Skillz
by chance did you install a DIFFERENT version of python than was in the centos 5 update repo
most python / yum issues are from installing a second version of python the wrong way
You might be onto something. Couple years ago when I first got the box up and running I believe I installed a BF2 server on the box and one of the admin controllers required a version of Python that wasn't installed on the server. IIRC, it had a newer version on the server but the controller required an older version and thus I followed the directions on installing it. If that's the problem, how would I go about on correcting the issue?
