I am attempting to update my Fedora Core 2 VPS using yum am I am receiving the following error:
memory alloc (XXXXX bytes) returned null.

Googling that showed a number of different issues. Everything from a bad install of Yum to not enough disk space.

I have reinstalled YUM, I have plenty of disk space, I tried rpm --rebuilddb, removing various repositories from the yum.conf and I still get the error, does anyone have any ideas on resolving this?

I get this error with just the Powervps repo's and with just the Fedoralegacy repos.

Nevermind, I am an idiot. There just was not enough memory to do it so once I stopped mysqld first it ran successfully.
