EPEL repository doesn't work in Centos8
EPEL repository doesn't work in Centos8
Hi,
i want to install the EPEL repository in my CentOS8 but it seems they doesn't work.
I followed this guide:
https://www.linuxtechi.com/enable-epel- ... l8-server/
But i receive some errors about an SSL certificate not signed and if i run "yum check-update" i receive some error with the sync of the epel repository.
Why? Can someone help me?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Christian

Re: EPEL repository doesn't work in Centos8
Those intructions are unnecessary. We already ship the epel-release package so all you need to do is run yum --enablerepo=extras install epel-release
Run yum clean all and then yum --disablerepo=epel\* remove epel-release then install it from extras.

The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

Hi,
i tried your commands now, and no error has occured.
But when i run "yum check-update" i got this error:
In english the error is something like "cache synchronization failed for 'epel' repo".....
The same error i received with the previous metod.

Re: EPEL repository doesn't work in Centos8
You can get yum to give you English errors directly by prefixing it with e.g LANG=C yum check-update
You mentioned SSL errors but there are none in the current output. Do you still see those?

Re: EPEL repository doesn't work in Centos8
Probably....because i got this error in my work PC....i tried some minutes ago the same things in a VM on my personal PC with my personal internet connection at home and all works fine!
How can i check if the problem is some block in the work network? I can try to open a ticket at my IT channel. Is there an URL can i check? The URL of the epel repository for example...
Thanks a lot in advance

Re: EPEL repository doesn't work in Centos8
Read man yum.conf and search it for "proxy" and then you can add entries to yum.conf containing your proxy address/username/password and see if it works. If you don't know the details then you will need to ask your IT people.

Re: EPEL repository doesn't work in Centos8
Hi, i think i solved the proble adding the CA certificate of my company in the Virtual Machine (i remember in the past i had to do this operation in my Ubuntu VMs), i followed this simple steps:
Code: Select all
1) Install the ca-certificates package (already installed):
yum install ca-certificates
2) Enable the dynamic CA configuration feature:
update-ca-trust force-enable
3) Add it as a new file to /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/:
cp [certificate].crt /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/
4) Use this command to add the new certificate:
update-ca-trust extract
