Hey guys,

a few weeks ago i heard from OpenVZ and wanted to test it; i used the Guide "step by step" ( http://wiki.openvz.org/Install_OpenVZ_on_a_x86_64_system_Cen tos-Fedora) and got it working on a 64Bit Server.

A few days ago i wanted to test it on a 32Bit Server, so i installed CentOS 5.4, openVZ, made the changes in the configuration files which are necessary to start OpenVZ and all that's fine.

Then (I'm a total Linux/OpenVZ beginner) i missed the Templates and so on for creating a container, but noticed soon that the tool-installation script for x86_64 which was noticed in the Wiki-Guide i referred above made everything for me. So i installed the following .rpm-file vztmpl-centos-5-2.0-3.i386 (http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=getfile&id=415&) which i found in the script.
After that i started vzpkgcache and got following lines which I don't understand (i only know that it isn't working and no templates were created).

Hello,

I'm a little bit confused because of the
http://mirror.netcologne.de/
I've downloaded vztmpl-centos-5-2.0-3.i386 with help of the link that you provided earlier but there is no netcologne.de in
/vz/template/centos/5/i386/config/yum.conf file. Have you changed that file? As far as I understand repositories are described in that file.

Hey thank you for your reply so far!

I changed the yum.conf cause i read on such articles i found via google that maybe the repository which is configured is "broken" but i replaced the conf-file after that try with the backup i made before. There's still the same error :S

(Maybe someone could tell me a repository where these errors won't appear? Could this be my solution?)
