The last thing I did was yum update and I get problems.. removing the # gave me a different one... This is on a fedora 7 system

[root@localhost user01]# yum check-update

Also, after the yum update, I also can't connect to the public time server. Internet is fine obviously.

Anyone know anything?

Mb Please?

Try diable IPV6 in the network config and diable ivp6 completely by adding

alias net-pf-10 off
alias ipv6 off

to /etc/modprobe.conf

Oh thanks but solved it a while ago by removing the livna repo, and now everything is fine!

I also facing this problem under CentOS but then I type this syntax in terminal, my office ran a proxy server :

export HTTP_PROXY=http://192.168.x.x:8080

and voila..it works
hope can help...

I had the same problem and swtiching from static IP to DHCP worked..

Thanks!

It picks up from the local system instead of getting it from internet, if you change "enabled" option to "0"

I got the same problem but resolved by following the [demirsha] instruction below.
The only two files I changed are:

fedora-core.repo
fedora-updates.repo

Very simple,
All this comenting out won't help you.

Redhat has disabled support for FC1 thru FC7

Check out the parent directory that yum is trying to access - NO FC6

(h t t p colon slash slash ) download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/updates/


in the words of Curtis Mayfield I think you have to move on up.

Hi,
I have the same problem. I found solution to replace baseurl on repos files at /etc/yum.repos.d/ ... with the line follow

baseurl=http://archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/core/$releasever/$basearch/os/

my yum works smoothlly after do the change.

it's better you upgrade your fedora version to the latest.

replace http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...ata/repomd.xml with the following:

http://archives.fedoraproject.org/pu...ata/repomd.xml

Thanks UMTopSpinC7

Works perfect for me.

I just had this issue. I resolved it by just changing my IP from static to DHCP. So probably some small glitch in network configurations??

Thanks,
