Problem with Repos

Postby car_96 » Jun 21st, '11, 05:33

Hi Mageia comunity, i'm Carlos, i live in México, and I don't have a perfect english ('cuse i'm 15 years old boy).
Well, my problem is:

Code: Select all
No se puede añadir medio, errores reportados:

no se puede interpretar media.cfg

Medio: distrib ()


This message appears when I add a repository, I am translating from google tradocutor of these lines, it is possible that this very, very wrong, but I hope to help me

Maybe you forgot to translate this: :)

Code: Select all
Unable to add medium, errors reported:

can not be interpreted media.cfg

Medium: distrib ()


It would be important to know which mirror you used, and how you tried to setup the repos.
From mageia control center, or with urpmi in a terminal?

Hi,
It looks like your connexion failed. I tried and my message was: no file media.cfg found

Carlos,

Welcome to the Mageia Forum :) ,

For me, when the media runs with errors, I remove them and I add again.

You can try to see if the tips in MageiaBrasil Wiki help you: "Install media - Software Repository in Mageia" (english, in portuguese and in espanhol)

You mean you remove the repos, and then add them again? Reinstall sounds not so promising ;)
