Yum repository

Hello sir
Can I get the link of Your YUM repository so that I can configure in .repo file to point to your yum repository for packages.Is there any payment we need to do for that.Now we want packages named yast2-country.2.13.35, yast2-users, autoyast2-installation, yast2-bootloader, yast2-mouse, yast2-online-update, yast2-packager, yast2-storage, yast2-update, .Can you please provide from where I get these packages.These packages are asked when I tried to install yast-installation rpm. Waiting for you response

You didn't drill deep enough while looking at the repo:
http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL5/7/base/i386/
You must download the public-yum-el5.repo repository setup file, as directed.
Open the file in an editor.
What version of OL do you have? Leave that stanza alone. Comment out all other stanza using an octothorp (#), just like the shell uses.

Oracle VM 3.1.1 Yum repository

Hello,
As far as the documentation says, the Yum repository should be set only at the Oracle VM Manager.
1. Is there a way to add more than one yum repository address ?
2. Is there a way to check which are the available packages for each Oracle VM server, through the Oracle VM
3. Is there a way to install just a single package from the repository, not to perform upgrade
Thanks

It's just ordinary old yum on the server doing the work, so you can do whatever you want. (Maybe Oracle would quibble about what is "supported", of course.)
When you set the yum repository URL from the manager, he just (from what I've seen) sets up the /etc/yum.repos.d file on all the servers. I assume, but haven't checked, that the file wouldn't get updated after that. So, you can update that file to add more repositories, if you want to.
And you can certainly run "yum list updates" and "yum update xxx" manually on whatever servers you want to.

Up2date http forbidden error when trying to use local yum repository

I have recently set up a local yum repository according to the directions in the document located at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/servers-storage-admin/yum-repo-setup-1659167.html
Now, when I run up2date -u, I get the following output:
There was a fatal error communicating with the server. The message was:
An HTTP error occurred:

Thinking this was a problem with my repository or web server setup, I used wget to download the header.info file mentioned in the error, but this works perfectly as shown from the output below:

Thanks for the helpFirst of all, having both of these setup is completely redundant. The only difference between these two channels is that the el5 channel contains rpms from before the release of OL5.6 and up to now and the ol5 channel only contains everything since OL5.6 to now.
Second, can you post the entire sources file?
Third, though Dude isn't completely correct about the use of up2date, you can use yum on OL5 to get updates from the server, but you'd need to just use yum and not up2date in that case. For some reason, when you configure up2date to use yum via the sources file it uses a completely different stack of yum software other than the yum client that is installed by the yum rpms. Instead, it uses the older header format provided by yum-arch. When you use yum by itself, it uses the metadata that's created from createrepo instead (think repodata).
Fourth, you may have better luck with using the yum client overall. And actually, in the long run you would be better served to use yum since asa OL4 is phased out, we're going to discontinue yum-arch which will in turn stop the up2date clients from working in this scenario. (Note: we don't use yum-arch to generate header information for ULN.)

Oracle VM 3.1.1 - How to define the YUM repository URL

The documentation shows an example or two about how to define the URL of the Yum repository I created, but it doesn't seem to define EXACTLY what to do. For example, the URL to the directory with my RPMs in it is:
http://my-yum.acbl.net/yum/OracleVM/OVM3/3.1.1/patch/x86_64/getPackage
Can someone tell me how much of that path I should enter into the "YUM Base URL" sub-tab under the "Tools and Resources" tab in the VM Manager? I have tried to make an intelligent guess (or two), but it's not updating properly, and I don't know if I'm entering the URL properly.

Thank you. I'll try that, and update this again, if it seems to be wrong.
I actually opened an SR on this, and asked this same question. After several hours, I got a response, something like "What part of the documentation do you find unclear?". I tried to carefully explain that the docs don't (as best I can tell) define how much of the path should be in the URL given to Oracle VM. I still haven't heard back.

