Error installing any program using yum

[Richard Cahilig]

Hi,

I have problem in my newly installed fedora 12. I got this error every time
I tried to install anything via yum:

[root at localhost User]# yum update
> Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit
> Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository:
> fedora. Please verify its path and try again
>

Below is the contents of my */etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo *

And the contents of my */etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo *

[root at localhost User]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo

I already tried some tips found by searching in google but still no luck. I
tried  to uncomment the* #baseurl= entries *in the files above and add these


80.239.156.215          mirrors.fedoraproject.org
213.129.242.84          mirrors.rpmfusion.org

in my* /etc/hosts *but it still not working.

I even tried these commands:
*
yum clean all
yum makecache*

but still no luck. This is a fresh install of fedora 12, the internet is
perfectly working but I right now I can't upgrade, I can't install anything.
Please help. Looking forward to your assistance. Thank you.

Best Regards,

Richard R. Cahilig
