Re: YUM not listing rpms from my local hosted repository

Yes there is but it's on the Nexus server side since its a hosted repo and not a local repo. There is a scheduled task which is set to rebuild the repo metadata each hour. I can see the metadata files updating but the client does not as evident in the output from the yum repoinfo command.

Re: YUM not listing rpms from my local hosted repository

I did not run createrepo. The repo exist through Nexus Repo manager OSS. However, what did resolve the "latest" display of rpm revisions issue was running 'yum clean expire-cache'. Which I still can't figure out why I had to run because I did add 'metadata_expire=1m' in the yum.conf file. I shouldn'...

Re: YUM not listing rpms from my local hosted repository

I used the yum.conf parameter and it did help. (Thanks) In addition to that, I made another discovery that might explain what I thought was a problem but not. I think I need a better understanding of how yum works from the yum repo to the client. To start, my repo contained four testing rpms named l...

YUM not listing rpms from my local hosted repository

I setup a Nexus Yum Repository within my local network. I'm able to push and pull rpms from the repo with the curl and wget commands. I then configured a repo file in /etc/yum.repo.d called nexus.repo. But yum will not list the rpms that I pushed into the yum host. The metadata on the host is being ...

Baby steps with CentOS7-Gnome DE

Long time Linux user and CentOS user. I'm making my first baby steps with this release. In the Gnome-Shell, I can not find a way to configure the lockscreen or screensaver (whatever Gnome is calling it these days). I can lock the screen but all I get is a big clock for about 3 seconds and then the d...

Re: Need name of the 2.6.32-642 source rpm

Understood. A few hours ago I found a link on the CentOS site that said I needed the kernel-devel.* rpm. I captured it from yum and that indeed was the package I was needing. I'm good now. Thanks for helping out.

I found this rpm kernel-2.6.32-642.el6.src.rpm and it contains the following list of files. Is this the correc...
