If you are having trouble and can't run a yum update yourself, you need to troubleshoot your networking and dns.

i beleive i ve found the issue,
if you guys using IPV6 on the network settings, make sure you disable it.
somehow its perefer to use IPV6.
ive done that and the issue is gone somehow.

I am getting a different error message since my recently perfomed upgrade hourly:
Code: Select all
/etc/cron.hourly/0yum-hourly.cron:
Traceback (most recent call last):

How to solve this as it is not related to DNS or networking?

What did you do to cause this? IT didn't just happen on it's own. Your probably better off reinstalling eFa.

Initally I was using only ClamAV.
If I run yum manually the error was solved by creating a symlink, but unfortunatly for cron it is not vailid.

I use sophos av without problems. Whats the link to the directions you followed? I'll look and see if maybe I can reverse engineer where it went wrong.

Seems you tried setting up sophosavi at some point as well.
you need to delete
from /etc/ld.so.conf
then run

You are right!
I was trying according this post to use sophosavi instead of sophos:
viewtopic.php?f=14&t=3506&p=13954&hilit=savi#p13939
but I could not finish it... I do not remember why?
Two weeks of holiday and everycthing is gone...
I am getting too old for things like that...

If someone tries to use sophosavi instead of sophos av he would run in this problem again.
I wonder if a working solution for that usecase is also known?

I am also experiencing this problem. In addition, during the night, EFA sends the quarantine report randomly not at the same time, beyond what is specified in the scheduled time.
IPV6 is disabled.

I am also having this issue. I think it might have something to do with some bad "Fedora project" mirrors that are being referenced in the Recursive DNS lookup.
How do I run an update on the local Fedora mirrors cache?
Am I think about this correctly?
Note the middle ping failure.

I do have the same issue, but fix with the following method
1. Disable IPv6
2. Check DNS setting.
After that, all done at my end with this solution.
