All day, whether I use a local satellite or go direct to xmlrpc.redhat.com,
I've been getting:
Error: failed to retrieve
repodata/f09b7552138a491a3b14469c88a18c8ed3fdf674-primary.xml.gz
from rhel-x86_64-server-supplementary-5
error was [Errno -1] Metadata file does not match checksum
I was able to update core packages by excluding the broken channel with:
yum -y --disablerepo=rhel-x86_64-server-supplementary-5 update
Another fix is to log on to RHN and turn off "Supports Location-Aware update
access."
The broken metadata file appears to be on 173.222.248.218.
I have no confidence whatsoever in RedHat support, but if anyone on this list
happens to be in a position to fix it, that'd be great. In any case, other list
members might benefit from the workarounds.
