Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: adobe-linux-i

[Emma4406]

We upgraded one of our databases to Oracle 11g when displaying our oracle enterprise manager it was complaining it need an updated plug in so we installed adobe flash version 11,1,102,55

our enterprise manager screen now only displays with a grey box saying initializing and just hangs there instead of showing the real time chart

flash is working fine as we can view videos and get sound etc so is it to do with the repos problem below?

Thanks Emma

You could disable the repo for the transaction.

yum --disablerepo=adobe-linux-i386 list

I note your email addy used to register here and it's government, are you using proxy as it would affect yum.

i ran that code and then got this message i have checked and rbsun (the enterprise manager screen we are trying to display is set not to use proxy

Can you post

cat /etc/system-release

[Emma4406]

[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/system-release
Fedora release 15 (Lovelock)
[root@localhost ~]#

[leigh123linux]

Ok, F15 is still supported so the repos should work.

[leigh123linux]

Well it appears to be a network issue, are you sure the machine has a working connection to the net.
