Suse11.4 x86_64 Update Failiing

Hi,

When I run the YAST Online Update OR Software Management OR Zypper, the Updates (or install of new software) fails when the download of the Delta RPM reaches 98%.

I have added ALL of the community repositories and have Imported the appropriate certificates.

When watching the DeltaRPM or normal RPM download, it starts the download at approx. 4Mbs/sec until it reaches 98% of file downloaded. Then, the speed drops to 0 B/sec and the file download fails. This then prompts a Retry which again fails when it reaches approx 98% download.

It does not matter if I am doing an Online Update, Doing a Software Management (to install new software) or using Zypper in a Terminal session, the result is the same.

I have even gone so far as to connect the machine DIRECTLY to the internet, bypassing all firewalls so as to ensure it is not a firewall issue.

Thanks

Hey Brad, welcome here.

That’s far too many repos. Why did you do that? It’s the cause of the trouble you’re experiencing. Stick to these four repos:
OSS
Non-OSS
Update
Packman
The only one I could think of that could be added would be the repo for your videocard if ATI or NVIDIA.

I don’t know how far you got, how often you tried and what did succeed and what didn’t. If this is the result immediately after installing and you have not yet been able to make any alterations to the install, then remove all repo entries except for those mentioned. If you already performed “upgrades”, reinstall and enable only the mentioned repos.

Hi, I removed all but the 4 Repo’s and tried again. I got the exact same result…except it failed at 26% of the download this time instead of 98% !!
I am logged in as “Root” so there should be NO issues with respect to su or sudo.
