Hi again,

I solved the problem... ;-)

After creating /etc/resolv.conf on the guest it all worked fine.

Maybe someone should update the install guide to reflect this.

Med venlig hilsen / Best regards,

Hello.

I'm new to Vserver, and I've gone stuck during install of my first guest.

I'm using :

Installation following http://linux-vserver.org/VServer+installation+Fedora+Core+5 worked fine until section 5.

When I run: vyum <guest name> -- install yum
Then I get this:
-------------
You are using a version of yum which is insecure and broken in chroot
related operations; either apply the patches shipped in the 'contrib/'
directory of util-vserver, or ask the author of yum to apply them
(preferred).

In the meantime, 'vyum' will continue with dirty hacks which might not
work when the vserver is running and local DOS attacks are possible.

Execution will continue in 5 seconds...

A well known irritation. I've been looking/checking to see if this is still true especially with FC5. In the mean time I've hacked the script and given it my own text and taken the 5 second timeout out.

Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: core
Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: core

I've seen a lot of these the last few days. Started for me Sunday when I was trying to build some guests on a newly build host. After much searching through the code I couldn't find the actual cause but suspect it is a problem with the FC5 repository mirror list ( and possibly some of the repositories are having issues also). This is not an isolated case for me. I've had this problem on two different systems, on two different networks, from two different ISPs, at two different locations , in two different states. Is that too much? :-)

  Usually after several; up-arrow and enters; it finally works.

Good luck. I won't have a chance to research/debug it again until this week-end. All my vserver guests at work are built and doing fine.
