RHEL5 creates its own yum source server (based on http)

To solve the dependency problem of the software package, the best way to release the Red Hat series is to use yum to build the yum source using the files in the rhel installation CD file, here, we use http (Local CD mode and local file mode). This document records the brief process for your reference only.

1. Mount the installation disc to the System

Mount/dev/cdrom/media/

2. copy the file to the rhel5 directory of the web server.

Cp-fr/media/*/var/www/htm/rhel5

3. Rebuild the record group file
First, confirm that the createrepo package has been installed.

Cd/var/www/htm/rhel5/Server
Rpm-ivh createrepo-0.4.11-3.el5.noarch.rpm

Then re-create the rpm record group file

Createrepo-g/var/www/html/rhel5/VT/repodata/comps-rhel5-vt.xml/var/www/html/rhel5/VT

Createrepo-g/var/www/html/rhel5/Cluster/repodata/comps-rhel5-cluster.xml/var/www/html/rhel5/Cluster

Createrepo-g/var/www/html/rhel5/clusterstore/repodata/comps-rhel5-cluster-st.xml/var/www/html/rhel5/ClusterStorage

Createrepo-g/var/www/html/rhel5/Server/repodata/comps-rhel5-server-core.xml/var/www/html/rhel5/Server

4. Create a repo library file rhel5-http.repo under the/etc/yum. repos. d directory
(Note: The file name is arbitrary and the file suffix must be repo)

Cd/etc/yum. repos. d

Vi rhel5-http.repo
# My machine IP address is 192.168.171.3

5. Clear the local yum Cache
Yum clean all

6. Test

Yum-y install vim *
