RHEL (RedHat) 6.3 use EPELYum Source

Because RHEL (RedHat) 6.3 needs to install flow-tools, you need to set the epel source. The method is as follows: 32-bit System Selection: rpm-ivhhttp: // configure

Because RHEL (RedHat) 6.3 needs to install flow-tools, you need to set the epel source. The method is as follows:

32-bit System Selection:
Rpm-ivh http://download.Fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
64-bit System Selection:
Rpm-ivh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

Import key:
Rpm -- import/etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6

Configure epel yum source http://www.linuxidc.com/Linux/2012-10/71850.htm

Execute commands in rhel:

# Yum repolist

Error:

Error: Cannot retrieve metalink for repository: epel. Please verify its path and try again

Solution Process:

It took a long time. But it also deepens its understanding of yum.

After the epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm is installed, two files are added under the/etc/yum. repos. d directory:

Epel. repo // This is the standard epel source, tested and relatively stable

Epel-testing.repo // This is the latest and is being tested.

By default, yum searches for all files in the/etc/yum. repos. d directory and searches for the yum source. The premise for searching is enable = 1. If enable = 0, the source will not be searched.

After comparison, we found that the epel in the above error indicates that the problem was found in epel. repo.

Open epel. repo and find that only the first [epel] is enable = 1. The other values are 0, indicating that this is a problem. But where is the problem?

Manually access the source address https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink in ie? Repo = epel-6 & arch = $ basearch. No problem found.

It's time to get stuck. I found a lot of information online. The configuration cannot be adjusted according to various methods. During this period, I also explored the configuration myself. I remember that the configuration was correct, but I don't know why it didn't work. Later, someone modified the settings as follows:

# Baseurl = http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/?basearch

Using list = https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink? Epel-6 & arch = $ basearch

To:

Baseurl = http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/?basearch

# Items list = https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink? Epel-6 & arch = $ basearch

Test with commands:

# Yum repolist
