problem

Error when installing software using yum

YumRepo Error: All mirror URLs are not using ftp, http[s] or file.
Eg. Invalid release/repo/arch combination/
removing mirrorlist with no valid mirrors: /var/cache/yum/x86_64/6/base/mirrorlist.txt

Solution

1. View yum configuration file

vim /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo

2. Add a comment to the mirrorlist in the original configuration, and delete the comment from the baseurl to make it effective. Take the base module as an example, and the other modules are treated the same

base]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
#mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os&infra=$infra
baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6

It still doesn’t work because the baseurl link mirror.centos.org has no resources.

3. Reconfigure the resource path https://vault.centos.org/6.8/

Modified configuration

# CentOS-Base.repo
#
# The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
# update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and
# geographically close to the client.  You should use this for CentOS updates
# unless you are manually picking other mirrors.
#
# If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the 
# remarked out baseurl= line instead.

4. Clean the cache

yum clean all
rm -rf /var/cache/yum
yum makecache

Run again
