Hi, since wednesday morning, on all my machines with FC5 "yum update" fails: yum update Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories core [1/3] Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: core Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: core OR: === yum update Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories extras [1/3] Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: extras Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: extras I don't know, why!!
Well I had the saem problem. The fix is easy. Uncomment the baseurl lines in fedora-core.repo, fedora-extras.repo, and fedora-updates.repo (all of which are in /etc/yum.repo.d) The problem is that the mirrors pages are down. See: http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-core-fc5 http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-extras-fc5 http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-updates-fc5 respectively. When the page comes back online, you can just replace the comments. ie. recomment the lines. There should be no real problem if you forget to do that however. Peace -- To be updated...
