If createrepo is done on the folder on disk, then copied to a dvd, you 
would need to include in the .repo the path to the dvd folder that 
contains the repodata directory.

If you copied the repodata from elsewhere: not the filelist file 
contains relative paths that can screw it up if you didn't lay it out 
like the source repo laid it out.

In any case, a yum -d 15 update could be useful to assist.
