Hi! To All GURUS,

I already do (yum clean all) and even copied files from other server to my /var/cache/yum/* and still error in finding mirror site. I dont see any problem on my internet access since opening mirror on firefox is not a problem. Kindly HELP;

Thanks,

Hi!
You could try;

Code:

yum clean all && yum clean metadata && yum clean dbcache && yum makecache && yum update

or

Code:

rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db* && rpmdb -vv --rebuilddb

Will you post the output of your /etc/yum.repos.d/.

========================================

Try the following

service named restart
yum repolist
yum clean all
yum update

If that doesn't fix it

nano -w /etc/yum.conf

Add the following:

timeout=300

If that doesn't work, do the following:

rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db* && rpmdb -vv --rebuilddb