Yum Repository Setup

Hi there,
I have been following the instruction fro the following page:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/linux/htdocs/yum-repository-setup.html
and I got to step 7. Run createrepo
but createrepo is not installed nor downloadable from oracle, I believe it has something to do with step 3. Install uln-yum-proxy.
up2date -i uln-yum-proxy
The following packages you requested were not found:
uln-yum-proxy
This is not important I was trying it for learning purpose, but it would be nice if it did work.
Can i download redhat's createrepo package or that will not work?
Many Thanks
Ricardo

Sergio I already cdid this step but I still can't find the uln-yum-proxy file. Any comments?
Thanks in advance

Not able to configure yum update or yum repository on the OVM 3.1.1

I just downloaded the new OVM 3.1.1 but I am having a tough time to configure yum update.
There are no repositories present in the yum.repos.d.

please check the /etc/yum.repos.d

Local repository on Oracle VM Manager, then yum check-update itself

Hi.
I have one Oracle VM Manager server as Oracle Linux 6.2 x86_64 that ULN registerd.
To update my Oracle VM Servers I set up local yum repository on my Oracle VM Manager, and it works OK with my Oracle VM Server Upgrade.
(Here is nice documents: http://itnewscast.com/oracle-vm-patch-updates )
However when I run "yum check-update" to keep secure OL6 itslef on my Oracle VM Manager, it shows update for el5 (not el6) as below;
ethtool.x86_64 2:2.6.33-0.3.100.1.el5 ovm3_x86_64_latest
kernel-uek.x86_64 2.6.39-200.1.1.el5uek ovm3_x86_64_latest
kernel-uek-firmware.noarch 2.6.39-200.1.1.el5uek ovm3_x86_64_latest
pciutils.x86_64 3.1.7-5.el5 ovm3_x86_64_latest
python-urlgrabber.noarch 3.9.1-9.100.1.el5 ovm3_x86_64_latest
unzip.x86_64 6.0-3.100.1.el5 ovm3_x86_64_latest
I can run as 'yum --disablerepo="ovm3_x86_64_latest" check-update' to ignore above updates, but is there any way more smart?

I installed this patch to see if it would fix the problem I'm having, which is:
After a fresh install of 3.1.1 on two servers and the manager, everything worked fine until I rebooted the servers the first time. Then they came up in the "starting" state, and stay there. The error messages from the discovery process say something like "com.oracle.ovm.mgr.api.exception.IllegalOperationException: If the IP address of this server has changed, please delete the server: toravm2.acbl.net, and re-discover."
The servers have certainly not changed any hardware or IP addresses. They were just installed!
Anyhow, the installation of Build 365 and reboot of the servers fixed ONE of them. But the other one is still stuck in the "starting" state, and is UNUSABLE.
Any idea what the discovery process might be seeing that would cause this?

Any chance of YUM repo for PHP

Oracle has quite a few PHP5 rpm packages for RH EL 5.x on
http://oss.oracle.com/projects/php/files/EL5/i386/
Is there any chance of turning this into a yum repository? I think it would be extremely useful.

mgogala wrote:

How to Setup yum with OEL

Hi,

No access to public repository

When I try to go to http://public-yum.oracle.com/EnterpriseLinux/ I get error 404 (page not found). Anyone else having this issue?

You did not specify what you are trying to accomplish but http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/ is the root of the public yum repository. You can also check the content of the repo files listed at the main URL for info. However, keep in mind that browsing some of the directories is very resource intensive since they contain many files. Browsing the "latest" directories may not even be feasible and freeze your browser.
There is usually no need to browse the repo files as all available software can be listed and installed using the YUM utility, which is the standard, beside up2date since RHEL5. Using the RPM utility does not resolve software dependencies, in case this is what you have in mind.

