Curator Repo Issue?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hello

I've been trying to install curator via yum (on CentOS 6) for a few days now but I keep getting the following error:

> Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
> Determining fastest mirrors
> epel/metalink                                                                                                                                                |  24 kB     00:00

And when you access the URL via web browser, you see the following message:

<Error><Code>NoSuchKey</Code><Message>The specified key does not exist.</Message><Key>kibana/4.6/centos</Key><RequestId>CEBC1BA87328E017</RequestId><HostId>U+kqyUwGZvAyv7IMGbp7Jrpfx5xqHG5MCbBxqfwMFFK6L9OTuxloJhodB8SLnX0v</HostId></Error>

Is this an issue on the elastic side?

PS: This is the repo file:

[curator-4]
name=CentOS/RHEL 6 repository for Elasticsearch Curator 4.x packages
baseurl=http://packages.elastic.co/curator/4/centos/6
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://packages.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch
enabled=1

All followed from the guide here: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/curator/current/yum-repository.html

Thanks for reporting this. I will look into it.

I re-published the repodata. Will you please try again and report?

Error: failure: repodata/primary.xml.gz from curator-4: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.

I cleared the yum cache and metadata but have had no luck.

Other repositories and apps are working OK. Such as Kibana, Logstash etc.

Sounds like something on your end there:

Complete!

I just installed on a clean CentOS 6 machine. I'm not exactly sure what you're running into, but it installs just fine for me.
