Installation problem when trying to access repo https://espejito.fder.edu.uy

Hi!

Since yesterday the cwp installation over centos 7.x is not working,
error:

failure: repodata/repomd.xml from mariadb: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.
http://yum.mariadb.org/10.4/centos7-amd64/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 12] Timeout on https://espejito.fder.edu.uy/mariadb/mariadb-10.4.33/yum/rhel/7/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml: (28, 'Operation timed out after 30770 milliseconds with 0 out of 0 bytes received')

Any information to resolve the problem?

Thanks in advance!!

In today's world, you shouldn't install CentOS 7.9 for a fresh server installation -- it is completely EOL in a couple of months, so instead you should install AlmaLinux 8, which has a clear path forward to EL9 and an ELevate script for upgrading, as well as an EOL that is 5 years away.

(Which makes me wonder WHY there are still forums here for CentOS 6 Problems and CentOS 5 Problems...)

CentOS 7 repos are starting to shutdown due to EOL.
MariaBD shutdown their CentOS 7 repos awhile ago.

Goto you /etc/yum.repos.d/mariadb.repo, and replace everything in it with RHEL 7 from below:

https://mariadb.org/download/?t=repo-config&d=Red+Hat+Enterprise+Linux+7&v=10.4

Just select the nearest mirror to you, and save.

Run yum clean all, the yum update.

But you should start planning on migrating over to AlmaLinux 8

Thanks!

When trying to run the cwp fresh installation over Almalinux 8,
occurs the same repo problem, probably because of my VPS geo location,
MariaDB calls a repo from Uruguay that can't be accesible: https://espejito.fder.edu.uy/.....

Is that the only way to manage repos url for a fresh cwp installation? or i'm missing something else?

Thanks in advance for your help!

That MariaDB might be having problems.
I can't reach it here from the US, and that server isn't on the MariaBD mirror list either.

Which is why you might need to configure it to another location in the mariadb.repo manually.

Looks like the nearest Official MariaDB mirror is in Chile.

Try the below data in your mariadb.repo:

https://mariadb.org/download/?t=repo-config&d=Red+Hat+Enterprise+Linux+8&v=10.4&r_m=insacom

I am having the same problem when trying to install, the MariaDB repository is not found and the installation fails in both Centos 7 and Almalinux 8.9. Could someone explain how to change the repository link so I can update it with another one? thank you

The link above is to the MariaDB repo mirror config.
For distro, select either RHEL 7 or 8. Depending on what you have installed.

You have to select the version MariaDB you have, or follow the CWP upgrade wiki.

This is basic server administration.
