  • Yum repository not updating at the installation of RHEL server 7.3 : https://cdn.redhat.com/content/beta/rhel/server/7/x86_64/rt/os/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTPS Error 403 - Forbidden

    Posted on

    Hello everyone,

    I just installed the RHEL server 7.3 developper edition, i'm trying to update yum cache by taping: yum update, then faced the following issue:


    # yum update
    Modules complémentaires chargés : langpacks, product-id, search-disabled-repos,
    : subscription-manager
    https://cdn.redhat.com/content/beta/rhel/server/7/x86_64/rt/os/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTPS Error 403 - Forbidden
    Essai d'un autre miroir.
    To address this issue please refer to the below knowledge base article

    https://access.redhat.com/solutions/69319

    If above article doesn't help to resolve this issue please open a ticket with Red Hat Support.

    One of the configured repositories failed (Red Hat Enterprise Linux for Real Time Beta (RHEL 7 Server) (RPMs)),
    and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
    safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this:

     1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.
    
     2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working
        upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer
        distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the
        packages for the previous distribution release still work).
    
     3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled
            yum --disablerepo=rhel-7-server-rt-beta-rpms ...
    
     4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default. Yum
        will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it
        again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage:
    
            yum-config-manager --disable rhel-7-server-rt-beta-rpms
        or
            subscription-manager repos --disable=rhel-7-server-rt-beta-rpms
    
     5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable.
        Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,
        so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much
        slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice
        compromise:
    
            yum-config-manager --save --setopt=rhel-7-server-rt-beta-rpms.skip_if_unavailable=true
    

    failure: repodata/repomd.xml from rhel-7-server-rt-beta-rpms: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.

    https://cdn.redhat.com/content/beta/rhel/server/7/x86_64/rt/os/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTPS Error 403 - Forbidden

    I've already registred the installation and cleaned yum cache.

    does anyone already faced this ?
    thanks
