The last thing I did was yum update and I get problems.. removing the # gave me a different one... This is on a fedora 7 system

[root@localhost user01]# yum check-update

Try diable IPV6 in the network config and diable ivp6 completely by adding

alias net-pf-10 off
alias ipv6 off

to /etc/modprobe.conf

Oh thanks but solved it a while ago by removing the livna repo, and now everything is fine!

- I changed all "enabled" parameters from 1 to 0 in all files from /etc/yum.repos.d (when needed)

Obs: No more internet usage
I didn't delete any #

Don't ask me why, I did it and it worked.

It picks up from the local system instead of getting it from internet, if you change "enabled" option to "0"

I got the same problem but resolved by following the [demirsha] instruction below.
The only two files I changed are:

fedora-core.repo
fedora-updates.repo

Very simple,
All this comenting out won't help you.

Redhat has disabled support for FC1 thru FC7

Check out the parent directory that yum is trying to access - NO FC6

(h t t p colon slash slash ) download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/updates/

in the words of Curtis Mayfield I think you have to move on up.

Hi,
I have the same problem. I found solution to replace baseurl on repos files at /etc/yum.repos.d/ ... with the line follow

baseurl=http://archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/core/$releasever/$basearch/os/

my yum works smoothlly after do the change.

it's better you upgrade your fedora version to the latest.
