CentOS 6.8-通过yum命令来安装软件时提示：Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository

Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: base. Please verify its path and try again.

1.切换源文件（修改源文件）：

sudo vi /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo

2.将以下内容替换源文件的[base]、[updates]、[extras]、[centosplus]、[contrib]下的配置内容：

[base]

#mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os&infra=$infra
#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/

3.整体修改部分更新一下缓存：

name=CentOS-6.8
enabled=1
failovermethod=priority
baseurl=//mirrors.aliyun.com/centos-vault/6.8/os/Source/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://mirrors.aliyuncs.com/centos-vault/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6

4.更新下缓存

yum clean all
yum makecache
