Software :: Retrieve Vanished Packet(s) From DVD-repository?
Apr 27, 2011
I upgraded to openSuSE 11.4 using the DVD. 11.3 used KNetworkManager which is broken in 11.4 and Novell now urges people to use plasmoid-networkmanagement. This is contained on the DVD, I have definitely seen it in YAST when I checked whether KNetworkManager is installed (and it is listed in [URL]
Consequently I now wanted to install the plasmoid-networkmanagement, but it is gone: neither YAST nor zypper list it anymore I dug around in all search modi but it is never listed -- seemingly gone for good from the DVD.
Before this I installed Gnome (and some other goodies) and tried the network management here (didn't work either). I then asked LQ [URL] and did some google-ing. So now I know that I should use the plasmoid-networkmanagement -- which I can't reach anymore.
I deleted the DVD-repository and added it again, using first YAST, then zypper.
I have Fedora 13 in a VPS. I cannot work with yum. I got this error: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try # yum list Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. verify its path and try again.
I am trying to configure DNS on my CentOS 5. When i am trying to install BIND using YUM, i am getting the following error.
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/addons/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 12] Ti meout: <urlopen error timed out> Trying other mirror.Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: addons. Pl ease verify its path and try again. I am able to ping from Linux to windows OS. But when iam trying to do
I installed Fedora 13 in my new system from DVD image. Now I want to update all repositories. I coul'nt update. error message as below: Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. verify its path and try again
I installed FC10, but do not find xfig (command not found)..then I do password:xxxxxxx, and then do the following $yum install xfig, and I get the following error Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit [URL].. [Errno 14] HTTP Error 401: Unauthorized Trying other mirror. Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: adobe-linux-i386.
yum is completely broken. I cannot install or update any software. yum is always throwing:
Code: Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/mirrorlist?repo=free-fedora-12&arch=x86_64 error was 14: PYCURL ERROR 7 - "" Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: rpmfusion-free. Please verify its path and try again I have tried globally to disable the gpg check as stated in other threads. I have no proxies or such in yum.conf or in my bashrc. If I manually click on the link it will resolve in firefox so I am sure it is not my net connection per se, it seems yum or curl is adding a : to the end of the url thats why it wont resolve properly.
I have done a yum clean all , which didnt really help either. reinstalling the rpmfusion repos isnt an option either as I start getting curl errors in the terminal. I am really at a loss here and am completely out of ideas as I cant install any updates or software , at first I thought the repositories were having problems with the holidays but this has been going on for 4 days now. /var/log/messages isnt showing anything either.
I updated my up to date F12 to F13. I have what must be a 640X480 display with no way to change it. I get an error:
"Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: pgdg90. Please verify its path and try again" on all Yum commands so no yum installs are possible. I don't have the /usr/bin/GLX command So theAIGLX doesn't work.
I just did a fresh install of F14 using a Live USB. I can't do a yum update, I'm getting Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora.I've done a yum clean all and I've tried coping the .repos from another F14 system that's working fine.
While installing CodeLite on F13,there is some error:
[root@localhost ~]# yum install codelite Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit Could not retrieve mirrorlist HTTP Error 404 : mirroslist Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: rpmfusion-free. Please verify its path and try again
what i should do to resolve this question?(the computer can conntect to network,because I'm in China?) I have googling this question,but those methods didn't work
I recently registered a Red Hat 5 machine. It registered ok and was able to do a yum update. Now, yum update gives this error:
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security There was an error communicating with RHN. RHN support will be disabled. Error communicating with server. The message was:
Temporary failure in name resolution Could not retrieve mirrorlist <red hat mirror url here>error was [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error (-3, 'Temporary failure in name resolution')> [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error (-3, 'Temporary failure in name resolution')> Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: rpmforge. Please verify its path and try again I can ssh into the machine, and I can open up Firefox and browse the web. I have another Red Hat 5 machine set up and working fine, and I've checked that the /etc/yum.conf, /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date, .bash_profile, and /etc/hosts files are all the same (except for hostnames and ip addresses). I'm fairly new to Red Hat, and I don't know what other configuration files to check.
I've been trying to get my wireless working on the livecd to make sure its possible before I install it, but, I get a ton of errors when I install RPM's

I have Fedora 12 (kernel 2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686) installed on my machine. This was a new install, not an upgrade from 11. I am getting the following error when I try to use yum (such as yum update):Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linu...rors-freshrpms error was 14: HTTP Error 404 : http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linu...rors-freshrpms Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: freshrpms.

When I go to the website mentioned, I see that there is no linux/12/ directory. Is there another website I should be pointing to? Or more generally, how do I fix this? I read another thread relating to a problem with the metadata and tried the fixes suggested (yum clean and yum -y remove yum-fastestmirror). There was only limited improvement with this.I am new to Linux so I'm not sure what else would be helpful here. I did do the yum repolist command.
I've made a terrible mistake that I changed files in /etc/yum.repo.d and /etc/yum.conf.Now I can't get update by yum update, saying that ERROR: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: base. Please verify its path and try again. Now I'd like to reset everything to default.What can I do now?
Yum cannot seem to reach any repository. Firefox was fixed by going to about:config and changing network. dns. disableIPv6 = TRUE .Can anyone who has this same problem with a FRESH install of Fedora 11 please confirm that static assignments in the hosts file fixes the issue.
I did preupgrade from fc9 to fc11. I encountered with "an internal system error has occurred". It is keep on bugging even after closed. The details are as follows:
