Hello Experts,
I would like to create a server which can act as a YUM repository of Oracle Linux 6.5 and CentOS 6.5. Also I would like other servers to access this repo via http. I am stucked here to understand how I can bring all "RPMs" in to "/repo/OracleLinux/OEL6/current/x86_64" and always keep it updated. I would appreciate any help on this.
Thanks In Advance
Hello again,
i need to understand once for all the syntax of files.repo.
When i need a repository i create under /etc/yum.repos.d/ the repository file
goofy.repo
with this syntax
[repository_name]
[goofy]
baseurl=ftp:///mydirectory/myrepodir
gpgcheck=0
---
Myrepodir contains all the *.rpm files i need
when i exit and save i get anytime this error
Code:
ftp:///mydirectory/myrepodir/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] PYCURL ERROR 6 - ""
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: repobase. Please verify its path and try again
What am i wrong for? How can i just say to my rhel/centos system
"Ehy, for rpm look inside /mydirectory/myrepo" ?
Thanks
Hi Linux Enthusiast..
Here is what i want to do..
I am currently using RHEL6 and I want to use rpmfind.net's repository for the software installtions.
But I really got very confused when i came to configure *.repo file for it ( for rpmfind.net's repository).
Can anybody please tell me what the baseurl string(or value) shuild be used for it in *.repo file.
Hello
I try to install the epel repository so I can install ejabberd.
I do not have epel, it seems :
Code:
[root@serv src]# ls /etc/yum.repos.d/
CentOS-Base.repo CentOS-Debuginfo.repo CentOS-fasttrack.repo CentOS-Media.repo CentOS-Vault.repo n2.repo
So I try to install epel :
Code:
[root@serv src]# rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
Retrieving http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100]
package epel-release-6-8.noarch is already installed
But when I try to install ejabberd :
Code:
[root@serv src]# yum install ejabberd
Loaded plugins: downloadonly, fastestmirror
Setting up Install Process

No package ejabberd available.
Error: Nothing to do
Something is wrong with epel.
"yum update" command is not working.
IP information and relevant details below:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the error message :
yum update
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks
One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown),
and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this:
1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.
2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working
upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer
distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the
packages for the previous distribution release still work).
3. Disable the repository, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then
just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it again or use
--enablerepo for temporary usage:
yum-config-manager --disable <repoid>
4. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable.
Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,
so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much
slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice
compromise:
yum-config-manager --save --setopt=<repoid>.skip_if_unavailable=true
Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base/7/x86_64

Steps taken so far :
1. Change to google DNS -->
2. Edited the CentOS-Base.repo file -->
3. Restarted network services -->
Literally I had search all over the place, till now i could not fix the issue.
Appreciate if someone come forward and help me to rectify this issue.
Hi, I'm pretty new to Linux.
I'm currently working on a project in my Linux Administration class, but have run into a bit of a bump.
I'm tasked with booting Linux (currently using CentOS 7) through the GRUB prompt. I've loaded the kernel, but I'm having an issue with the initrd.
I've tried both of these commands:
"linux /boot/initrd-plymouth.img"
"linux /boot/initramfs-3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64.img"
Neither of these commands have worked. It only returns the message "invalid magic number" for both of the commands. Any ideas on how I can fix this?
Thanks for any help in advance. It should help me understand Linux better!

Hi All,
Can "CentOS Linux release 7.0.1406 (Core)" 64 bit be used for server to provide services such as web, ftp, mail etc. I meant to say whether it is stable and can be used for server. Because the previous versions was just as "CentOS release 5.10, CentOS release 6.2, CentOS release 6.4" and so on. Thanks for your kind reply.
Hi.
I am completely new in Linux and I'm trying to learn as much as I can while doing my job.
I am following directions from a wi-fi card vendor. In it, they require to download Fedora 13 to the laptop, which I have already done so. uname -a displays:
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.33.3-85.fc13.i868.PAE #1.
The directions ask to update the kernel with "yum install kernel-PAE". While connected to the internet, when I type that, the following error comes up:
Loaded plugin : presto, refresh-packagekit
Error: cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora
Please verify its path and try again
What does it mean and what file do I need to update with the right path? Please, let me know what other information you need.
Thank you very much
