[SOLVED] Unable to add repositories

Postby Codalunga » Oct 30th, '12, 21:58

Hi!
Right now I've got just the 'update" repo activated. When I try to add a new repository via MCC, I get an error about aria2 with error code 4. It also tells me there's no meda.cfg file. What's the matter?
Thanks a lot guys :D

Hello,
Probably a problem with your selected server.
Try to change it :
MCC/software management/Configure media sources for install.../File (in the menu)/add a specific media mirror/Full set of sources/Yes
Chose a mirror in your country.

There's currently a hardware problem with one of our Tier1 mirrors, distrib-coffee.
So all mirrors that sync from that one are broken currently: http://mirrors.mageia.org/
Just pick another one.

Unfortunately, no server where I live but choosing another one from a near country solved the issue ;)
Thanks again!
