Centos6.8 yum Error & Fix YumRepo Error: All mirror URLs are not using ftp, http[s] or file. Eg. Invalid

0. View Yum configuration

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

Add a comment to the mirrorlist in the original configuration, and delete the comment from the baseurl – take the base as an example, and make the same changes to others

[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

Find the $releaser in the configuration file, so first check whether the $releaser can get the corresponding version

[root@hadoop1 yum.repos.d]# lsb_release -a
LSB Version:    :base-4.0-amd64:base-4.0-noarch:core-4.0-amd64:core-4.0-noarch:graphics-4.0-amd64:graphics-4.0-noarch:printing-4.0-amd64:printing-4.0-noarch
Distributor ID:    CentOS
Description:    CentOS release 6.8 (Final)
Release:    6.8
Codename:    Final

It is found that there is no problem in obtaining the version number

An error will still be reported at this time

Run again and Yum returns to normal

[Solved] Centos6.8 yum Error: YumRepo Error: All mirror URLs are not using ftp, http[s] or file. Eg. Invalid

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/

rm -rf /var/cache/yum
yum makecache

Run again
