[opensuse] 10.3 Yast SW management Repositories Continue to Fail
Listmates, On Turkey day, I was going to update a 10.3 box and the repositories one after the other continued to fail. It was like 10.3 had reached eol and the repos had been pulled. The failing repos were education, mail server, php, etc...

Hi David, your problem is normally caused by a mirror that hasn't got the file, the only way to find out which mirror is with wireshark or something that logs the actual mirror connection process.

Dave, Thanks. I hope that it is just a mirror issue. It just seems really strange that I have experienced this problem repeatedly over the past two or three days. It it is a server issue, they usually clear up in 3-4 hours, but for some reason I keep getting install failures. Maybe I'm just lucky?? I'll continue to keep a watch on it and report back. Nothing like a simple 5 minutes file install that turns into a 5 hour investigation.... -- David C.

I've had the problem before where the broken mirror is repeatedly selected after retry, its most probably a local mirror. If you select a specific good mirror for your repo you should be able to complete the install.

Hi David, could it be related to a similar problem I had. See: "Re: [opensuse] Repos for 10.3 gone on mirrors and download.opensuse.org?", (18/11/2008) which became: Re: [opensuse] Resolution problem SOLVED [Was: Repos for 10.3 gone on mirrors and download.opensuse.org?] My solution involved a resolution problem by a hosts entry for 127.0.0.2 inserted by YaST. Not sure why it is needed, but its removal helped my resolution problem; and update problem also. On other systems the hosts entry 127.0.0.2 does not seem to cause the same problem. :-) Al -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
