In the 1st case, you might have copied only the .rpm files from the installation media and not the repomd.xml file that actually contains information about the repository and dependencies etc. To create this file, you need to have the createrepo command installed (you have to use the rpm command and have to install the dependencies manually though. But that's worth it). Post that, you should be able to use your local repository.
In the 2nd case, it's not an error from the yum's end. I have tested this with ftp client and you cannot get past the debuginfo directory without passive mode.
