Running command yum update

user-00e5nAug 17 2023

Hello,

I write for the following reasons: I was trying to run the command yum update over an ssh connection between my Ubuntu 22.4 OS and my OL 6.7 Virtual Machine, built inside the Virtualbox application.

Virtual machine installation process was smooth, no problems encountered.

I could open a ssh connection to the virtual machine with the command

ssh -v -o HostKeyAlgorithms=ssh-dss -o KexAlgorithms=diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 root@192.168.1.107

When I tried to run the first command

wget http://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-ol6.repo

it ended without problems.

But when I tried to run the **yum update** command, I got the following error message.

[root@localhost etc]# yum update
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit, security, ulninfo
Setting up Update Process
http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL6/UEKR3/latest/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] problem making ssl connection
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: public_ol6_UEKR3_latest. Please verify its path and try again.

I made some internet search but I didn't find any information that could be useful.

Could you please shed a ray of light on this error so that I could figure out a solution ?

Thank you very much for your attention reading this

Kind regards

Filippo
