[BlueOnyx:14952] Re: Yum update poblem

[Michael Stauber]

Hi Alex,

> Could you tell me wich url uses blueonyx to update ?

It uses the config files in /etc/yum.repos.d/ to connect to the various
YUM repositories. The config files have the URLs.

Aside from the OS specific YUM repositories BlueOnyx itself (as defined
in /etc/yum.repos.d/BlueOnyx.repo) uses this URL to grab the YUM updates:

http://updates.blueonyx.it/pub/BlueOnyx/5106R/CentOS6/blueonyx/$basearch/

Where $basearch is either i386 or x86_64.

However, for the updates BlueOnyx also uses various mirrors. The list of
mirrors is polled via this URL:

http://updates.blueonyx.it/mirror.php?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch

Where $releasever is 6.5 for SL/CentOS 6 and $basearch is i386 for 5107R
and x86_64 for 5108R. That then returns a list of URLs which YUM uses to
contact the repositories.

Do a "nslookup updates.blueonyx.it" to see if your server has working
DNS and can resolve updates.blueonyx.it. If that works, then do a "yum
clean all" and a "yum update" and see if you can update. It might be
that your YUM cache is outdated or corrupted and the "yum clean all"
will erase the cache.
