Is there anyway of sorting this out please?

Dang, I thought I’d fixed this problem.

Can you try again? I think it’s fixed for real, now.

You’ll need to do yum clean all before running install.sh.

Ah thanks ever so much Joe and yeah I have a like setup guide for it (so when installing and setting it all up I don’t forget anything) so will put to clear yum then before installing.

Will run it in a moment and thanks ever so much!

Take care

Ordinarily, yum clean all is not needed on a fresh OS. This is just for re-trying an install when there are repo issues.
