Dear clients,
There are some clients having issues with yum updating/downloading packages, this has to do with the fact that CentOS 6 is officially EOL (End of Life).
More information: https://wiki.centos.org/About/Product
The fix is quite easy, you just have to change the links in the CentOS-Base.repo file, you can find this file in /etc/yum.repos.d/
So do: nano /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo
Remove all its content and copy the whole code below, paste it in the file and save it.
[base]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
#mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os&infra=$infra
baseurl=https://vault.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6
#released updates
[updates]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates
#mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=updates&infra=$infra

#additional packages that may be useful

#contrib - packages by Centos Users
[contrib]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Contrib
#mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=contrib&infra=$infra

When you've saved the file, do yum clean all and then yum update, all should work fine now.
