Name of my machine where I am trying to set repository is : pocsys.jf.intel.com I have created /var/www/html/yum-repository/install/headers , /var/www/html/yum-repository/install/RPMS and /var/www/html/yum-repository/update/headers , /var/www/html/yum-repository/update/RPMS directories. Header (.hdr file) are located under /var/www/html/yum-repository/install/headers and /var/www/html/yum-repository/update/headers directories and similarly RPMS are available under RPMS directories. My current yum.conf file contents are : [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log pkgpolicy=newest distroverpkg=redhat-release tolerant=1 exactarch=1 obsoletes=1 # PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo # in /etc/yum.repos.d [base] name=Education Stack component Install baseurl=http://pocsys.jf.intel.com/yum-repository/install/ [updates] name=Education Stack component Update baseurl=http://pocsys.jf.intel.com/yum-repository/update/ And I am executing command like this : # Yum -c yum.conf install mysql-server It gives following messages and errors : Setting up Install Process Setting up repos http://pocsys.jf.intel.com/yum-repository/install/repodata/repomd.xml : {Errorno 4} IO Error 404 : Not Found Trying other mirro. Cannnot open /read repomd.xml file for repostories: base Failure: repodata/repomd.xml from base: {Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. I checked /var/www/html/yum-repository/install directory. There is no 'repodata' directory available. My question is who needs to create that directory 'repodata' and that file repomd.xml. Do I need to create it or yum should automatically create it for me. If I need it create it, is there any tool/example available about how to do this. Waiting for your response.
