Hi, Just a quick note to see if anyone else noted the changes in yum in the updates. I've disabled thhe new format until i can verify if it works? As i rebuilt yumex from Scientific Linux (RHEL SRPM rebuild) and i have not enabled centosplus i don't wanna mess my system. I don't believe you can browse the new mirrors. __________________________________________________ Do You

Currently the default yum configuration references mirror.centos.org. When yum looks up the IP address it finds several but it will only try one and fail if that server is down or does not have the headers for whatever reason. If yum were to reference a mirrorlist it would skip servers that fail and keep trying them all until it finds one that works or exhausts all the mirrors. Centos would

Hi, It seems that the new update system does not consider the proxy option set yum.conf. After installing centos-yumconf-4-4.4.noarch.rpm together with the new yum packages, I was no longer able to use yum. In my case HTTP access is allowed only through a proxy. The proxy URL is configured in yum.conf. If I set the environment variable http_proxy from the shell I start yum, everything

If you block port 81 outbound, centos-yumconf-4-4.4.noarch.rpm will cause your yum to stop working for CentOS-4. We were serving mirrorlists on port 81 for our new update system, but since this caused some users problems, we are now serving mirrorlists on both port 80 and 81. centos-yumconf-4-4.5.noarch.rpm has released to change the default configuration to port 80 for mirrorlist retrieval.

Hi, >From CentOS 4.3, I saw the yum repository setting /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo is something like: -------------------- mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os -------------------- Is that possible I can query the result by lynx ? I have a script to get the URL and path in old yum repository style, but broken in this. When I use

Hi, In the past my mirrorlist for SCL, http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=x86_64&repo=SCL has worked without any issues. Recently http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=x86_64&repo=SCL redirects to http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/scl/x86_64/ which leads to 404, instead it should be http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/SCL/x86_64/ Is this a change or bug. Thanks,

Hi Guys Apologies in advance for the noise. I am interested in setting up my OWN mirrorlist like http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=7&arch=x86_64&repo=os&infra=stock where it pulls a few local mirrors, but mine would be statically set with 3 or 4 different location URL's Basically my plan here is, if the closest mirror I operate cannot be reached, it will try another

Hi, We're using CentOS on various servers in Japan. Recently, I found that mirrorlist.centos.org returns servers in China. It makes "yum update" slow. This problem occurs on "update" repo. Our tries and results are follows: ## "os" repository $ curl "http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6.5&arch=x86_64&repo=os"

I have just tried to update to 4.9 a system that was installed from a 4.8 local repo. Because 4.9 has been moved to vault, as described by Johnny in http://www.linux-archive.org/centos/638644-centos4-rhel4-upstream-effective-eol.html, the mirrorlist file basically contains invalid information. http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=4.9&arch=i386&repo=os To avoid the faff of having to edit

Is mirrorlist.centos.org out of the air? because there is no A record for it. Which causes yum to fail.
