Using https repository through proxy
by Julien.GILLES＠sungard.com 26 May '11

26 May '11

Hi, for various reasons I am trying to install a private repository for Centos 5, and I would like to use HTTPS only connections. The servers must access to this repository through a proxy. In the .repo file I have configured : baseurl=https://my.repository/pkg/stable/$basearch The proxy is defined correctly. yum fails with: https://my.repository/pkg/stable/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 501: Not Implemented Trying other mirror. Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: Please verify its path and try again. Using a fake proxy shows me that the request sent by yum is not correct (ie GET https://... Instead of a classical CONNECT request). I have found (thanks google) that this bug is known, seems related to urllib2.py and httplib.py from python 2.4, but I can't find a way to make it works. The patches and the solution are quite old, and does not seems to apply (or I am doing something wrong). Futhermore the bug is known from Redhat https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=208852 since a long time, and according bugzilla has been corrected in 2006 ! Well, I don't know where to look at now, so help appreciated ! -- Julien Gilles.

QA Testing - QAWeb Community Site
by Jeff Sheltren 12 May '11

12 May '11

We now have a site up which will be the central location for the QA efforts on CentOS: http://qaweb.dev.centos.org/qa We're starting to use this for the 6.0 release, though I would consider it to still be in a "testing" phase. We need to figure out what works well here and what doesn't so that we can improve it for future releases. You'll notice as you go to the site that there is a calendar with target dates for the 6.0 release. I'm not guaranteeing that we'll make those, but that's what we're aiming for. Also, you'll see a case tracker which is where we'll track bugs and TODOs. There's one there currently which could use some attention which is the LiveCD creation. If you're interested in helping that effort, please read over the ticket and the linked sites for more info and chime in on the ticket to help (not this email thread please). Aside from that, there's not much there at the moment. I'm envisioning that the QA team will use the Notebook section for reporting on tests done, and the case tracker for reporting bugs/issues that arise during testing. This is still a work in progress, so it may be changing as we go along. For starters, we will be working on adding an RSS feed to the QA group so that people can easily track activity there without having to visit the website frequently. Thanks to everyone who was involved in getting the site up! -Jeff

centos 5.5 -> 5.6 pushout
by Florian La Roche 12 May '11

12 May '11

Hello, running "/usr/sbin/hardlink" on the CentOS 5.5 and 5.6 directory saves 2 GB of disk space. Not huge, but if that is done on the main server once, all rsync mirrors would pick this up. Reducing the overall mirror space needed and the size of new data for a CentOS Update release should be important. best regards, Florian La Roche

Public QA Testing?
by Mike Doroshenko 11 May '11

11 May '11

The calendar on the QA site says ISOs will be pushed to QA this Saturday. Will these ISOs be made public for testing or do I need to join the QA Team? I have some machines that I can run test installs on.
