Cause

My server is CentOS 6. But now CentOS 6 reached end of life on the 30th November 2020. YUM attempting connect to deprecated repositories. So, we need update deprecated repositories URL’s and point to the vault.

Fix Problem

To fix this problem, we should edit /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo

  1. Go to /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory:
1
# cd /etc/yum.repos.d/

For security, before edit this file, you should make a copy of the original file:

1
# cp CentOS-Base.repo CentOS-Base.repo.old
  1. Edit CentOS-Base.repo:
1
# vim CentOS-Base.repo
  1. Edit thw three sections:
  • [base]
  • [updates]
  • [extras]

With following:
