This article concerns Centron 22.10. (If you are using an earlier version, you need to migrate your platform to a supported OS and a supported version, as versions older than 22.10 are no longer supported.)
Problem
On June 30 2024, CentOS 7 reached its end of life.
Here are several things that may impact existing CentOS 7-based servers:
-
mirrorlist.centos.org is offline
-
mirror.centos.org is also offline.
This means that you will get an error if you try to run a yum install or yum upgrade command on a Centreon 22.10.
Solution
If you get this error, you should replace all your occurrences of mirrorlist.centos.org, mirror.centos.org by vault.centos.org in all CentOS repofiles. The repo files can be found in /etc/yum.repos.d:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1308 Jul 1 15:32 CentOS-CR.repo

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 614 Jul 1 15:32 CentOS-x86_64-kernel.repoFor each CentOS repofile,
-
comment mirrorlist
-
uncomment baseurl and replace mirror.centos.org by vault.centos.org
Here is an example:
# CentOS-Base.repo
#
# The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
# update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and
# geographically close to the client. You should use this for CentOS updates
# unless you are manually picking other mirrors.
#
# If the #mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the
# remarked out baseurl= line instead.
