Package Manager Errors

There seems to be a problem with my automatic updates. I get popup error messages.
Package Manager: A mirror is possibly broken. I can’t seem to locate where I need to make changes to correct the problem. What application controls this.
Thank you

But you can browse the net?

Go to Yast > Software > Online Update

What happens

I can browse the internet. When I go to Online Update, I don’t see anything that is available. But yesterday I updated several items from the Available list. How do I check or set the mirrors.
Thank you

KPackageKit downloads both security and update patches. When you open Online Update, it only shows security packages. To get update packages, you need to go to View and open the Repositories tab. Then with System selected go to Packages>All in this list>Update if update available (or something like that).

I think my problem is that the subscription for updates seems to have expired. Do I need to update this.
Thank you

In openSUSE there is no such thing. In SLES, yes, it is possible.

What version do you have?

Of what.

If it is openSUSE, there are no more updates. EOL.

If it is SLES 11, SP 1, then you need a “subscription”. Pay.

It’s openSUSE 11.1, I guess I should update to 11.4.

Yes indeed
Backup and do a new install
