On a new RHEL 6 Build freshly registered to a local SAT server I could not get a yum update.
kept getting error:
Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository:
Please verify its path and try again
Did the usual yum clean commands but no help. Followed many suggestions on Google like verifying hostnames, host files, yum conf files, etc but none seemed to work.
Finally found a clue and checked this file /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
Found the server URL and changed it from https to http and my problem was fixed.
Not sure what was up with that since I did not have this issue during the first install I did on that same system on the same day or again after I rebuilt it again that same day. In both those cases I registered and updated with no problems.
