How to Create Local HTTP Yum/DNF Repository on OEL 8

Create Folders for Copy of packages from ISO to local drive

[root@Dm01db08 oracle]# mkdir -p /oracle/repo
[root@Dm01db08 Packages]# mkdir -p /oracle/AppStream

now move the ISO location : You will get 2 folders in iso file

1) BaseOS

2) AppStream

Now copy the content of BaseOs to /oracle/repo

[root@Dm01db08 Packages]# pwd
/run/media/root/OL-8-2-0-BaseOS-x86_64/BaseOS/Packages

[root@Dm01db08 Packages]# cp * /oracle/repo/

Now copy the content of AppStream to /oracle/AppStream

[root@Dm01db08 Packages]# pwd
/run/media/root/OL-8-2-0-BaseOS-x86_64/AppStream/Packages

[root@Dm01db08 Packages]# cp * /oracle/AppStream

After copy is completed : Move to /etc/yum.repo.d

[root@Dm01db08 etc]# cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
[root@Dm01db08 yum.repos.d]# 
[root@Dm01db08 yum.repos.d]# 
[root@Dm01db08 yum.repos.d]# pwd
/etc/yum.repos.d
[root@Dm01db08 yum.repos.d]# ls -ltr
total 8
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1565 Apr 29 00:35 oracle-linux-ol8.repo
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root  470 Apr 30 00:23 uek-ol8.repo

Move both the file with some other name as _old for both files

[root@Dm01db08 yum.repos.d]# mv oracle-linux-ol8.repo oracle-linux-ol8.repo_old
[root@Dm01db08 yum.repos.d]# mv uek-ol8.repo uek-ol8.repo_old


[root@Dm01db08 yum.repos.d]# vi oellab.repo

[oellabrepo]

baseurl=file:///oracle/repo
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0


[oellabrepo]
name=oellabrepo
baseurl=file:///oracle/AppStream
