Error: Cannot retrieve metalink for repository: epel. Please verify its path and try again

有时候，在使用YUM的EPEL源的时候，你会遇到如题所示的Error，它具体的表现如下：

[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]# yum repolist
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, security
Determining fastest mirrors
Error: Cannot retrieve metalink for repository: epel. Please verify its path and try again
[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]#

造成该问题的原因是因为默认的epel源的mirrorlist找不到信息。
如下：

[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]# pwd
/etc/yum.repos.d
[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]# 
[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]# ls
CentOS-Base.repo       CentOS-Media.repo  epel.repo          Percona.repo     remi-php71.repo  remi-safe.repo
CentOS-Debuginfo.repo  CentOS-Vault.repo  epel-testing.repo  remi-php70.repo  remi.repo
[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]# 
[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]# 
[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]# cat epel.repo 
[epel]
name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 6 - $basearch
#baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/$basearch
mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-6&arch=$basearch
failovermethod=priority
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6

[epel-debuginfo]

#baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/$basearch/debug
mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-debug-6&arch=$basearch
failovermethod=priority
enabled=0
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6
gpgcheck=1

[epel-source]
name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 6 - $basearch - Source
#baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/SRPMS
mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-source-6&arch=$basearch

gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6
gpgcheck=1
[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]#

解决方法如下：
对epel.repo执行如下操作：
1. 注释mirrorlist
2. 放开baseurl

如下：
将上述的epel.repo修改为如下形态：

[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]# cat epel.repo 
[epel]
name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 6 - $basearch
baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/$basearch
#mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-6&arch=$basearch
failovermethod=priority
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6

[epel-debuginfo]
name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 6 - $basearch - Debug
baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/$basearch/debug
#mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-debug-6&arch=$basearch
failovermethod=priority
enabled=0
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6
gpgcheck=1

[epel-source]
name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 6 - $basearch - Source
baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/SRPMS
#mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-source-6&arch=$basearch
failovermethod=priority
enabled=0
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6
gpgcheck=1
[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]#

然后，再次尝试【yum repolist】：

[root@mha2 yum.repos.d]# yum clean metadata

Cleaning repos: LocalPercona base epel extras remi-safe updates
