Wrong Digest error

[caf4926]

Strange I didn't get this error. My mirrors are Kent in UK.

I just did refresh again now 13.14hrs UK. Still working fine for me.

[FeatherMonkey]

Mine to caf(Though last was oxford) guess they have a better sync policy. Without someone posting some info won't know.

But if I was to guess I reckon as they updated the master, some mirrors where syncing.

Though the rpm seems strange as I downloaded it to check the sum. But it doesn't seemed to of changed since being released the date is 03-Dec-2008 18:31.

I can only guess that perhaps one of the metadata files was wrong at some point.

[FeatherMonkey]

Either that or it has been updated and we're waiting for it to sync

[ram88]

It's OK now. Refresh your repositories and grab the latest icon theme!

Well I cant gunzip primary.xml.gz, as seen in the quote below it errors.

I checked the sha1sum of primary.xml.gz against the one in repmond.xml and they match.

I am being redircted to mirror.pacific.net.au

Sorry for the lag in updates, work keeps me pretty busy.

I am going to try an update now, will post back with results.

Well still getting the same error:


Im going to try not using the download.opensuse.org mirror and pick another one. Hopefully its just the Australian mirror, I have had similar issues with other au mirrors for linux distributions. iinet have a habit of letting their mirror for .debs get up to 6 months out of sync.

I swapped to the mirror Index of /opensuse for updates, oss and non-oss. Unfortunately I still get a wrong digest error.

So having tried all, can someone please provide me with a method to test this manually. I still suspect all issues lie with my proxy provider who insist its not their issue (just like any good ISP helpdesk).

[ram88]

Are you tried to refresh your repositories?

sudo zypper refresh

[mem_novell]

Tried, no difference

mem@linux-682p:~/working> sudo zypper refresh
root's password:
System management is locked by the application with pid 31390 (/usr/lib/YaST2/bin/y2base).
Close this application before trying again.
mem@linux-682p:~/working> sudo zypper refresh
Retrieving repository '11.1' metadata [done]
Building repository '11.1' cache [done]
Repository 'openSUSE-NonOSS-Add-on 11.1-0' is up to date.
All repositories have been refreshed.

Tried Yast2, "Software Repositories" and get the same digest error.

Still hoping someone can break down the yast method so I can manually test and identify where it is failing.

From what I can work out..

Secure Installation Sources - openSUSE

You're checking against http://mirror.nyi.net/opensuse/distr...po/oss/content now this has the checksum in it, as returned by your machine.

In my limited opinion you seem to be checking against some kind of content that is wrong. I would of expected you to see corruption elsewhere if proxy, i.e manual download of rpm.

I don't know where Suse stores this file or even if it does, but to me it looks like it isn't getting newer files. Though you seem to of solved it with zypper.

To me you don't have a problem with the proxy, otherwise the file would be corrupt. Even when it errors it errors with the correct checksum, but the sum it is checking against is wrong. Now as to why the sum is wrong I haven't got a clue it's like you have an old cache or something. As the one on the repos adds up fine i.e package.gz with content from failing mirror.

Edit
Perhaps something is being cached by the proxy and not being requested as new, wild out there idea maybe.
