CentOS - Aug 2013 - yum update after update from 6.3 to 6.4 - problems with epel repository.

Hi All.

I've updated my system from 6.3 to 6.4. In my /etc/yum.repos.depel.repo I
have:
[epel]
name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux - $basearch
#baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/$basearch
mirrorlisthttp://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=epel-6&arch=$basearch
failovermethod=priority
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5
#gpgkey=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-5
exclude=mongodb*
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

Yum variables are ok:
# python -c 'import yum, pprint; yb = yum.YumBase();
pprint.pprint(yb.conf.yumvar, width=1)'
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
{'arch': 'ia32e',
 'basearch': 'x86_64',
 'releasever': '6',
 'uuid': 'd42ce92e-d28b-4637-8365-2cf02892ee58'}

But yum exits with error:
# yum --disablerepo='*' --enablerepo='epel' search iotop
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: epel

I've tried to open
http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=epel-6&arch=x86_64
but got

# Bad Request 2960
# {'repo': u'epel-6', 'IP': IP('195.8.99.234'),
'client_ip':
u'195.8.99.234', 'metalink': False, 'arch':
u'x86_64'}

Am I doing something wrong? Any clues?
Best regards,
Rafal.

Have you tried a `yum clean all`

Also the base arch is your code base, x86_64 etc.

Try commenting out the mirrorlist= and hit the baseurl= directly.

baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/$basearch
#mirrorlist=http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=epel-6&arch=$basearch


If you change this you will have to do a?`yum clean all`
