Dear all,

I tried to search the mailarchives, but found nothing and had to wait really long for that result. J

Well, I’m having problems with yum and its update-command (I issued yum clean all before):

[root@hgf-dc-hn ~]# yum update

Repository sl-errata is listed more than once in the configuration

Repository sl-base is listed more than once in the configuration

Loading "kernel-module" plugin

Setting up Update Process

Setting up repositories

ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/44/SL/RPMS/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 4] IOError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

Trying other mirror.

Cannot open/read repomd.xml file for repository: sl-base

failure: repodata/repomd.xml from sl-base: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.

Error: failure: repodata/repomd.xml from sl-base: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.

Did the location for repomd.xml change or are there other problems with {sl.repo | sl4x.repo | sl-errate.repo | sl4x-errata.repo}? One month ago there were no problems with exactly the same repos…

Because I don’t know much about administrating Linux I also don’t know where to look for alternatives. I always rely on yum to manage it by itself.

Kind regards,

Xavier Mol.
