  • 1.  Upgrade from 7.5.1 to 7.5.4 fails yum transaction check for qconsole-2021.6.4-20221129155237.el7.x86_64

    Posted Tue February 28, 2023 10:23 AM

     I am upgrading a 7.5.1 QRadar console to QRadar 7.5.4 and it fails the yum transaction test for 
    Processing Dependency: /usr/bin/whois for package: qconsole-2021.6.4-20221129155237.el7.x86_64

    Any thoughts to resolve.

    Below is a snippet from the patch.log file.

    Hi Corine, how are you?

    I have the same problems months ago and i remember that we remove the yum repositories because for some reason is not using the local repository. We do that with IBM support help.

    Regards!

    Hi Corine, how are you?

    you must delete yum repositories. I had the same problem some moths ago.

    /media/updates/supplementary_scripts/run_yum.py --baseurl /media/updates/repo --clean all

    Regards!

    Hi Felipe,

    I am receiving the similar error : Failed yum transaction test when applying QRadar 7.5.0 patch below. 
    I ran the command: /media/updates/supplementary_scripts/run_yum.py --baseurl /media/updates/repo --clean all but still getting the same error. 
    Is there another way to fix the issue? 
    Thanks

    Ryan

    I met same issues when upgarde to 750P7 from 750P3. I ran the command: /media/updates/supplementary_scripts/run_yum.py --baseurl /media/updates/repo --clean all but still getting the same error.  Do you know how to solve it now?

    Hi Sheng, were you able to solve this problem? I have the same problem to update from 750FP6 to 750FP7.

    Thanks in advance.
