Hi everyone

I try to convert my RHEL8 vm to Rocky Linux but I encountered this problem. How can I control which packages ı need? Theese repos are mirroring from another rhel8 vm. This system is not registered.

Found the following repositories which map from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.5 (Ootpa) to Rocky Linux 8:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.5 (Ootpa) Rocky Linux 8
rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms appstream
rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-rpms baseos
Getting system package names for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.5 (Ootpa)…Error: No Matches found
Can’t get package that provides /etc/yum.repos.d/repocopy.repo.
An error occurred while we were attempting to convert your system to Rocky Linux. Your system may be unstable. Script will now exit to prevent possible damage.

Hi @entel_feridun, are you using the migrate2rocky.sh script?
