Using Fedora 22, I am encountering this weird error when executing dnf upgrade:

Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'rpmfusion-nonfree-updates' from 'http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/mirrorlist?repo=nonfree-fedora-updates-released-22&arch=x86_64': Cannot download repomd.xml: Cannot download repodata/repomd.xml: All mirrors were tried, disabling.

Other rpmfusion repos are working fine
I can access http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/mirrorlist?repo=nonfree-fedora-updates-released-22&arch=x86_64 in my browser, and it shows me a list of mirrors.
I already did a dnf clean all, followed by another dnf upgrade.

What to do?

Error is basically telling that it cannot fetch repodata/repomd.xml from any of the mirrrors listed in here , and indeed, if you visit all of those mirrors there is no repodata folder in them so it obviously results in 404 error.

Interesting thing is that repositories for Fedora 23 are working just fine and have that folder and file in all of the mirrors listed in here

I believe something's wrong with their repository and not with your system :-)

Not sure, because I just randomly picked one of the mirrors that was listed here http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/mirrorli... , and it shows me plenty of rpm packages... See screenshot.

EDIT: BUT you are right, the folder repodata with its repomd.xml is missing. OK, that's why. Thanks for the hint! Didn't check for that one before, only if mirror is available and if content can be seen.

Sure RPM packages are there, but there's no repodata folder containing repomd.xml file and that's the reason of the error you mentioned. See the example I provided with Fedora 23 RPM fusion mirror which has everything specified correctly (has repodata/repomd.xml) :-)

OK, I am trying to let RPMFusion people know.. (if they are not yet aware of).

At the moment (March 6th, 2016 15:04 CET), repodata/repomd.xml is missing from the fedora 22 updates repositories. The directory repoview is missing also...

Working again.

Best place to report problems with rpmfusion and their mirrors is sysadmin@lists.rpmfusion.org

Annoyingly enough, the problem is back for 24. They must screw up every other.

Fedora 24 is not even released. Fedora uses hundreds of mirrors all over the world for distributing their software. Of course, it's not uncommon that at some point one of the mirrors or even the master server gets a hiccup. Try again now, or in an hour.

For future reference, as this is a comment, please place it as such, not as a new answer to the question. Thanks!

Hello, I had the same problem on fresh F24. After

su -c 'dnf install http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm'

the problem is gone. I hope this will help you.

I had issue with rpmfusion-nonfree-updates.repo and just disabled it temporarily because RPMFusion hasn't yet updated to support new Fedora version. It'll probably take a week or two.
