[SOLVED]update fails

[nigelc]

I have a new system that fails on an update.
The os was installed by someone else.

Code: Select all


    $MIRRORLIST: media/core/updates/firefox-24.5.0-1.mga4.x86_64.rpm
Installation failed, bad rpms:                                                 
    http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/mageia/distrib/4/x86_64/media/core/updates/firefox-24.5.0-1.mga4.x86_64.rpm

Try to continue anyway? (y/N)


It also fails on this:

Code: Select all

urpmi chromium-browser-stable


    $MIRRORLIST: media/core/updates/chromium-browser-stable-34.0.1847.116-2.mga4.x86_64.rpm

Installation failed, bad rpms:

Try to continue anyway? (y/N)

Have you tried a different mirror?

can be set up in MCC=>software tab => configure media sources / file tab/add a specific mirror

Thank you that seems to have fixed it.

Hi,
I seem to get various errors . Which mirrors should be enabled?
Is there something wrong with this?

Is there too many mirrrors?

[benmc]

I'm going with a yes on that.

you will have to remove the superfluous ones either from MCC => software management: configure media...., one at a time,
or if you are comfortable with CLI you could try as root somthing like " urpmi.removemedia -a "
you will then have to add your mirror repositories again

You can actually select more then one in mcc and remove it too.
