#1

Is anyone else having having a problem with mirrorcache or download.opensuse.org? I can’t even do a “zypper ref”. Just waits…

#2

Hi
There are a couple of progress reports now, just be patient for the folks in Germany to sort out the issue :wink:

#3

openSUSE has improved substantially on mirroring. No more errors in daily “zypper dist-upgrade” since switching to mirrorcache-eu in June:

Mirroring is now virtually transparent!

Leap uses currently:

**erlangen:~ #** zypper --releasever 15.4 --root /mnt/@/.snapshots/1/snapshot/ lr -E

Yes, I had trouble accessing download.opensuse.org last night. In the morning the problem was gone.

Works fine today. Haven’t had that kind of problem in quite a few years. Just caught me by surprise, is all.
