I am installing oracle linux 6.5 in oracle virtual box :

I want to run yum update command

I have edited the following files :

1) gedit /etc/yum.conf

installonly_limit=3

proxy=http:/www-porxy.us.oracle.com:80

gedit /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date

enable proxy=1

httpProxy[comment]=HTTP proxy in host:port format, e.g. squid.example.com:3128

httpProxy=http://www-proxy.us.oracle.com:80

even after this i am getting thebelow error

[Errno 14] PYCURL ERROR 5 - "Couldn't resolve proxy 'www-porxy.us.oracle.com'"

Trying other mirror.

Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: ol6_UEK_latest. Please verify its path and try again

i have followed the post

https://community.oracle.com/thread/3561359

but the solution over there didn't work .

I have followed the steps in the above post it doesn't solve my problem, but my network connectivity is fine, am able to browse.

Thanks
