I have no problem refreshing Oss, nonOss, source, and debug repositories. The repository from this page http://en.opensuse.org/Package_Repositories for Update 11.1 version gives me the same error as default install repo-update. It starts the download process, then chokes after a few minutes, not always the exact same byte output: # zypper ref repo-update Retrieving repository 'repo-update' metadata [\]Download (curl) error for 'http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.1/repodata/primary.xml.gz': Error code: Unrecognized error Error message: transfer closed with 1777371 bytes remaining to read Abort, retry, ignore?

Skipping repository 'repo-update' because of the above error. Could not refresh the repositories because of errors. To produce error as root use zypper ref repo-update, or go to system>yast>online update>refresh and I get the same error in a pop up box. I use a 56K modem. I have tried refreshing Update with default firewall in sysconfig disabled, as well with NetworkManager disabled (rebooted) with same error. To fix this, I have been using an alternate mirror from Germany, which works. http ://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/ In the past week I have reinstalled opensuse11.1 and got this error upon initial first update refresh, so maybe something has changed with the default mirror. I then updated the system with the alternative mirror and then changed back to the default mirror found at the main repository page (link above) to test if problem still exists, and got the same error. I labeled bug as Minor, as I can get the updates from an alternative mirror. Just curious what has happened since June? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
