Fedora :: Error: Cannot Find A Valid Baseurl For Repo: Rpmfusion-free-updates
Dec 31, 2009
I keep getting the following error when trying to install anything:
Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/mirrorl...d-11&arch=i386 error was
[Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found
Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: rpmfusion-free-updates
So this tells me the servers are down however if i put the link in FF I don't get 404.I am installing on a new box and I can't get the stuff I need.
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Repository updates is listed more than once in the configuration Determining fastest mirrors YumRepo Error: All mirror URLs are not using ftp, http[s] or file. Eg. 13 is not a valid release or hasnt been released yet/ removing mirrorlist with no valid mirrors: /var/cache/yum/i386/13/base/mirrorlist.txt Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base
I recently did my first installation of centos on a vm. I tried playing around for a while but when I tried doing an update it says Determining fastest mirrors for a while then gave me Could not retrieve mirrorlist [url]
When trying to run 'yum update' or 'yum install' i get the following message:

i am trying to install the GD2 extension for PHP but i am not sure how to do this. i have try the
yum install php-gd Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://apt.sw.be/dries/fedora/fc4/mirrors-rpmforge error was [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: rpmforge
i was installing YUM GROUPINSTALL 'DEVELOPMENT TOOLS' but in start i got an error saying "Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: extras". how can i solve this issue?
I have a server running centos 5 located in a datacenter. I am setting it up as a web server but haven't bothered to move the domain from my current registrar to the server as there are a lot of things I need to get done before that. I am having a problem where I couldn't install httpd. So i tried some of the basic fixes i knew as far as yum clean all and checking that my /etc/resolv.conf was ok. I have the two nameservers I am using listed there but I have no hostname set because I simply dont have the domain transferred or anything like that yet. Is that the reason I am having these issues. I installed the system with a network install fine about a month ago so im not sure why I am having problems now.When i try to ping centos.org I get an unknown host www.centos.org error. I tried changing the resolv.conf to have localhost as the hostname and I still have the same issues. I havent made any changes to anything that would potentially cause this.
My etc/resolv.conf looks like this: search nameserver 12.34.567.8 nameserver 12.34.566.8
Also it seems the problem may have got worse after yum clean-all because before that when I would try 'yum install httpd' it would show the files and filesizes and ask to install, when I would select yes It would give an error showing it could not find the fastestmirror. Now it doesn't give any file size or files or an option to approve the install. It just responds with an error saying it could not retrieve mirrorlist <urlopen error (-3, 'Temporary failure in name resolution' Error Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base
The main Fedora repo file has this entry: baseurl=[url]
I want to know about the "$xxx" dollar sign bits - $releasever $basearch
I know from browsing there and certain mirrors that they contain directories for 13, 12, 11. So does that mean the file entry is just a "general" line but the version installation of yum _knows_ it should put 13 against those 2 entries?
IOW, does the background python script or binary expect to see that actual use of the dollar sign parts in the repo file?
I tried to make a new entry baseurl with a known mirror, making appropriate changes for its directory structure _and_ using the $xxx bits but on trying it out got errors usually about "repond.xml" and/or "gpg-keys".
I omitted them next just using the actual letters - .../releases/13/Everything/i386/os/
I have installed F14 yesterday but i can not install rpmfusion repository, the problem is that i can not access the url [URL] so i cant download the files:
I opened a bug report on this in the RPMFusion bugzilla and other people have asked on the mailing list over there, without an answer.why the Fedora 14 repos are empty? See: [URl] Both i386 and x86_64 are empty in both the free and nonfree trees. Though strangely the updates trees for F14 are populated.
I need to installing updates on fedora in my computer.

when RPMfusion will have the ATI catalyst driver for Fdedora 14 in its repo? If it is going to take a log time then I might just install it from ATI's site, but I'd rather not go through all the trouble if I don't have to.
I am using Fedora 13 and I have one program (wine) that I need to start grabbing for the updates-testing repo instead of the default repositories in order to get newer versions. I think I can figure out how to add that repository, but I need to know if there are any others I need to disable or any other changes I need to make to my system so that I don't confuse my set up with conflicting updates.
Also, is there anything special I need to do to be sure that only that one program is grabbed from the testing repo when I run regular updates?
i'm attempting to know and understand fedora more and i will spend probably the next month pouring through all the forums and documents to answer more of my own questions. but there's quite a bit here, so i'd thought i'd ask some noob questions to get me started a little.
ive installed fedora 14 64bit and chosen only kde as the desktop. i selected an extra 2 repos besides the default, fedora 14 -x86_64 and fedora 14-x86_64 -updates. i believe this kernel is installed: 2.6.35.11-83
1. i can only see the 2 extra repo's as being "checked" in kpackagekit, shouldn't i see the default repo also ?
2. i dont have an applet in the system tray indicating the system is up to date, does fedora have this by default ? also after a clean install i ran yum check-update and yum update but the message sayes: "no packages marked for update". i'm not sure if the system is auto-updated during install or not, but with other distros iv tried there is always atleast a few updates needing to be done after install.
3. is kpackagekit the fedora gui package manager ? i dont see any others.
4. i want to upgrade to nvidia drivers, but i think i am missing a non-free repo or something. when i enter: yum install kmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.x86_64 i get messages stating "no package" i get the same message with yum install nvidia-settings.i also tried this: LANG=C yum --enablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree info akmod-nvidia but it sayes repo not found.
I am unable to download rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm from [URL]. i always get a error 404 -Not found. But i am sure my internet is working fine. I tried from windows, Fedora 14 got the same error message all the time.
I wasn't paying proper attention when adding a repo to yast and need to find the file were the info is saved to delete this. The problem is that whenever i use yast it comes up with an error code saying that it can't find the data for the 'problem' repo. Have tried zypper rm but that comes up with a similar error advising that the data is in a format that was not expected. My thinking is to track the file were the yast repo source details are saved, delete this and then just add the repos that i use back.
Earlier I have no problems when I install opensuse. After installation the network runs and I can run online updating in yast for the system. But since a few version it doesn't work after installation and I don't know why. I think maybe the errors could happen because I have no internet connection. Today I install 11.4 and get this message when I want to run online updates in yast.
There is an error in the repository initialization 'repo-update' [URL] [repo-update URL] Repository is not cached I think this problem stars with 11.1 or 11.2.
Every time I try to install my updates for the past week or so, I get this box: [URL]. If I hit yes, I get this box: [URL], and if I hit cancel, all my updates fail. How can I fix this?
I just learned that warsow 0.6 is out, and went to see if it was available in the ubuntu software center yet, as opposed to going and downloading and installing it manually from the warsow website. The ubuntu repo's still have version 0.5, and at the bottom of the page it says:
"Updates: Canonical does not provide updates for Warsow. Some updates may be provided by the Ubuntu community."
So if I wanted to 'update' this item in the repo's for the better of the community what would that entail?
I try to do a upgrade on my fedora 6 ill 10. But when I try to write yum update or yum upgrade on my server a get this error: yum update Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up update process Setting up repositories Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: extras
I need MatLab for a course at the university, but it's not an open source software as all of you know, so I wanted to know if there are valid freeware alternatives. I was told to use Octave or Scilab if I didn't want to buy the license and so I would like to know what's better in terms of MatLab compatibility and ease of use, if there are any other (and maybe better) alternatives and also if there are free Simulink-like programs.
