Cannot retreive metalink for repository epel

Hi

If some body receive the above error first you should check the connectivity and firewall issues and still if the problem persist.

Sample Error

You should edit the  /etc/yum/repos.d/CentOS-base.repo or epel.repo

and change all the URL’s that pointing to https  to  http  save the file

Restart the yum process.

Hint –  Always start the yum process with debug switch ,which helps us in troubleshooting –  ( yum -d6 update)
