Yum fails with; Repository 'interworx-7-release' is missing name in configuration

Interworx v7.0.9 I am getting error when doing yum update:

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Repository ‘interworx-7-release’ is missing name in configuration, using id
Repository ‘interworx-7-release-candidate’ is missing name in configuration, using id
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
epel/x86_64/metalink | 17 kB 00:00:00

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.

Wen going to Server, Software updates both these repositories are enabled but empty when I try to edit.

Any help much appreciated.

Hi Nico

I have emailed you the file interworx.repo

I have seen similar with Centos 7 but not with Interworx and there were no real answers as to why Centos 7 fails yum or how to correctly fix it. It seemed trial and error and never sure if it was fixed due to changes or something higher up outside their control

I hope that helps a little but if it still fails, please open a support ticket with IW

Many thanks

John

Hi John,
Many thanks, it did not help, so I run the install script again and ctrl-c it after the yum bits where done.
It did the trick, not sure if you can run the whole script like in cPanel to fix any issues like such.

Kind regards,
Nico

OK, seems a bug as soon you go in Server, *
InterWorx Update Channel and change it to Release default,
it bugs the yum again, and error is back.

Check out /etc/yum.repos.d/interworx-7.repo. Toward the bottom of that file, there is probably a repo definition that only contains enabled=1. Remove this and yum update should be fine again. I will post the exact contents of the half-defined repo once I’m in front of a computer again. We have a bug report in already about this, so we are working on it.

Just to let you know.

Yeah, removing those last two lines:

[interworx-7-release]
enabled=1

Should let you move forward.

The first fively cron that runs after the upgrade should remove duplicate versions of phpmyadmin.

OK thanks for letting me know :slight_smile:
