edwardp Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 I just tried to update my software and discovered that it could not download the synthesis.hdlist.cz file. I then FTP'd to the mirror (in the U.S.) to discover that the 10.0, 2006.0 and 2007.0 directories were gone (not found). I checked another U.S. mirror to find the same thing. Does anyone know what may have happened??? I also checked one of the European mirrors and all of the directories (including updates) were there.

tyme Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 who knows...might be a restructuring of the directories, might be a problem with the server that those mirrors sync to...i haven't heard anything from mandriva so :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardp Posted November 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 I took a look at the Mandriva Free and One download pages, the mirrors where the directories disappeared, are not currently under the U.S. list of mirrors on either page, at this time, but I do not know if the listing is something that updates automatically or is updated manually. In any event, the current listing shows only six mirrors in the U.S., there had been quite a bit more prior to this. Whatever the cause is, I hope it's only temporary.

dexter11 Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Another thing about the mirrors: main/backports, contrib/backports, contrib/testing and contrib/updates are up and running now on the servers. There are a few things in them yet if they're not empty but with time they will fill up. Hopefully Beryl will find its way there soon. http://www.happyassassin.net/2006/10/31/ba...n-for-business/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 Mine are still in sync, I have a private mirror with main/contrib/updates and they are still there, so they didn't get deleted overnight when my job ran at 4am to sync any changes. I'm currently in sync with a US mirror, was using a UK one until recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardp Posted November 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 I changed the mirror used in the Control Panel to one (in the U.S.) that is presently current. Other update mirrors that I have looked at (both in the U.S. and in Europe) have not received updates at least going back to mid-October.
