 One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown),
 and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
 safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this:

     1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.

     2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working
        upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer
        distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the
        packages for the previous distribution release still work).

     3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled
            yum --disablerepo=<repoid> ...

     4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default. Yum
        will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it
        again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage:

            yum-config-manager --disable <repoid>
        or
            subscription-manager repos --disable=<repoid>

     5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable.
        Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,
        so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much
        slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice
        compromise:

            yum-config-manager --save --setopt=<repoid>.skip_if_unavailable=true

Thank you for reporting, I think this is due to latest updates to mirrorlist configuration.

We will try to fix ASAP

Hi @LayLow I applied a fix to the server-side script. Could you try again nethserver-install?

i seem to face a similar challenge when installing nethserver.

Error: Package: netdata-1.32.1-1.el7.x86_64 (epel)
           Requires: nodejs
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Hi @oneitonitram

The problem here has been solved nearly three years ago!

Yours can’t be the same problem, I’m closing this ticket.

If you still have an issue, please open a new support ticket, instead of reactivating a long solved issue!

My 2 cents
