Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: boxgrinder-noarch. Please verify its path and try again Any idea what is wrong? I use Fedora 15 fedora yum share|improve this question asked Sep 10 '13 at 7:10 Santhosh 14.4k32547 I ran into a similar problem with the standard fedora repository. There is a big thread on fedoraforum.org where the consensuses seems to be that it cannot retrieve repository is network-related, i.e. yum can't contact hosts in the /etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo files. –Brad Grissom Jul 22 '14 at 22:53 Yes, if there is any network issue, yum cannot contact any repo. But for me, it was only this particular repo file (boxgrinder) that was failing. –Santhosh Jul 23 '14 at 5:34 add a comment| 4 Answers 4 active oldest votes up vote 2 down vote accepted I was able to get rid of this error by removing the boxgrinder repos I removed these files boxgrinder-nightly.repo boxgrinder-noarch.repo boxgrinder-x86_64.repo from /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory. share|improve this answer answered Sep 10 '13 at 8:50 Santhosh 14.4k32547 For people who don't use boxgrinder, but have this problem anyway, look at the other answers. It's about https in the repo file, which should be replaced with http. –SPRBRN Mar 12 '15 at 11:12 add a comment| up vote 2 down vote cd /etc/yum.repos.d/ perl -i -ape 's/https:/http:/g' *.repo worked for me. share|improve this answer edited Mar 7 '15 at 7:29 Magnilex 4,62661945 answered Mar 6 '15 at 20:20 ray.smith 211 cd /etc/yum.repos.d/; perl -i -ape 's/https:/http:/g' *.repo # two commands –ray.smith Mar 6 '15 at 20:22 This does not provide an answer to the question.

update ran silently in to the error: $ sudo yum update -y Geladene Plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit Fehler: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again That didn't tell me a lot about the error, also a yum clean metadata didn't help. After a bit of googling I stumbled across the URLGRABBER_DEBUG variable which tells yum to debug all URL fetching stuff, this lead me to the error: $ sudo URLGRABBER_DEBUG=1 yum update -y Geladene Plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit ... Could not get metalink https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink? repo=fedora-debug-16&arch=x86_64 error was 14: Peer cert cannot be verified or peer cert invalid Fehler: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again It was discovered last year that such errors are not passed to the user, but it might be a good idea to fix this. To get around the error you can temporarily disable the verification of hosts using yum's setopt switch: $ sudo yum update --setopt=sslverify=false Posted by fabiand Labels: fedora, yum 5 comments: skvidalNovember 15, 2011 at 7:42 PMThis is from a broken NSS update. The certificates for mirrors.fedoraproject.org are valid and verifiable vs the normal set of Certificate Authorities.ReplyDeletejodNovember 15, 2011 at 8:09 PMWhat is the fix for this please do you know other than the temporary one you outlined?ReplyDeletefabiandNovember 16, 2011 at 10:30 AMjod, adamw desribes the origin of the problem and a solution.http://www.happyassassin.net/2011/11/15/psa-bad-nss-update-for-f16-messing-up-yum/ReplyDeletejodNovember 16, 2011 at 8:20 PMThanks fabiandReplyDeleteRyanJuly 5, 2013 at 10:08 PMIn a vast sense of cosmic irony, this got me around a current edit-node problem, and I didn't even notice your name at the bottom until I was finished.ReplyDeleteAdd commentLoad more...
