problems with repositories i think

**sam-in-hull-acount-2** · 07-12-2010

hi all ,,,
firstly i'm sooo embarrasingly new to linux,

i have searched all the forums about my predicament

any way my problem started when i was trying to get Gnome Do (gnome docky) sorted out, i was on a page explaining what to download or copy using a terminal, so like a newbie i copied the code suggested and pasted in a terminal thingy, that was it,

I have tried "yum lean all" , and "yum clean metadata", ive googled the text asked.com.... for a few days now, searched these forums, googled every conotation i can think of,,, either im unique in that i cant find a fluffy thing to do with what i have got,,,,

ive checked the file in question its in /etc/yum.repos.d folder.

i have opened the file wit gedit text editor and basically it takes me to facebook login page

here's what comes up in yum when requesting ANYTHING AT ALL,,,,
without the brackets

( Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit, remove-with-leaves
Config Error: File contains no section headers.
file: file://///etc/yum.repos.d/kagesenshi.repo, line: 1
'<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"\n' )

thing is i dont really know how to go about fixing this without re-installation and start all over again,

i have
acer laptop, aspire 1600,
fedora 12.
intel pentium 4 2.8
512mb ddr sdram
40gb altra ata/100 hdd
dvd/d-rw

no idea what else to put,,, hope someone an help,,,,

thanks in advance

Error:

Code:

Config Error: File contains no section headers.

Where is the error? This file:

Code:

/etc/yum.repos.d/kagesenshi.repo

This is a custom repo you added and it has bad configuration information in it. Move/delete the file:

Code:

mv /etc/yum.repos.d/kagesenshi.repo /root

Rerun yum afterwards.
