Yum failure: repodata/repomd.xml 404

[dancrunch]

I was trying to make my own yum repository and I have it set up on a server but I can't get my other system to connect to it. On the host machine the repository works fine but not over a network.

Here is the repo file on the client side

[danny_repo]
name=daniel_repo_client
baseurl=http://10.1.12.101/var/www/html/two/
enabled=1

This is what I get when I run yum list
yum list
http://10.1.12.101/var/www/html/two/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found

One of the configured repositories failed (daniel_repo_client),
and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this:

1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.

2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working
upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer
distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the
packages for the previous distribution release still work).

3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled
yum --disablerepo=danny_repo ...

4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default. Yum
will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it
again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage:

yum-config-manager --disable danny_repo
or
subscription-manager repos --disable=danny_repo

5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable.
Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,
so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much
slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice
compromise:

yum-config-manager --save --setopt=danny_repo.skip_if_unavailable=true

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

It's unlikely your URL will have /var/www/html in it unless you have left the Apache httpd docroot as /var/www/html and then created a subdirectory called /var/www/html/var/www/html with your repodata directory under that. If your server directory is /var/www/html/two then it's much more likely that you should be accessing it as http://x.x.x.x/two/

Did you run createrepo --update on danny_repo?
Did you ensure that the HTTP server can access all the files (so if subtree is owned as root:root, o+rx on directories and o+r on files)?

It's unlikely your URL will have /var/www/html in it unless you have left the Apache httpd docroot as /var/www/html and then created a subdirectory called /var/www/html/var/www/html with your repodata directory under that. If your server directory is /var/www/html/two then it's much more likely that you should be accessing it as http://x.x.x.x/two/

Thank you That work changing the url to take out /var/www/html work.
