File conflict error during upgrade sandbox to HDP 2.4.2

[#1]

Hello,

I tried to upgrade a freshly deployed 2.4.0 sandbox to 2.4.2 HDP based on these instructions:

http://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/Ambari-2.2.2.0/bk_upgrading_Ambari/content/_preparing_to_up...

I have used RedHat6 HDP 2.4.2 related repo URLs what listed here:

http://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/Ambari-2.2.2.0/bk_Installing_HDP_AMB/content/_hdp_24_reposi...

but I faced with the following error:

2016-05-11 12:41:29,105 - Package Manager failed to install packages. Error: Execution of '/usr/bin/yum -d 0 -e 0 -y install '--disablerepo=HDP-*' --enablerepo=HDP-2.4.2.0,HDP-UTILS-2.4.2.0 zeppelin' returned 1. Transaction Check Error:

There was no error regarding ambari-server upgrade. I have attached the detailed logs.

Could you please help me how to fix this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Can you try $yum clean all and retry. Check if helps.

I just have retried it after "$yum clean all" and a reboot but I got the same error.

The work around for this issue is to try to manually delete zeppelin packages of the current version from the terminal using

yum remove zeppelin_2_4_0*

Then click on to the down arrow of Perform Upgrade button and select Reinstall Packages.

Check if this works. If you want to downgrade your cluster later, delete the zeppelin package of 2.4.2 version and downgrade it to 2.4.0.
