https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=437991 Summary: netinstall: Cannot access installation media errors- retry clears up the issue every time Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bphilips@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- I have done two netinstalls of Beta3 and have encountered the extremely annoying pattern that the install stalls on an error dialog from YaST that reads: Cannot access installation media openSUSE-ftp 11.1-0 (Medium 1). Check whether the server is accessible. Show details URL http://195.135.221.130/factory/repo/oss Download (curl) error for 'http://195.135.221.130/factory/repo/oss/suse/i586/SOMEPACKAGENAME.rpm Error code: Connection failed Error message: Couldn't resolve host 'mirrors.kernel.org' Clicking "Retry" clears the dialog, downloads the package and continues the install. However, I have to sit and monitor for this dialog since it stalls the install. Can an automatic retry be put in to the download routine to try downloading a few times in case of intermittent connectivity or mirror issues? Thanks. -- 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.