Yum command not found on x86-64 RHEL4

I can use yum install or upgrade command on RHEL4 32Bit,
However i am not able to use the same on 86-64Bit machines on RHEL4 I am installing oracle and need to install some missing rpms

If you are installing Oracle Enterprise Linux (OEL), be aware that yum(1) is not used to update the distribution RPM packages. Only up2date(8) can be used for that, it the Oracle ULN repository requires a paid subscription.
If you are looking for RPM packages to finish your Oracle RDBMS installation, they should be on the OEL distribution media.
As other folks have indicated, the yum RPM package is available but Oracle does not provide a YUM repository for updates. But you can configure it to use an external, 3rd-party repository if you like.

Missing dependency error while installing kernel-2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64 and yum-utils package

Hi Experts,
I'm not able to install the kernel in Oracle Linux using "Yum install". I'm getting error's while installing Kernel. The Kernel version is 2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64 (in the linux CD of virtual box) Can you please guide me how to proceed further.
I used the commands below :
wget http://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-ol6.repo
yum install kernel-2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64
I'm getting so many errors saying "Error Missing Dependency libpq.so.4() 64bit" Error missing dependency libmysqlclient.so.15()64 bit
Please find screenshot below : http://imageshack.com/a/img30/33/kp5z.jpg
I searched through the net and tried using "yum clean all" and yum update etc.. but the problem is not resolved...
Please note I booted from a linux Oracle linux 6 bootable CD and trying to install Oracle Linux 6 kernel on my machine..
I tried installing "yum-utils" package too using the below command, but that too failed giving missing dependency errors..
Yum install yum-utils
I dont' know much about linux and stuck with the issues above for more than 30 days now... please help...
Regards Jags

You cannot use the yum utility to do a major version upgrade, such as upgrading from Oracle Linux 5 to Oracle Linux 6. Kernel version 2.6.32-358.el6 is the RHCK kernel and requires Oracle Linux 6. So if your attempt was to install a driver that works only for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 kernel, you will have to upgrade the OS first. For this you must start from the OL6 installation DVD, but upgrading between major release versions is not officially supported. You can however upgrade to the latest Oracle UEK kernel, by enabling the appropriate channel in the yum repository configuration file.

Your help will be really appreciated.

Hi,
Fist verify your internet connection (ping any website)
If you have dhcp server (verify the GATEWAY Address and DNS Address)
If static configuration
FIX IP Address in the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
FIX GATEWAY Address in the file /etc/sysconfig/network
FIX DNS Address in the file /etc/resolv.conf
     => Now verify your connection
     2. Second verify your YUM repository configuration. (it's like Dude sed)
It seems you your YUM repository configuration is not setup properly. I suggest to check the content of /etc/yum.repos.d/. Since your hostname "oeltux.idc.oracle.com" suggest you are working at Oracle, you might rather want to get in touch with internal support. Otherwise instructions provided at http://public-yum.oracle.com/ should work too.
and your system use the uek6.
[root@oeltux ~]# uname -a
Linux oeltux.idc.oracle.com 2.6.39-300.28.1.el6uek.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Feb 5 22:51:31 PST 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Verify that /etc/yum.repo.d/public-yum-ol6.repo looks like:
[ol6_UEK_latest]
name=Latest Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel for Oracle Linux $releasever ($basearch)
baseurl=http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL6/UEK/latest/$basearch/
gpgkey=http://public-yum.oracle.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-oracle-ol6

Unable to use public-yum for R installation

Dear experts,
I am trying to install R-core for Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 update 6 in order to deploy a R server on it. According to the installation manual I should be using Oracle's public yum server to download and install R (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27988_01/doc/doc.112/e26499/install.htm#BABDFEDA).
However following the guide, setting up yum repository and everything is working fine, when I key in "yum install R.x86_64" it returns there is no such package. I scanned the public yum folders and found no R rpms. May I know where should I get the rpms or where should I point the yum to look for the R packages?
Thanks.
Cheers,
Philip

Hi,
It still shows the No package found error.
I ran yum list and there isn't any R/R-core packages available.
