Centos8.1 on Virtual Box Yum Install Error
I am trying to install Guest Additions on Oracle VirtualBox and needed to install gcc, perl, make, etc. When doing so, I get the following error:
CentOS-8 - AppStream 0.0 B/s | 0 B 00:00
Failed to download metadata for repo 'AppStream'
Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'AppStream'
My Host is MacOS Catalina. Any idea about how to resolve this issue?
Solution
I followed the following steps. (Added screenshot as well)
- Go to Oracle VM settings and make sure the adapter is NAT
- Start your machine
- Go to settings -> Network -> click on the settings icon in "Wired"
- select the 3rd tab "IPv4"
- select Method as "Manual"
- Add the following data
- Address = 10.0.2.3, Netmask = 255.255.255.0, gateway = 10.0.2.2, DNS = 8.8.8.8
Note: T
his is because the Oracle VM default NAT is 10.0.2.2
