Description Pierre-YvesChibon 2011-11-17 17:56:37 UTC
Description of problem:
I added a repo file to yum.
The baseurl was:
baseurl=file:///data/repo/RPMS/entreprise/$releasever/r-repo/$basearch/

yum info was returning the information as expected.
yum install was failing.

$ sudo yumdownloader --urls R-ada
...
file:///data/repo/RPMS/entreprise/6Server/r-repo/noarch//R-ada-2.0.2-1.el6.noarch.rpm


The double // was the problem.

To make it working I changed my baseurl to:
baseurl=file:///data/repo/RPMS/entreprise/$releasever/r-repo/$basearch


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-3.2.29-17.el6_1.1.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create repo config file with a local baseurl ending with a /
2. yum install <package in the local repo>
  
Actual results:
Error message: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. 

Expected results:
Install the said package

Hi Pierre,
I am not able to reproduce this bug. In my case yum is working as expected.
Seems to me strange that in your setup $basearch is expanded to "noarch". Are you sure this is not a misconfiguration on your system?
Thank you.

Comment 5 Pierre-YvesChibon 2012-01-17 14:01:53 UTC
I reported the bug on the demand of Seth after he helped me to debug it.

When I had this problem, I actually had two repo added, one $basearch, one 'noarch' (the idea was to not duplicate the noarch package nor use symlink, since I changed that setup).

I will try to replicate it again.

Comment 6 Karel Srot 2012-02-01 10:21:50 UTC
Hi, 
any update on this?

Seth, 
we are not able to reproduce this bug (see #c4). Can you provide more details about the set up?
Thank you.

Comment 7 Karel Srot 2012-02-14 09:20:49 UTC
Seth?

Comment 8 seth vidal 2012-02-14 14:15:27 UTC
I do not recall the context of this, now.
I thought this was fixed with a normpath() in the code.

Comment 9 Zdeněk Pavlas 2012-02-15 15:21:51 UTC
I too can't reproduce it.

The BASE + RELATIVE url/filepath concatenation is done in urlgrabber's mirror group module, and it DOES indeed prevent duping the slash.  The code dates to one of the initial commits back in 2004.

Comment 10 Pierre-YvesChibon 2012-02-22 08:53:17 UTC
ok I can't reproduce it anymore. Back then I had a weird configuration with a repo for arch and one for noarch, but I don't see how it would be related.

I just did some tests here and with or without the tailing slash I can install the rpm.

hm I don't seem to be able to close the bug directly, can you do it?


Thanks and sorry that it took so long.
