Installation Error: repomd.xml signature could not be verified for kubernetes
Quote from moshe on 26/06/2022, 10:05 pmProblem
When user trying to install kubernetes with the following commands ( after adding the repo to /etc/yum/repos.d )
sudo yum install -y kubelet kubeadm kubectl
gets the following error
https://packages.cloud.google.com/yum/repos/kubernetes-el7-x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno -1] repomd.xml signature could not be verified for kubernetes
Trying other mirror.
the issue occurs due to problem yum installer cannot verify the GPG key for kubernetes ( one of the reasons can be problem with epel repository already defined and causes conflicts.
As a workaround if you dont mind about the GPG check you can fix this by. removing the yum check by editing the file
/etc/yum.repos.d/kubernetes.repo ( or what ever name you created it )
and change the value of gpg_check from 1 to 0
