I am configuring my own repository for epel. I am consistently getting the following error: "Failed to search for file: cannot update repo 'epel_everything': Cannot download repomd.xml: Cannot download repodata/repomd.xml: All mirrors were tried; Last error: Status code: 403 for http://annex-repo-02/epel/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml" Clearing the yum cache did not help
$ yum clean all
try on your machine

This command will clean the yum cache, removing any cached metadata that may be causing the issue.
