This might no be the right place to ask this so I apologise if it isn't. My question is very probably a dumb qustion, but I don't know the answer. Okay here goes: What does this mean? I know it's a system email about updates, but at first it used to do the updates and the message would be different, now it doesn't do any of the updates at all and everyday the message is the same.

Thanks


looks like its crashing

 

try this

 



Code:
yum clean all




 

and then

 



Code:
yum update




thanks, that seems to have worked
