I’m trying to follow the above howto, but when I try to run the “zypper refresh -r PTA” line, I get the following;-
Retrieving repository ‘PTA’ metadata [error]
Repository ‘PTA’ is invalid.
|] Repository type can’t be determined.
Please check if the URIs defined for this repository are pointing to a valid repository.
Skipping repository ‘PTA’ because of the above error.
Could not refresh the repositories because of errors.
Which version of openSUSE do you use and what does the output of
zypper lr -d
show (please post it). It will list your repositories with their URL so that
we can see what PTA is on your machine.

Note if you put your code here on the board with code tags you will not get the full code not abbreviated stuff that we can not read. You can get the tags by going to advanced mode or placing tag] /tag] around the text where tag is code.

Beside that it simply looks as if you used a crippled url for this repository. Check where you had that link originally from and correct it, otherwise you can only do what gogalthorp told you - remove the repo.

Thanks for the tip, gogalthorp, I’ll keep it in mind if there’s a next time. I don’t do much posting, so I don’t know all the ins and outs.
