Description
Reproduce steps...
- Create a yum proxy repository in Nexus with remote set to http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64
- Configure yum in CentOS 7.3 to use it
This fails with an error complaining that the encoding has not been set in the primary.xml file.
Sure enough, if you check the file from RedHat it has:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
Our generated XML is missing the encoding:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

The overwriting error message was: Parsing primary.xml error: Premature end of data in tag metadata line 1 One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown), 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=<repoid> ... 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 <repoid> or subscription-manager repos --disable=<repoid> 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=<repoid>.skip_if_unavailable=true Parsing primary.xml error: Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding !
