[Bug 229249] New: ZMD - Software updater - Gathers information from an undefined source
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=229249 Summary: ZMD - Software updater - Gathers information from an undefined source Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: i386 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Update Problems AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: alpha096@tpg.com.au QAContact: jsrain@novell.com ZMD - Software updater is trying to get an update source of Refresh Failed: Failed to parse XML metadata: Can't add repository at http://ftp.isu.edu.tw/pub/Linux/SuSE/update/10.1: Cannot create the installation source This source is NOT defined in YAST as an installation source. I have no user control over the installation source as such and in this occasion IDS has been told to DROP all traffic from Taiwan Data Systems IP range 140.117.0.0 - 140.138.255.255 and this constraint will NOT be lifted due to other issues from this IP range. This mirror was originally selected by installation and was removed from installation source. It is clear that I have no control over what ZMD want to get its catalogue from. I have selected the only truly reliable mirror in the region (found after so many others time out) which is included in the installation source and is in the same country as my location. ZMD must obey the information displayed in installation source OR create a new GUI interface for the ability to control it! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

From screen shot its evident that the problem is happening in YaST2.
YaST2 software-updater is different from ZMD-software updater. YaST2 does not use ZMD. Rather both YaST2 and ZMD use common backend library libzypp. For more details please refer the following URLs http://en.opensuse.org/Understanding_zmd http://en.opensuse.org/Libzypp Hence this bug is not related to ZMD-software updater Assigning back to the QA contact -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

I have kept the 10.1 YAST log files as of 10/27/2006. I am sorry if these logs do not demonstrate the issue above as much has changed in 3 months both in re-installation and re-installation of 10.2 more than 3 times each time the drive has been formatted. If these logs do not prove helpful - only action at this late stage would be 'close invalid' There may be some possible duplication in compression I had trouble in sorting out the old YAST2 files. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Please, reopen if you can reproduce it and immediatelly attach the logs. The error report itself sounds to me like corrupted metadata fetched - it sounds like a server error, not a client one. I'm not aware of any other report of this problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
