similar to: Create a Yum repository for CentOS 5?

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 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 keep a local copy of the yum repository using rsync every night. Commands like "yum update" still work, but lately I've been getting the following error: # yum grouplist Setting up Group Process Setting up repositories Error: Caching enabled and local cache: //var/cache/yum/base/ yumgroups.xml does not match checksum My nightly rsync cron job doesn't update

I just tried an install from my local repo (boot from CD 1, use http method), and it failed right after entering the root password setting with: Unable to read group information from repositories. This is a problem with the generation of your install tree. Reboot So now what? Is there something I can just extract from the isos? (remember I did that rsync). Is this caused by running

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

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]

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

I know of a few techniques for minimizing server bandwidth when bittorent is not an option. 1) If you have the beta isos, you can rename them as centos 5 isos and then rsync from a mirror that allows rsync (such as kernel.org). Then only changes from beta to centos 5 plus some overhead is downloaded. I suppose you could use this technique with bittorrent too. 2) Instead of downloading both cd

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 need to support 3.9 for another while and thought I would set up a local repo with base and updates merged into one. How can I update repodata? I don't see createrepo in 3.9. --------------------------------------------------------------- This message and any attachments may contain Cypress (or its subsidiaries) confidential information.

Hallo, Im using createrepo. The problem is that changes in the repo are not availiable via yum on my system.

so this may be an odd question, but my google fu seems to be failing me. I've created a local mirror of centos 5 & 6 with various instructions across the net, it seems to be functional, syncs on a regular basis,and is generally usable (I've built machines with kickstart/netboot from it and they seem generally workable). my difficulty comes up when I try to use the local mirror for

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

Not sure if I'm overlooking this somehow but is there a yumgroups.xml file for the [base] repository in CentOS 5? I've checked a few mirrors and didn't see it and a `yum grouplist` with only the base, updates, and extras repositories enabled looks like this: Setting up Group Process Setting up repositories base 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00

Hello, Does anyone have an up-to-date page describing, step by step, how to make a customized CentOS5 DVD? I noticed that CentOS5 already comes with ~240MB of updates. So for starters, I'd like to create a new DVD with all the current updates. (And I have other custom scripts I need to install on top of that). I've googled around and tried various suggestions on the net:

I have created a local repo for CentOS 6 x86_64.
