How do I remove a repository of yum
- by sunil
When I search for a package in yum(centos 6), it tries to search in a repro named 'c6-media'
And it gives a bunch of errors as follows
file:///media/CentOS/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] Could not open/read file:///media/CentOS/repodata/repomd.xml
Trying other mirror.
file:///media/cdrecorder/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] Could not open/read file:///media/cdrecorder/repodata/repomd.xml
Trying other mirror.
file:///media/cdrom/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] Could not open/read file:///media/cdrom/repodata/repomd.xml
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: c6-media. Please verify its path and try again
Obviously the error seems to say that yum is trying to search
for the CD/DVD which installed the OS. I do not have it now.
All I want to do now is to delete this repository from yum.
I went to the package manager graphical tool and removed this from the sources.
Seems yum and the graphical tool do not use the same config. This is just my guess.
