Hi, I'm afraid your mirror's directory layout does not quite fulfill the 
requirements. http://repos.cianhost.net/ shows directories base, 
centosplus, extras, updates which seem to contain packages from the 
respective 7.6.1810 repositories, but mirrors should have much more 
content than those repositories. See for example 
http://mirror-hk.koddos.net/centos/

I'm not sure how you got your content, but perhaps you used reposync. 
That is not going to work, please use rsync instead. Something like 
"rsync -avzH --progress rsync://mirror-hk.koddos.net/centos/ 
/var/www/html/centos" might work for you. Change /var/www/html/centos 
according to your local configuration, and make sure the target 
directory (centos) exists before rsyncing. You can use any mirror 
offering rsync as a source for your initial sync, see the list at 
https://www.centos.org/download/mirrors/

Speaking of rsync, rsync://repos.cianhost.net/ does not seem to work:

$ rsync rsync://repos.cianhost.net/
rsync: failed to connect to repos.cianhost.net (103.113.20.52): 
Connection refused (111)
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(125) 
[Receiver=3.1.2]

Additionally, rsync URLs require the module name in the URL, so I would 
recommend configuring your rsync daemon so that the URL pointing to 
CentOS files would be rsync://repos.cianhost.net/centos/

Please let us know when these issues have been resolved. Thanks!
