Pacman doesn't work after fresh install

Hi everyone, I just installed archlinux on my very old 400Mhz Dell Latitude, but now pacman won't do anything, I can't sync, I can't install anything, ... The install did have some issues, but I'm not sure if that is causing this
The output from 'pacman -Sy'
:: Synchronizing package databases...
error: failed to synchronize core:
error: failed to synchronize extra:
error: failed to synchronize commutity:
error: failed to synchronize any databases
The pacman log doesn't say anything interesting, the configs look okay. That output is spit out rather quickly too, I'm not sure if it's even trying to use the internet (which is working)
Can you help me?

    Hi -
    I was wondering if you solved this problem. I had the exact same issue on Win2K after I installed the Java Portlet Development Kit. Now my Apache JServ does not work.
    This is a sample of my error_log:
    [Fri Jun 07 10:48:01 2002] [notice] FastCGI: process manager initialized
    [Fri Jun 07 10:48:08 2002] [error] OPM:Can not find one alive process

    [Fri Jun 07 10:51:22 2002] [warn] OPM: ADM: Process 380 terminated using SIGTERM successfully
    I have re-checked my jserv.properties, jserv.conf, zone.properties several times and I can't see the problem. I tried to manually remove the entire PDK and go back to my original state (I saved a copy of all my config files) but it still doesn't work.
    Did you find a way to fix this?
    Thanks!!!

  • Can't get eth0 to work after fresh install .

    I just finished installing Arch; everything went well, with the exception of Networking .
    When booting into the new system and logging in as root, I did ping www.google.com and the output was like 70+ tries at receiving data from google, although it did manage to find out gogole's IP address .
    This is my Networking section, omitting the commented lines :
    HOSTNAME="computer"
    interface=eth0
    address=
    netmask=
    gateway=
    NETWORK_PERSIST="no"
    *EDIT*
    After posting this, I thought maybe I should try and see if pacman works, and I was able to properly -Syy and -Syu .
    I also checked that "network" was in the rc.conf DAEMONS line .
    ping still doesn't work, but I will try going on with the post-install configurations .

  • Spotlight not working after fresh install of Mac OS X

    Hi,
    I have erased and installed the Mac OS X on my powerbook and spotlight is not working. I have tried almost all the solutions provided on the forum.
    I have tried adding the root drive to the privacy section of the spotlight preferences but it doesn't list the drive at all.
    I have tried using spotless, Yasu, Cache out X, deleted the spotlight.plist file
    Nothing works! It should be working after a fresh install. My computer just came back after a hard drive replacement and the spotlight wasn't working even then. I thought a fresh install of the OS would help, but can't get it to work.
    Can anynody suggest anything? Your help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Aditya

    Hi Tom,
    Thanks for the reply and the link.
    I re-installed the OS again! This time using the UNIX file system setting during installation. Then when I booted my computer, Spotlight worked like a dream. But then I connected my external firewire hard disk and it stopped working!
    Is there a work around for this, can I get spotlight to work again?
    Thanks,
    Aditya

  • AirPort doesn't work after Leopard install

    I have an iMac 20" 2GHz Core 2 Duo and my AirPort doesn't work. I reset my PRAM, erased the hard drive and installed a clean copy of Leopard after picking it up from the Retail store. I had exactly the same problem with 9A559 and the seed update and I ASSUMED it would be fixed by the time the final release is out. It doesn't detect any networks, even if i move the access point very close to the computer. I tried disabling all security on the access point. Tried changing channels. Tried resetting the access point to defaults and reconfiguring from scratch. Tried manually putting the SSID in on the iMac but none of it worked. The access point is a Linksys WAG54G with the latest firmware. If anyone can help me, please do because the AirPort is the ONLY way this computer can access the internet.

    Just to clarify my situation:
    Erase and install of Leopard
    Airport card is detected:
    Wireless Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x14E4, 0x89)
    Wireless Card Locale: Worldwide
    Wireless Card Firmware Version: Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (4.170.25.10)

  • Sync doesn't work after re-install

    ''locking this thread as duplicate, please continue at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1015872 /questions/1015872]''
    I had sync working on my windows machine, and firefox was always up to date.
    After re-installing windows I connected to my Sync straight away account and nothing is updating, no bookmarks, history, passwords, nothing.
    No, I haven't upgraded to a new sync or old sync or anything like that, i didn't even know there were different ones. How do I get my data back and sync working again?

    Sync isn't meant to be used as a backup device, but merely to sync data between multiple devices.
    So it is not guaranteed that you can restore data from the Sync server.

