Mageia forum

I have installed Mageia 4 in VMware Workstation.
I tried to update media.
I get this error message:

Can't add media, error reported:

...unsuccessful fetching: rsync unsuccessful: ended with 23
can't read distributionmedia (disn't find any media.cfg fil)

Media: distrib ()

What to do?

Remove your repos, and add them using a specific mirror. Please check our software management MAQeia for more information on software and package management.

The only repo that exist is Core DVD and Nonfree DVD

And? What about the suggestion from my last post?

If you tried the default mirrorlist, then it may have chosen one of the two Swedish mirrors:

http://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/mageia/

is still not fully updated. When Mageia 3 was released it took 3 days to fully sync.

http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/Linux/distributions/mageia/

Does not seem to be complete either, and seems to update very infrequently.

As doctor5000 recommended, it's best to choose a specific mirror, possibly one in Germany. Neither of the Swedish mirrors looks to me to be usable.
