<br>@daryl<br>did you use relative path for specifically centos 6.5 like:<br><br>/mirrors/CentOS/6.5<br><br>or you use generic 6 version? like:<br><br>/mirrors/CentOS/6<br><br>both for base and updates, because centos repos when release new minor release will empty updates directory on the last one<br><br>best regards<br>a<br> <br>