  • Touch doesn't work after clean install of Windows 7 Professional

    I have an IQ526t.  I did a clean  install (remove drive/repartition/format drive) of Windows 7 Professional, and now the touchscreen feature doesn't work.  I've been on forums here and at Mirosoft, downloaded various drivers, rebooted multiple times, etc....no luck.  I get the sound, but no response.   Thoughts???

    Hello bmarkj,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I understand that you have removed the recovery drive and installed Windows 7 by not using the OEM version that came with your computer. You have a couple options here, first you can download and install the HP Support Assistant and let it download and install the software and drivers that came with your computer. You can alter the settings so that the updates are manually done giving you control over what gets updated and what does not. Or you can download and install the drivers and what software you want from HP TouchSmart IQ526t CTO Desktop PC Drivers page. The choice is yours.
    ***NOTE: Be warned that there is software that come with some of the computers that is ONLY available from the recovery drive so you may not see everything you are used to seeing. The only way of recoverying this software is through the HP Recovery Discs.
    I hope I have addressed your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Microsoft Update doesn't work after fresh System Restore

    I installed a new hard drive (WD Scorpio Black, 750gb) in my Pavillion DV6-2150US and used the original HP disks to do a clean Windows 7 install.  Now that I have installed the OS, the Windows update process doesn't work properly, and won't download updates.  As a result, I can't install the Service Pack, etc.
    I've tried the Microsoft troubleshooting steps for addressing the Windows Update issue, and they don't correct the problem.  ervices" says the Windows Update service is running, but when I try to run Microsoft Update, I get the message the service isn't running.
    I have tried the install from two different sets of HP disks, as well as the recovery disks I made when the computer was new.  I get the same results each time.
    Any thoughts as to what might be going on?

  • The 7 key doesn't work after lion install

    The 7 key on my MacBook pro keyboard doesn't work following lion installation. (I'm using my iPad right now obviously!)
    When I press 7, basically random stuff will come out. A set of 3 to 5 random numbers or some "command" that whatever program I am in doesn't recognize. 
    I tried rebooting. I have no idea where to even begin, help!

    And of course this morning all keys are back to working again! But last night it was 7, J, U gibberish.
    At first glance it does seem like something that might be a hardware problem, but I am deeply suspicious of coincidences like this. I'm kind of like house md that way I guess.  Especially when at least two of us experienced this.
    I think I will also wait for the next software update and see if that helps.  At least I have my iPad to use when the keys are on the fritz.
    Good luck!

  • Problem with MTRR - X doesn't start after fresh install

    Hi all!
    I have a big problem with MTRR, i think...
    My PC Specs: P4 3GHZ with HT "prescot", Asus P4S800D-X, ATI x1650 Pro, 1024MB Ram Dual Channel, etc...
    I can't start the X system. When i try to try the new Xorg.conf, the X seems to start but the screen stays blank and sometimes can i go back to TTY and sometimes not...
    I've tryed with the following drivers and no luck.
    - Vesa: Blank Screen, sometimes keyboard works and sometimes not.
    - RadeonHD: The same...
    - Radeon (or ati): The same...
    At the end of the Xorg.0.log, i see the MTRR problem. the memory from the VGA Card is not detected automatically. The "cat /proc/mtrr" differs from ubuntu 8.04, when the X server works correctly.
    Ive been reading a lot in google and others forum and see a lots of tricks related to MTRR (but im not completly sure of that's the problem...) but every trick i try doesn't seems to work.
    I tryed the following tricks:
    - Adding the memory to /proc/mtrr manually = Added correctly but NO LUCK
    - Activate/Deactivate HotPlugging = NO LUCK
    - Adding to my boot line the "nopat" and "enable_mtrr_cleanup = MTRR keeps showing wrong memory (no video memory)
    - After adding correctly the memory to MTRR  try the xorg.conf but blank screen (i dunno if xorg rewrites the mtrr when run)
    - Some others tricks i cant remember...
    Also, with the radeonhd, i get this errors in xorg.0.log:
    - rhdAtomgetDDCIndex: GPIO_DDC Index 14 exceeds maximum 5
    - RHDCSStop: Command Submission backen is not active!
    - error setting MTRR ( base... blablabla) Invalid argument (22)
    That's not my first install, but i can't make it work. As i readed, it's a kernel problem related to 2.6.29, in 2.6.28 there's no problem but i dont have access to the old kernel.
    Can someone help my or i need to wait for a new kernel release to use Arch?
    Bye!

