I've googled this a couple of times, but can't seem to find a straight
answer on this problem. I installed the rpmfusion repos both with the
GUI and from the CLI and I get this same problem, 'Cannot find valid
baseurl'.


Any ideas?

You downloaded the appropriate RPMs from here?

http://rpmfusion.org/

In my .repo files the base URL is commented out and instead depends
onthe mirror lists from http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org

Yes, downloaded straight from the source. And the .repo config is
exactly as you say. Still get the error. I uncommented the baseurl and
it worked just fine. Wierd. I have a F16 box right next to it, with
the identical configuration (granted it's F16, not 17) and it's never
had that problem.

The following is my recommendation for installing RPMs not
available in your currently

available repositories.



I downloaded the 2 setup RPMs from the RPMFusion website, then
using createrepo I created my own repository, and the required
yum config file in /etc/yum.repos.d, (root privileges required)



local.repo



[MyRepo]

name=Local repo Fedora upgrade $releasever

baseurl=file:/home/user/MyRepo/RPMs$releasever/

enabled=0

gpgcheck=0





The above configures the local repository for Fedora 17 should be
in directory



/home/user/MyRep/RPMs17



Then using yumex, enabling the local repo I selected the RPMFusion
config RPMs for installation,

and then apply. You will then find an updated RPMFusion config RPM
that needs to be updated.

After that RPMFusion should be up and working.



Best of luck

FIRST:
pelase get rid of HTML messages on mailing-lists
especially whith 20px letters!

where is any single benfit in creating a local repo
to put the one-shot RPMs compared between

"yum install localfile.rpm"
or
"yum install --nogpgcheck localfile.rpm"

????

there is no difference from any point of view

[1] - for some, the square brackets aren't a part of the commandline but
just indicate an optional parameter...and the [1] is just a foot note to
read this at that point in the text and is also not part of the command
line.
