repo error on local source.

I am recovering from having to replace my motherboard. In the process I removed the windows drive that was the first boot device and bumped all my drives up one SATA connector. I got my bootloader issue solved etc and all remaining drives mounted properly again.

Now I have this error when the software updater runs, when I try to access the software installer or running zypper.

What is the solution? This seems to be a local file.

KDE 3.5 on openSUSE 11.1

Would syncing the databases fix this?

When I try to manually run the updater I get this

Found the solution. When I reordered the hard drives in this machine it left the updater and software manager looking for the wrong drive. I had to go into the repo manager and “edit” that entry and select the right drive/partition from the drop down in the edit menu. It all is working again. I should have tagged this better in case someone ever searches for it.
