" for it by yum not having correct
# information.
#  It is esp. important, to have correct metadata, for distributions like
# Fedora which don't keep old packages around. If you don't like this checking
# interupting your command line usage, it's much better to have something
# manually check the metadata once an hour (yum-updatesd will do this).
# metadata_expire=90m

# PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo
# in /etc/yum.repos.d​

[bogdan.sh]

That's strange, okay, what is in excludes?

grep -i exclude /etc/yum.conf

Ah right, thanks for correction about grep.

I still consider the outdated cloudlinux-release is the core of the issue since it has to be cloudlinux-release-7.9-2.3

I believe you meant with grep 😉

[root@localhost ~]# rpm -qa | grep cloudlinux-release
cloudlinux-release-7.9-1.el7.x86_64​

As I wrote in the first post:

So the problem is I'm missing the latest `initscripts` package which is a dependency.
I tried searching a newer `initcripts` and couldn't find in any repo 😢

I was manueally searching all of https://repo.cloudlinux.com/cloudlinux/ for a newer initscripts and I couldn't find a newer version

[bogdan.sh]

Please show the output of:

rpm -qa | cloudlinux-release

[bogdan.sh]

Was it successful? Could you please run it again, and then the kernel update command and all the messages from yum?

[james17]

Thank you for the quick response!
I've already ran this command, and still no results..

[bogdan.sh]

Hello,

I suppose you have to update the cloudlinux-release package, maybe to run the update command multiple times, please do this:

yum update cloudlinux-release

[james17]

Hey everyone,

I have a CloudLinux 7 server and I'm trying to update my kernel package to the latest patch available for CloudLinux 7: kernel-3.10.0-962.3.2.lve1.5.85.el7.x86_64
I'm having the following issue:

Error: Package: 1:kernel-3.10.0-962.3.2.lve1.5.85.el7.x86_64 (cloudlinux-updates-testing)
Requires: initscripts >= 9.49.53-2.el7_9.cloudlinux.3
Installed: initscripts-9.49.53-1.el7.x86_64 (@anaconda/7.9)
initscripts = 9.49.53-1.el7

So the problem is I'm missing the latest `initscripts` package which is a dependency.
I tried searching a newer `initcripts` and couldn't find in any repo 😢

Any help would be much appreciated
Thank you!
