CAUSE
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.
RESOLUTION
To fix this problem you edit /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo and replace all mirrorlist
1. Go to /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory:
# cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
2. Make copy of original file:
# cp CentOS-Base.repo CentOS-Base.repo.old
3. Open and edit file with any text editor:
# vi CentOS-Base.repo
4. Replace mirrorlist‘s
Replace sections:
[base] [updates] [extras]
With following:
[base] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base #mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os&infra=$infra #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ baseurl=https://vault.centos.org/6.10/os/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6 #released updates [updates] name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates #mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=updates&infra=$infra #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/update/$basearch/ baseurl=https://vault.centos.org/6.10/updates/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6 #additional packages that may be useful [extras] name=CentOS-$releasever - Extras #mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=extras&infra=$infra #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/extras$basearch/ baseurl=https://vault.centos.org/6.10/extras/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6
