Hammer & Screwdriver [Resolved] Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: InstallMedia.
Most of my commands are returning this error on RHEL 6 64 bit:


Quote:
[root@xilinx acme]# yum list available
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin
There was an error parsing the RHN proxy settings.
RHN support will be disabled.
ftp://192.168.1.100/pub/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] PYCURL ERROR 7 - ""
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: client. Please verify its path and try again
Also I tried installing many sofwtares, but it fails to correctly work. For example I treid installing dos2unix:

Code:
[root@xilinx Downloads]# rpm -ivh dos2unix-5.3.3-5.ram0.98.src.rpm   
 1:dos2unix               warning: user mockbuild does not exist - using root
 warning: group mockbuild does not exist - using root 
warning: user mockbuild does not exist - using root 
warning: group mockbuild does not exist - using root

[root@xilinx Downloads]#  
[root@xilinx Downloads]# 
 [root@xilinx Downloads]#  
[root@xilinx Downloads]#  
[root@xilinx Downloads]# rpm -ql dos2unix 
package dos2unix is not installed [root@xilinx Downloads]#

Why the package not installing?

I am giving here my repo files content
