One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown),

Question

Pretty new to docker; trying to get base layer setup on docker though it gives me these errors:

It's noting that the repository is failing / how do I set that repository? I don't think it's AWS issue as I have been able to see the AWS push in cloud formation.

$./generate_base_layer.sh

#6 36.47  One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown),
#6 36.47  and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
#6 36.47  safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this:
#6 36.47 
#6 36.47      1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.
#6 36.47 
#6 36.47      2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working
#6 36.47         upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer
#6 36.47         distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the
#6 36.47         packages for the previous distribution release still work).
#6 36.47 
#6 36.47      3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled
#6 36.47             yum --disablerepo=<repoid> ...
#6 36.47 
#6 36.47      4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default. Yum
#6 36.47         will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it
#6 36.47         again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage:
#6 36.47 
#6 36.47             yum-config-manager --disable <repoid>
#6 36.47         or
#6 36.47             subscription-manager repos --disable=<repoid>
#6 36.47 
#6 36.47      5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable.
#6 36.47         Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,
#6 36.47         so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much
#6 36.47         slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice
#6 36.47         compromise:
#6 36.47 
#6 36.47             yum-config-manager --save --setopt=<repoid>.skip_if_unavailable=true
#6 36.47

I've already logged into docker and tried it with docker build -t... ; same issue

dockerfile:

FROM amazonlinux:2

RUN yum install -y python37 && \
    yum install -y python3-pip && \
    yum install -y zip && \
    yum clean all

# Install dependencies
COPY ./requirements.txt .
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt -t ./python

# Zip it up for deployment.
RUN zip -r layer.zip ./python/
ENTRYPOINT ["/bin/bash", "-l"]

generate_base.. file:

# Generates a base layer for the Lambda functions.

# Remove the container first (if it exists).
docker rm layer-container

# Build the base layer.
docker build -t base-layer .

# Rename it to layer-container.
docker run --name layer-container base-layer

# Copy the generated zip artifact so our CDK can use it.
docker cp layer-container:layer.zip . && echo "Created layer.zip with updated base layer."
