I've googled this a couple of times, but can't seem to find a straight answer on this problem. I installed the rpmfusion repos both with the GUI and from the CLI and I get this same problem, 'Cannot find valid baseurl'.

Any ideas?

The following is my recommendation for installing RPMs not available in your currently
available repositories.

I downloaded the 2 setup RPMs from the RPMFusion website, then using createrepo I created my own repository, and the required yum config file in /etc/yum.repos.d, (root privileges required)

local.repo

[MyRepo]
name=Local repo Fedora upgrade $releasever
baseurl=file:/home/user/MyRepo/RPMs$releasever/
enabled=0
gpgcheck=0

The above configures the local repository for Fedora 17 should be in directory

/home/user/MyRep/RPMs17

Then using yumex, enabling the local repo I selected the RPMFusion config RPMs for installation,
and then apply. You will then find an updated RPMFusion config RPM that needs to be updated.
After that RPMFusion should be up and working.

Best of luck
