You will first have to stop the running rpm jobs. Seems that the nightly
cronjob running and creating a list of installed packages is still
sitting there. Kill the processes. Then run rpm by hand to see whether
there is a basic problem with rpm. I.e. run "rpm -q httpd". If that
succeeds then try again your "yum update".
