Hi,
Hope you are well. Last night, I was trying to upgrade our Nagios XI upgrade, initially from the XI intranet, then manually. Both came up with same error: "Error getting repository data for rmforge, repository not found"
I have attached the screen shot from 'Putty'.

Kindly assist.

Try installing rpmforge as outlined in this link, run the upgrade again, and let us know of the outcome, thanks

Hi biwallac,
Thanks for our reply.
While installing after downloading using wget, it seemed to me that the rpm is already installed (system message, as per below):


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2016-05-19 21:55:42 (17.0 KB/s) - `epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm' saved [12232/12232]

[root@aunagiosxi tmp]# rpm -ivh epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
package epel-release-5-4.noarch is already installed

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried again upgrading from GUI as well as manually, same error.

Any suggestion, mate?

Looks like you installed the EPEL one, when the one you need is rpmforge.
