Hello There,
I am trying to install Fedora 389-ds on Linux 64 bit.
I have done the following steps as part of the installation:
1.
yum upgrade
when I try doing this it gave me the following error:
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: epel. Please verify its path and try again
I did fix using the following:
Changed enabled=1 to enabled=0 in etc/yum.repo.d/epel.repo
2. Install EPEL using the following command
[root@GSOC-GNDC-VM0058 yum.repos.d]# rpm -ivh
This gave me the error.So, I downloaded epel-release-6.5.noarch.rpm manually and kept it in some location and then used the following command:
[root@GSOC-GNDC-VM0058 yum.repos.d]# rpm -Uvh "/u02/Fedora/epel-release-6-7.noarch.rpm"
warning: /u02/Fedora/epel-release-6-7.noarch.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID 0608b895: NOKEY
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
1:epel-release ########################################### [100%]
3. Now I am doing yum instal 389-ds step using commands like
yum install 389-ds
yum --enablerepo=epel-testing-389-ds-base --enablerepo=epel-testing install 389-ds
yum --enablerepo=epel-testing-389-ds-base install 389-ds
all of them are failing with the following error:
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: epel. Please verify its path and try again
I thought that the problem might be with proxy so, I did :
export https_proxy=https://<proxyServer>:<port>
and did some fixes like changing the comments from epel-testing.repo and epel.repo files etc. But it is still failing and sometimes I am getting the following error:
Loaded plugins: aliases, changelog, downloadonly, kabi, presto, product-id,
: refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin, security, subscription-manager,
: tmprepo, verify, versionlock
Updating certificate-based repositories.

Trying other mirror.
....Its trying some more mirror sites and finally failing
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: epel. Please verify its path and try again
I am not that familiar with these yum commands etc.
Could somebody please help me in solving this?
Thanks in advance.
