HI ,


I am getting error while running yum

[root@srmchennai ~]# yum
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

   /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/cElementTree.so: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory

Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.

It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.3.4 (#1, Feb  6 2006, 10:38:45)
[GCC 3.4.5 20051201 (Red Hat 3.4.5-2)]

If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to
the yum faq at:
  http://wiki.linux.duke.edu/YumFaq


[root@srmchennai ~]# ls -l /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/cElementTree.so
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 72309 Aug 13  2006
/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/cElementTree.so

---- > I have set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH also to load the required library

[root@srmchennai ~]# python -V
Python 2.3.4
[root@srmchennai ~]# getconf LONG_BIT
64
[root@srmchennai ~]# uname -a
Linux srmchennai.cdacchn.in 2.6.9-42.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jul 12 23:32:02 EDT
2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[root@srmchennai ~]#


Earlier , I have installed same yum version on the other node , and it is
running fine ,  the  only difference is that , it is installed in 32 bit
kernel mode
[root@xn05 ~]# uname -a
Linux xn05.ctsf.cdac.org.in 2.6.9-42.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jul 12 23:27:17 EDT
2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[root@xn05 ~]#

whether the 32/64 bit kernel is the cause for error ? (or)
How to resolve this error ?

Thanks & Regards ,
shashidhar
