Repositories broken?

English Applications
1

My system did some manditory updates this evening - I then went to
install a program and YaST came back with
Download failed, file/content not found on media
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/10.3:/standard/

If I go to http:// download etc etc there is no “standard” directory
there only a ‘testing’ one

same for the Main Repository (non-OSS)I get an error but if I browes
there there it data in that directory…

Something broken?

HI, I’ve just browsed to the first one, which takes me to ‘Index of
/distribution/10.3/repo/oss’
(http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.3/repo/oss/), which is
working now.

New updates and did as you suggested and I’m back, corruption on my part
as no one else seemed to have a problem? (flaky install? I am running
pretty old hardware…)

Thanks…

I added that repo from command line; but when I did zypper ref, I got the following error and backtrace:

This is kind of random of you posting this:

You don’t say what version of Suse you are using and why you thought
you needed to add this repo. A little more info and an idea of what you
are trying to achieve please :slight_smile:

Have you tried Yast from the GUI or can’t you do that. Force a
re-install of zypper packages.

or do

sudo rpmdb --rebuilddb

then
zypper dup

When I try graphical Yast, it hangs up. Thats why I switched to command line. I have tried a re-install of zypper packages and Yast packages. No success so far.

Hi
Try changing to a mirror close to you, I find the redirector can be a
bit flakey at times. If you look at the right there is a mirror link
use the main URL from here.
