Cannot run yum commands or use EA4

Hi all, Yesterday I ran the "yum cleanall" command because inside EA4 in WHM it could not find any packages. Now I cannot run any yum commands at all. For example: yum update yum makecache yum upgrade All of these fail and return an error like this: yum update Loaded plugins: universal-hooks Could not retrieve mirrorlist 64-mirrorlist: (28, 'Connection timed out after 30006 milliseconds') One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown), and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this: 1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem. 2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the packages for the previous distribution release still work). 3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled yum --disablerepo= ... 4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage: yum-config-manager --disable or subscription-manager repos --disable= 5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable. Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands, so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice compromise: yum-config-manager --save --setopt=.skip_if_unavailable=true Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: EA4 Also, when trying to access EA4 in WHM I get: The YUM cache is incomplete. The system is updating the cache to repair the issue. This operation can take a few minutes to complete (it is very network and disk i/o intensive). EasyApache 4 will be available as soon as possible " Followed by this error about 30 seconds later: YUM encountered errors outside of EasyApache 4. Log into the system via SSH to resolve them, or you can click the "Refresh" button to rebuild the system"s YUM cache. I have tried: Changing the DNS servers Uncommenting the baseurl in the mirrorlist About 5 hours of other things tinkering Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Thanks in advance for any help, I really appreciate it.

Hello, Please post the output from the following commands:

 cat /etc/yum.repos.d/EA4.repo
cat /etc/redhat-release
grep distro /etc/yum.conf

Also, are you able to successfully run the "ping httpupdate.cpanel.net" command from the cPanel server? Thank you.

Hello, Feel free to open a support ticket and we can take a closer look at how YUM is configured on the system: Create Support Ticket - Version 68 Documentation - cPanel Documentation Thank you.

All above answers were not worked for me.... After many days ,I found the answer by my self. Here is the solution 1.After installing the cpanel you have to immediately run the command> /scripts/configure_firewall_for_cpanel 2. Done
