yum -y install yumex

should be

yum install -y yumex

See if that works.

Has YUM ever woked for you on this box.

OS and version ?

[glennzo]

Try this:

yum clean all
rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*
rpm --rebuilddb
yum -y install yumex

Doesn't matter if you use yum -y install yumex or yum install yumex -y.
