Yum is blissfully unaware of how the hostname is resolved. It just uses
a system call and expects to get an answer within a reasonable time.
The message "do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out" is coming from ypbind
and indicates that NIS is not working as it should.
Swapping the order of dns and nis in nsswitch.conf will probably get you
going for this particular case, provided that dns is working. But
the NIS problem is going to bite you sooner or later if you don't sort
it out.

hosts: files nis dns myhostname
Maybe I should change to
hosts: files dns nis myhostname
?

It is a problem if yum expects it to be something else. NIS passes all the
tests I have ("ypcat " outputs what I expect).

NIS is working fine, at least, for what I expect it to do. What makes you think NIS is involved? What does yum use NIS for? Is there a test command I could use to see whether NIS is working for yum? What names is yum looking up? Is Errno 12 a clue? I tried searching for (do_ypcall: clnt_call: rpc: timed out "errno 12" ), got many confusing hits, nothing obviously helpful. thanks, Dave ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] yum causing RPC timed out?
Apparently CentOS-7 - Base is failing, what does that mean? How do I contact the upstream for the repo? How do I find a working upstream? More info from command execution: do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out http://mirror.supremebytes.com/centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 12] Timeout on http://mirror.supremebytes.com/centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: (28, 'Resolving timed out after 30384 milliseconds') Trying other mirror. One of the configured repositories failed (CentOS-7 - Base), and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this: 1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem. 2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the packages for the previous distribution release still work). 3. Disable the repository, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage: yum-config-manager --disable base 4. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable. Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands, so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice compromise: yum-config-manager --save --setopt=base.skip_if_unavailable=true failure: repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2 from base: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. http://centos.corenetworks.net/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 12] Timeout on http://centos.corenetworks.net/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: (28, 'Resolving timed out after 30385 milliseconds') http://mirror.us.oneandone.net/linux/distributions/centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 12] Timeout on http://mirror.us.oneandone.net/linux/distributions/centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: (28, 'Resolving timed out after 30385 milliseconds') http://centos.sonn.com/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 12] Timeout on http://centos.sonn.com/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: (28, 'Resolving timed out after 30383 milliseconds') http://centos-distro.cavecreek.net/centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 12] Timeout on http://centos-distro.cavecreek.net/centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: (28, 'Resolving timed out after 30383 milliseconds') http://mirror.clarkson.edu/centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 12] Timeout on http://mirror.clarkson.edu/centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: (28, 'Resolving timed out after 30383 milliseconds') http://mirror.thelinuxfix.com/CentOS/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 12] Timeout on http://mirror.thelinuxfix.com/CentOS/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: (28, 'Resolving timed out after 30383 milliseconds') http://mirrors.psychz.net/Centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 12] Timeout on http://mirrors.psychz.net/Centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: (28, 'Resolving timed out after 30383 milliseconds') http://repos.mia.quadranet.com/centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c94929f61f-filelists.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 12] Timeout on http://repos.mia.quadranet.com/centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/repodata/3cda64d1c161dd0fead8398a62ef9c691e78ee02fe56d04566f850c9
[CentOS] yum causing RPC timed out?
I just installed centos 7, yum is acting strange, experiencing RPC time-outs. Sometimes when I disable the additional repos (epel and rpmforge) it seems to make things act normal.
