Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: c5-media

Description of the Problem

I have newly installed Centos 5 and when I was trying to run Add/Remove Software I got the following error:

Unable To Retrieve Software Info, Package Manager

Also I tried installing package using yum, but showing the following:

Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: c5-media.
Please verify its path and try again

Solution of the Problem

su –
vi /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Media.repo

find the string “enabled=1”  to “enabled=0”.

That’s it. Just re-run Package Manager.
