Repository Problems

D3nnis · February 1, 2009, 9:29am

Hello all,
i use openSuSE 10.3 and i added following Repositories into YaST, but they dont work:

Index of /repositories/devel:/languages:/perl/openSUSE_10.3
Index of /repositories/Mono/openSUSE_10.3

The Mono Repository says “Parse Error” when trying to Update / Install new Software and the Perl one says “Invalid version/release: perl-Class-Adapter”

And also the Zope Repository just gives back a white Page. Is that an error with me or with the repository. What can i do in order to fix that?

hmm if you did it through yast it should work…
if manualy it might not
try disabling them and going to the site for it

What you mean? I wanted to install with YaST Function, but then while reading the caches, the errors occurs. How can i do it manually, or what do you mean with visiting the Site?

Visiting the Site with Zope wont work, because it is just white.

Hi
It may be the redirector (download.opensuse.org) that is sending you
too a suspect/incomplete mirror hence your issue. Find a list of mirror
sites and select this and enter as a replacement for
download.opensuse.org.

sorry i mean if activated through yast it should work
im on wii so explain later

The Repositories are activated.
I already tried several other Mirrors with the same Versions of these Repositories, but they all seemed to be mirrored of the opensuse one and give the same failures.
Also funny is, that zope seems to be, eh, destroyed. If i search for Zope in any Search Engine, i get a white page. If i directly go to Zopes Page i get a white page, if i look on the opensuse mirror for zope i get a white page. What the hell? Nya, Zope is not important to me, but Mono and Perl is and i need the actualised Version. There might is an other repository for the two, maybe with perl 5.10?

Hi
Weird… well you should be able to get all your requirements here by
selecting 10.3 in the dropdown
Get It

Same Errors, they do not work at all.
Seems like a destroyed repository, beacuse i tried on three diffrent Servers from three diffrent Providers, all with SuSE 10.3, but it dont work.

Hi
What happens if you click on the file you want, does it download? Can
you give an example of a file you are wanting to download?

Yes it downloads, but in YaST Repositories it says the error, and so i cant upgrade to the new file, because its not shown because of the error.

Hi
You could try from the CLI (10.3 has zypper?)


zypper ref
zypper lu
zypper up

The first command refreshes the repositories, the second lists any
updates, the third will apply the updates.

Else have a look here
Getting
Started with openSUSE the section about package management cleanup
