Very odd, I can't seem to get past this. Could you look over my autoyast.xml file and see if it looks OK? We are using beta 4 now, but don't see any difference. It may be important that I'm getting the error while installing a "post-package". Autoyast appears to have no problem with the repository the first time around.

For my team, I manage several Linux auto-installations for RedHat & SLES. I have fairly stock autoyast.xml's that have been working quite well for a while. With SLES11SP2, I'm running into a new problem.

As our add-on repository is for internal access only, we've never seen any value in signing our packages.

...

Am I doing something wrong or has this behavior changed?

I tried that with our latest beta of SP2 and it works fine here with an unsigned repo. Either there was something broken with beta3 or there must be something different in your XML file compared to SP1 installations. Autoyast (actually zypp) will try to load the *.asc files in anyway but that does not hurt. I get a 404 here too in the logs. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer Home: http://www.suse.de/~ug - Blog: http://suse.gansert.net listening to: "Super Space Invaders" by Eisenfunk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org

Given SLES11 SP1 Task Creating an autoinstall.xml with a remove-packages section. Problem: In case a ... <remove-packages config:type="list"> </remove-packages> ... Section exist around 1000 packages MORE will be installed on an "minimal" installation. It does not matter if the section is empty or has a few entries. Solution: (for me) Remove the section completely from the xml file.