    I can't solve your problem, but I can help you work around it by downgrading if nobody else can figure it out.
    You can find old packages here at the Arch Rollback Machine project repo someone thankfully keeps running,
    http://arm.nrk.cc/
    Just go to 'core' and get the package(s) you need and downgrade. There is also a thread on here somewhere about setting up pacman.conf to point to a specific date with ARM if you don't want to get individual stuff manually, but just doing it individually would probably be easier, as I don't expect the kernel has too many other things you need

  • Safari doesn't work after Yosemite install

    I've recently installed Yosemite in my iMac*. Everything works as supposed except for Safari. Every time the computer wakes from sleep Safari does NOT work at all. It doesn't load any site. The only solution so far is to restart the iMac.
    any clues?
    * 27-inch, Late 2009, 2.66 GHz Intel Core i5, 16 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • ITunes has stopped working after fresh install

    Hey there,

    I have already tried the following:
    - Uninstalling iTunes and all the components and reinstalling iTunes
    - Uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling in Safe Mode (wouldn't work)
    - Downloading iTunes for slower video cards and installing that (didn't work)
    - Downloading an older version of iTunes (would just rollback during install and not let it complete)
    - Tried a different user on my system and also didn't work
    Any help is appreciated. I love using this product and would like to continue using it.

    also when I open itunes in safemode (using shift+ctrl), it works normally...

  • Auto Login Doesn't Work After Re-Install

    Visited bad link within Facebook! Thereafter, forced to re-install Firefox -- from scratch!! Saved a few of the profile files like bookmarks, passwords, but no extension stuff. Re-installed FireFox after deleting ALL tracks I could find in Program Files, Program Files (x86), and Windows 7 Pro profile.
    On visiting a page requiring login, Firefox populates the userid & password properly. BUT, it doesn't start the login. Formerly, this was essentially a background process and not really visible to me. Now, we stop at the page demanding credentials and click the "login" button.
    I have "IE VIEW", "NOSCRIPT", and "ADBLOCK PLUS". ALL of my plugins are in "Ask to Activate" mode.
    I have enabled extensions: "ADOBE ACROBAT - Create PDF 1.2" and "Trend Micro NSC FireFox Extension 5.82.0.1056".
    I'd surely like to get FireFox to working as it previously did. I just don't know where to look/tweak!
    Thanks,
    WLPeavy

  • To Apple engineers: Home sharing and wifi sync not working after fresh install

    Have been using wifi sync and home sharing on my Macbook 5,1 since its early debut.
    Since Macbook 5,1 is old i am using it to stream MP4 files to my Apple TV.
    The functionality has been working fine throughout the OSX iterations; then came Mavericks.
    Now my iTunes library will not sync with Apple TV3, nor will my iPhone 5/iPad 3 wirelessly sync with my iTunes library.
    For some reason since upgrading to Mavericks the thing wont work under normal boot.
    Restarting in Safe mode solves the problem. Assuming it was some erroneous configuration i went through troubleshooting steps to try and resolve it.
    First i uninstalled any third party apps.
    Then i repaired, went through Maintenance and Cleaning of the system using Onyx
    Then i tried manually removing third party boot kexts from the System Library and user Library
    Then i tried reinstalling OSX via the recovery partition (cmd+r on boot time)
    Finally i tried a full system erase and reinstall via an external bootable Mavericks USB.
    After all these steps the problem persists.
    There should be no hardware failure since it works fine in Safe mode and doing a clean install verifies that there are no third party conflicts with the system since iTunes was executed immediately after booting up for the first time.
    This raises the concern that there seems to be some sort of system kext misconfiguration by the Apple engineers.
    When executing iTunes the following errors are being displayed in the system log (via Console):

    I hope someone came across a similar issue and has some light to shed on the matter.
    This has been ongoing since Mavericks came out.

  • Sound on OS X doesn't work after Soundflower install

    Because of missing native equalizer on OS-X (Snow Leopard) I had to use third party app Soundflower in combination with AU Lab. Everything was going right, but once I restarted OS X, the sound stopped working. When I changed the volume by the keys on Macbook I hear the system sound, but in iTunes, Vimeo, some videos on YouTube, Quicktime, etc., I hear nothing.
    I tried to remove Soundflower and AU Lab and reboot, but without any change.
    After next OS X restart iTunes works right - I hear the sound. On some videos on YouTube sounds works too, but not on all videos. Vimeo videos still without sound.
    Does anybody know how to fix this problem?

    I tried to remove Soundflower and AU Lab and reboot, but without any change.
    Did you also remove the plist files of those files from your Home Preferences folder?  And restart afterwards? 
    Repair permissions & restart.
