Yum.conf baseurl is not working.
Hi friends,


This is my /etc/yum.conf. I think my basurl and updateurl is not correct. When I am installing something, it is giving error.


Quote:
yum install python
Loading "security" plugin
http://mirror.dulug.duke.edu/pub/yum...ta/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 502: Cannot Connect
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: base. Please verify its path and try again

My yum.conf file is this : Please help me.
Quote:
[main]
cachedir=/var/cache/yum
keepcache=0
debuglevel=2
logfile=/var/log/yum.log
distroverpkg=redhat-release
tolerant=1

# Note: yum-RHN-plugin doesn't honor this.

# Default.

# PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo
# in /etc/yum.repos.d
