similar to: [OT] Concept: RepoDELTA (simple createrepo hack)

I've setup a local yum repository for about 25 workstations and I'm using rsync from a local mirror. Do I need to create my own XML headers, i.e. the 'repodata' directory, or since I'm syncing the whole updates directory can I use the 'repodata' directory from the mirror? I also have a question on using createrepo. The directory layout is: ~/updates/

Hi, I tried to reproduce the issue but without success, everything seems to be working fine (I've copied repodata directory created by the reposync on Centos7 machine to RHEL8 server to /tmp/pg12repo directory): RHEL8 # dnf search postgresql12 --repofrompath=a,/tmp/pg12repo --repoid=a Added a repo from /tmp/pg12repo a 204 MB/s | 784 kB 00:00 ==================================== Name

Hi List, I have been searching for the correct createrepo command to make a 6.4 respin. We have been doing this with previous versions using createrepo -u "media://$discinfo" -g ${DIR}/my_kickstart${VER}/comps.xml . Which had worked fine until now.

I wanted to point out this functionality in case others want to test it: http://centosnow.blogspot.com/2014/03/createrepo-and-parallel-delta-rpms-on.html For the record, this cuts down the metadata generation to 1/4 of the original time on my test platform.

google for "centos error performing checksum" refers to createrepo but of course "yum install createrepo" also fails and the instructions appear to be overkill. Is there a "simple" soultion? here's the result of yum update: # yum -v update Loading "fastestmirror" plugin Config time: 0.118 Yum Version: 3.2.22 Setting up Package Sacks Loading mirror

Hi folks, I've just finished rsyncing/downloading/jigdoizing the entire i386/x86_64 CentOS 4.2 distribution. If anyone is interested go to http://mirror.tcs.ii.uj.edu.pl/jigdo/ You'll need to edit the .jigdo file by hand to change the server section [Servers] CentOS42=file:/opt/mirrors/centos/4.2/ to point to a local mirror (file, http or ftp), ie. to use kernel.org: [Servers]

Should I be concerned?

This week I set up a local mirror for a few dists, including Centos 4.0 and 4.2, and Fedora Core 3 and 4. I'm using a script called yum-pull. For the most part I really like the script, it automates the setup of your mirrors and tries a bunch of different mirrors when it goes out to get updates, if it fails on one it tries another. It uses the usual suspects, createrepo and repoview, among

I run a local repo for our company's packages. Since yesterday we have problems with creating the repo files. When i run "createrepo --update -s sha rpmdir" i get the folowing error: File "/usr/share/createrepo/genpkgmetadata.py", line 249, in ? main(sys.argv[1:]) File "/usr/share/createrepo/genpkgmetadata.py", line 223, in main mdgen.doPkgMetadata()

Hi, I'm trying to mirror the PostgreSQL12 RHEL8 repo: https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/12/redhat/rhel-8-x86_64/ [root at cobbler yum.repos.d]# cat pgdg-12-centos8.repo # PGDG Red Hat Enterprise Linux / CentOS stable repositories: [pgdg12-rhel8] name=PostgreSQL 12 for RHEL/CentOS $releasever - $basearch

Thanks for consideration I use this command for update my repo rsync -avzH --delete-after centos.mirror.angkasa.id::centos /home/centos/ --log-file=/var/log/rsync/rsync.log.$(date +%Y%m%d%H%m%S) Best Regard Mohsen On Mon, Jul 10, 2017 at 11:32 PM, Marcelo Roccasalva < marcelo-centos at irrigacion.gov.ar> wrote: > On Mon, Jul 10, 2017 at 3:49 PM, mohsen Abbaspour >

I'm trying to set up a custom rpm respository for some in-house software, and configure a number of CentOS 5 clients so that they may install and update the software in question from the location in question. I think I've mostly figured out how to do this - I've successfully installed software on one of the clients via "yum install <my package>" after adding an

I installed the RHEL 7 beta here to test while waiting for CentOS 7 to arrive. On noticing that yum didn't work, I decided to set up a local mirror. I rsync'd ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/rhel/beta/7/x86_64/os/Packages/ to a local web server here, then regenerated the repodata directory with createrepo. Now yum works fine, for the most part.
