[SOLVED] yum yum yum

**dr_hacker** · 02-07-2009

first i uses fedora 10
this problem begins with my attemp to install mplayer
i decided to use yum instead
but it said that he can't find it although i've installed livna repo
i was surprised as i installed it before on fedora 9
i added all the repo [atrpms,freshrpms,google]
but after that when i tried to use yum to install mplayer i found that i lost it !!!
it gives me that message when i want to use it to install anything

Code:

Loaded plugins: protectbase, refresh-packagekit
    Options Error: Error parsing '1': URL must be http, ftp, file or https not ""

i am shocked as i can't do without yum
does anyone have a solution ??

You seem to have an error somewhere in your repos, you may want to edit them and make sure you have no typos or invalid repos.

Error parsing '1': URL must be http, ftp, file or https not ""

Its not recommended to use multiple third pardy repos. I would suggest you to use only one repo at a time.
Execute this

Code:

su -
ls /etc/yum.repos.d

Post output here.

Have you tried VLC Player? It supports most of formats.
Execute this

Code:

yum -y install vlc

I would suggest you to use either Livna or Freshrpms, not both.

Mplayer is part of the RPMFusion repositories.

Code:

[glenn@coolhand ~]$ yum list mplayer*
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit
Available Packages
mplayer.i386                        1.0-0.103.20080903svn.fc10                     rpmfusion-free-updates
mplayer-doc.i386                    1.0-0.103.20080903svn.fc10                     rpmfusion-free-updates
mplayer-gui.i386                    1.0-0.103.20080903svn.fc10                     rpmfusion-free-updates

To install and use RPMFusion execute this code in a terminal

PHP Code:

 su -c 'rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm'

You should now be able to install mplayer.

Code:

sudo yum install mplayer
