Error code: Connection failed

When using YaST or zypper:


Download (curl) error for 'http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Extra/openSUSE_12.1/repodata/repomd.xml':
Error code: Connection failed
Error message: Failed to connect to 2001:67c:2178:8::13: Network is unreachable

I can’t connect via chrome (I could once, after several attempts and a very slow load), so I suppose is a server issue.

Where can I see if this is a server problem?
Like a “server status” icon or something.
Also, the forums are failing me too ;__;

The forums are currently much more reliable using NNTP.

Are You using NetworkManager or you prefer static configuration in YaST ?

Also please check if You’ve got some DNS problems:


ping 8.8.4.4


cat /etc/resolv.conf

This commands checks your routing table :


route -n

I can ping normally to download.opensuse.org

Also I think I’m using YaST to configure the network.

By the way, yesterday everything worked fine…

There is a problem with the original OpenSuse-Server.
[opensuse-project] Re: bad news: download.opensuse.org lost its filesyst](http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-project/2012-04/msg00166.html)

So it might be a problem with the alternative one.

A coworker reported the same thing to me. I think this must be on
OpenSUSE’s side. I’ve also heard there were some disk issues recently
with the OpenSUSE Build Service so perhaps this is also related. I
believe it is known and being worked on as we type.

Good luck.

Everything is working now, it was a server issue.

I just want to ask, is there a way of checking the server status? So people can be sure it’s not a fault on their side

Two disks failed at the same time on download.opensuse.org, and they were unable
to recover without reloading the disks from scratch. nothing has been lost, but
it will take as long as a day to reload TB of data.

In the meantime, the IP number has been reassigned to a system of much lesser
power, thus it is likely being overloaded. At least it will be a stress test of
openSUSE.

That’s good to hear :slight_smile: well I don’t think it’s possible if You’re not the
admin of the server. Otherwise is everything else is working and problems
are with specific server there’s a high probability the problem is on the
server side but it’s just wild guessing.

You could also try tracerouting to the server and see where the packets
get lost but not all service providers allow traceroute to pass through.


Best regards,
Greg

Just read the announcements before asking. The problem was posted in
several places.

It would be quite a sensible idea to have a web-based status page
though. Our admins at work use SupportTrio, but I believe Nagios can
provide similar traffic light displays for particular services on
various hosts. It can show whether particular services on each host are
responding properly.

Yes, would be nice. Does it have security dangers? :-?

Hi
The build service offers a monitor;

If the dispatcher or publisher are having issues, things are not
good…

I run overlook wizard on my tablet which can be configured for
different things to look at on a website.
