YUM groupinstall error in Fedora 19

YUM Fedora 19 - We use Yum command to install a software in Fedora. While installing we may face several errors. Below is the error which I faced while using groupinstall command.

Issue 
 I tried to install "LXDE" desktop environment. So my command will be
 [root@localhost ~]# yum -y groupinstall lxde

I got the following error message.
Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit
There is no installed groups file.
Error: Cannot retrieve metalink for repository: fedora/19/x86_64. Please verify its path and try again

Solution
In your terminal, run the following commands.
#yum clean all
#yum grouplist hidden
Perform these commands as super user (i.e) root user.
