In this blogpost we will see how we can configure local repository on Oracle Enterprise Linux 8, As you know installation of rpm packages is never been very easy when individually (without using repository), there may be many dependencies for installation of single rpm. Hence its always a good practice to use package repository either local or public for installation of rpm package. But in this post we will see how we can configure the local repository on the server. We must have the media/DVD to configure the local repository. - Copy media to any valid directory where you want to configure the repository - Create and Edit Local repository file and use the location where the content has been copied recently - Check the newly configure repository - Now the repository is configured an ready to use. Conclusion: Local repository configuration is simple and its helpful on servers where you cannot configure internet on the server for installation of rpm.
