I am just putting one error message as it is same for the rest of all other packages. You see as above in firefox one package is pending, balance got downloaded yesterday. Similar happened in polkit-gnome gvfs . Whereas for opera and pm-utils upower nothing got downloaded at all.
In all the 4 cases i got the same error with no downloads or partial downloads .
Now these mirrors have been fast and best for me uptil now and no issue with them.
So basically what these error is and what i should do about the same to complete the installation.

Have you done pacman -Sy lately?  It may be that your database is not in sync with the mirrors, so it is trying to retrieve package versions that aren't there.
Edit: I was too slow...
i have done the pacman -Syu just a week back and everything is uptodate.
@tomk
Short answer: pacman -Syu, not pacman -S.
Secondly do you install firefox or any other package with pacman -Syu firefox or pacman -S [packagename] ????
i have atleast so far installed everrything with pacman -S packagename
this is what the pacman wiki says
Installing specific packages
To install a single package or list of packages (including dependencies), issue the following command:
# pacman -S package_name1 package_name2 ...
lastly i solved the problem and the installation went right by unchecking a few more mirrors and the same went alright now.
So for the moment i am labelling the query as solved.
Thanks.

  • [SOLVED] Error 404 in phpMyAdmin since update to Apache 2.4

    Hi!
    I had an error 404 when I was trying to access pma. I resolved my problem by creating a symbolic link like this:
    /srv/http$ sudo ln -s /usr/share/webapps/phpMyAdmin/ phpmyadmin
    It works now... but I don't know if it is the right solution to do this.
    I haven't seen any reference to a symbolic link in the wiki, but if I just follow the wiki, I get the error 404.
    How did you solve it?
    Last edited by Creak (2014-03-27 01:10:19)

    Ok I'm really sorry, I did follow the wiki article by the book, but it happens that I added a "#", in httpd.conf, at the beginning of the line that loads the httpd-phpmyadmin.conf... (facepalm)
    It was probably during the merges of httpd.conf.pacnew.
    But thanks Tarqi, it's your answer that made me wonder because I knew the alias was already in the phpmyadmin conf file

  • [Solved]Error with installing package: /usr/lib64 exists in filesystem

    So i know there are other posts about this and i have read them and I have also read the wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/De … _in_.2Flib and also this forum post https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=156942
    the error i get when trying to install a package from the AUR
    error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
    hp-health: /usr/lib64 exists in filesystem
    Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
    I tried to find who owned the files/package in the /lib by the following commands
    $ grep '^lib/' /var/lib/pacman/local/*/files
    $ find /lib -exec pacman -Qo -- {} +
    the output was
    /lib is owned by filesystem 2015.02-1
    Im confused what to do at this point as the wiki that I linked above says
    If any package apart from glibc is listed as owning a file, that package needs to be updated to install its files in /usr/lib
    Last edited by PigsInSpace (2015-03-01 02:25:24)

    You are following directions for a file conflict with /lib for a very specific one-time manual intervention, but you don't have that file conflict according to the error message you posted and it is not for that intervention.  See this instead: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … 9.22_error then report the error on the aur page for that package.
    This fixes it:
    package() {
    cd "$srcdir"
    + mv usr/lib64 usr/lib
    cp -a opt usr var "$pkgdir"

  • [SOLVED]Error during "Install packages"

    Was really hoping it'd be a long time before I had to come here for help (my first Linux install), but...
    I'm having trouble with the installation. The first clue is when I'm preparing the hard drive:
    After manually configuring the block devices, filesystems and mountpoints, there's a "Mount" window saying "Error mounting /dev/sdb4 on /mnt/home", likewise for var and /, but otherwise completes successfully.
    Then, during package installation, every single package fails:
    e.g. "warning: warning given when extracting usr/share/zoneinfo/GMTO (Can't create '/mnt/usr......')"
    .... (other files unsuccessfully being extracted)
    Installation failed
    and so on for the rest of the packages.
    My source is the official 2011.08 core image on a flash drive (/dev/sda1/) writing to an external hdd (/dev/sdb1, etc). I've searched the forums and the wiki and google but haven't been able to figure it out. Somehow the partitions aren't accessible to pacman, perhaps?
    Hopefully I'm not missing something really obvious...

  • How to solve the 404 error

    Hi,
    How to catch or solve the 404 error in application.
    Some time we are giving some file name but that file is not avialable at that time it will give 404 error. how to avoid this error.
    If 404 error comes i want call some other file. Is it posible.
    Thanks Advance.

    Yes, this is because IE 5.5 (?) and higher have this wacky "Show friendly HTTP error messages" setting. You can disable this by going to tools -> internet options -> advanced and unchecking "Show friendly HTTP error messages". However as the default IE setting has "Show friendly HTTP error messages" enabled this isn't a good solution.
    I believe that if your error page is less than a certain size (in bytes) then IE defaults to it's own error page when "Show friendly HTTP error messages" are enabled. This size is something like 512 bytes or fewer in length.
    So basically try making your error page larger (more than 512 bytes in size) and see if that works.
