Further information provided by OP showed this server was managed from a central RH Satellite server. To resolve this, the channel would need to be added to Satellite and the server subscribed to to that channel. The satellite server would then resolve $releasever correctly and it should work from there.
I hope to have a spacewalk server setup to confirm this behaviour. -- RHEL repository problems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373548 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OurDelta- developers, which is the registrant for OurDelta. Status in OurDelta - Builds for MySQL,MariaDB: New Bug description: The yum repository setup as described on http://ourdelta.org/centos does not work. I'm setting up on an x86_64 RHEL5 server machine: $ lsb_release -a LSB Version: :core-3.1-amd64:core-3.1-ia32:core-3.1-noarch:graphics-3.1-amd64:graphics-3.1-ia32:graphics-3.1-noarch Distributor ID: RedHatEnterpriseServer Description: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3 (Tikanga) Release: 5.3 Codename: Tikanga Trying to install, it seems that $release version is '5Server' on this machine, whilst the repo expects it to be '5'. $sudo yum install Mysql-OurDelta-server Loaded plugins: rhnplugin http://mirror.ourdelta.org/yum/CentOS/5Server/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found Trying other mirror. http://northernmost.uk.mirror.ourdelta.org/yum/CentOS/5Server/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found Trying other mirror. http://nerdvana.us.mirror.ourdelta.org/yum/CentOS/5Server/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found Trying other mirror. http://cc.us.mirror.ourdelta.org/yum/CentOS/5Server/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found Trying other mirror.

Please verify its path and try again I can use a local mirrorlist and change '\$releaseversion' to '5', but then it defaults to installing i386 packages, not x86_64 ones. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ourdelta-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ourdelta-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
