Leslie,

Dan got to it before I could. It does appear that our docs are out of date. (Sigh) and I am sure Dan will fix those up. I see that you are at Lockeed. Your IT dept. may have you behind a proxy, if not then what Dan says should just work. If you are behind a proxy, find out from someone in your org. what the proxy server is and then use that as your proxy for yum. When I saw what you were doing (using lart) I groaned as that was an indication our docs were messed up. Hope this all helps. Good luck.

Hi Leslie,

I apologize for the confusion. There are a few things that we need to correct in our documentation, which I will elaborate on here:

First, you do not need to set the proxy as described, unless you happen to be working from behind the Hewlett Packard corporate firewall, which, chances are, you're not. We put that information in our documentation in error, and I will see that it's removed.

Second, the wiki documentation directs you to use the "RC1" bits, referring to our "release candidate". However since those wiki pages were written we have released the final version of FOSSology 2.0.0, which should be used instead of any of the "RC" versions. Again, this is an error in our documentation that I will fix.

Your yum configuration should look like this (for x86_64 architectures):

# FOSSology releases

[fossology]

name=fossology release

baseurl=http://www.fossology.org/releases/2.0.0/RHEL/6/x86_64/

enabled=1

gpgcheck=1

And again, you most likely do _/not/_ need a proxy, certainly not the internal HP one.

If you have any further issues, please let us know.

Thanks,

Dan Stangel

I am using the proxy from the documentation:

For all rhel systems, a proxy must be set so yum can reach the outside world. Modify /etc/yum.conf.

proxy=http://lart.usa.hp.com:3128

Do you recommend I use 2.0.0rc3-1?

Ray is correct, if you are behind a proxy you will have to set in it the yum config file. Setting in the environment seems to have no effect. Is there is a reason you are using RC1? The released version is much better. Please consider using the release version.

    Hi Leslie.

    I tested the URL and it is working for me in a browser.

    Do you use a proxy setting in your yum.conf?

    Hi,

    I am having issues trying to install fossology via yum.  Here is
    my fossology.repo

    # FOSSology releases

    [fossology]

    name=fossology release

    baseurl=http://www.fossology.org/releases/2.0.0-rc1/RHEL/6.x/6/$basearch

    enabled=1

    gpgcheck=1

    *_I'm getting the following error:_*

    Unable to read consumer identity

    (28, 'connect() timed out!')

    Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for
    repository: fossology. Please verify its path and try again

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks,
