[solved] Pacman Mirrorlist Generator misbehaving?

I picked Germany from http://www.archlinux.org/mirrorlist/ and got some leaseweb.net mirrors from US and the Netherlands too.

Why?
Picking other countries works as expected but I haven't tested them all.

(SOLVED) Pacman mirrorlist & DB Sync issue.

Hi, I messed with HDD through BSD and my HDD was wiped clean!(grr) anyways I reinstalled Arch with 2009.08 iso image. I've setup connections and enabled repos and updated mirrorlist. I can ping google and browse it through links. System behaves normally. But when I try to install/search ANY package, it says not found in SyncDB.
I've double checked the package names and also tried pacman -Syy, but still no joy
It says core,extra & community are up to date, but stilll wont find kde, apache, alsa-utils etc.. I have not modified pacman.conf in any way. Help!

Most likely, your mirror is out of synch. Look into your mirrorlist and determine the first enabled mirror from top of the file, then check against
https://users.archlinux.de/~gerbra/mirrorcheck.html
Pacman will pick the first mirror out of your list as long as it is reachable and if the mirror is out of synch, you won't get any updates.

[solved] pacman mirrorlist "directive 'x' not recognized"

I'm bungling through an install and tried using reflector to get speedier mirrors. Somehow I hosed myself, as when I checked mirrorlist it was blank(!), so I recopied the back-up to /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist. Now when I run pacman -Syy I get:
error: config file /etc/pacman.d/mirrolist, line 1: directive 'x' in repository section 'core' not recognized.
The a line saying the same holds true for extra and community. Then it tries to sync servers and says: failed to update core (no servers configured for repository), and again for extra and community. I tried to get openssh so I could go in remotely and copy the screen, but "no servers configured for repository."
Can anyone get me out of this can of worms?

x#Mirror used during installation
Server = http:/mirror.cs.vt.edu/pub/ArchLinux/$repo/os/i686
(Which now that i look at I recognize as the server i chose for the installation!)
Then, just the rest of the standard mirror list, and i uncommented the U.S. mirrors.

Pachorizon - Sort your pacman mirrorlist by distance

I'm behind a stupid firewall, and can't use ping, so can't use tools like rankmirrors. So I wrote a python script for sorting mirrors with nearest countries.
Usage:
Usage: pachorizon.py <country> <mirrorlist>
pachorizon.py list
pachorizon.py help
Example: pachorizon.py "Great Britain" /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Example output:

[SOLVED] Pacman strange behavior from last system upgrade

Hi,

[SOLVED] Pacman: slow sync with dlink dsl-2740b

Hi guys,
I've a very strange problem.
My pacman very slow when sync database with this router: dlink dsl-2740b.
That's not a pacman issue, but I hope you can tell me some option that I should modify into my router settings.
I'm using pacman 3.5.1 and I can't upgrade it.
I'm experiencing another issue: akregator slow fetch... only it, thunderbird fetch normally.
I hope this could help.
Obviously I've already tryed to change mirror in mirrorlist.

I don't think this is a mirror problem, because using other connection, and other router I don't have this problem...

Pacman mirrorlist

Hi,
I've a problem with pacman, it failed retrieving file from any mirror... first I had ftp://archlinux.puzzle.ch but once it doesn't work anymore, so I tried other mirrors in the mirrorlist sorted with rankmirrors. But with any mirror I've tested I received "error:failed retrieving file ''from core..... error:failed retrieving any db" when I try pacman -Syu or any pacman -S ...
What should I try to do?
Thanks for your help,
Sylvain
p.s here are copy of my pacman.conf and pacman.d/mirrorlist files:

Did you do
pacman -Syy
after you changed mirrors? As explained in the Beginner's Guide, this is necessary after changing mirrors in order for pacman to synch all databases.
Additionally, your mirrorlist looks strange. My mirrors look as follows:
Server = ftp://ftp.wh-stuttgart.net/archlinux/$repo/os/i686
Server = ftp://mirror.leaseweb.com/archlinux/$repo/os/i686
Server = ftp://ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de/pub/Mirr … po/os/i686
Server = ftp://ftp.surfnet.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr … po/os/i686
Server = ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/metalab/distribu … po/os/i686
Server = ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/archlinux/$repo/os/i686
Server = ftp://ftp.belnet.be/packages/archlinux/$repo/os/i686
Server = ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributio … po/os/i686
Server = ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/$repo/os/i686
The difference is, that you don't have the architecture in your paths (i686).

Sometimes I cannot get multilib either.

[eric@blackmesa pacman.d]$
I tried removing core.db from /var/lib/pacman/sync/ and I changed SigLevel to Never in pacman.conf. I've tried other keyservers, and I've tried different mirrors. I'm not sure what to do from this point. I need pacman to continue building my system, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks! I disabled IPv6, and everything works now.

[solved] pacman -Syy and -Syu work, but packages won't install

Hello, everyone. I'm really new to Arch, but I did search all over Google and the forums and couldn't find an answer to this, so I thought I'd ask the forums.
I just installed Arch, and I'm trying to install sudo.
When I run pacman -S sudo, I get:
sudo package not found, searching for group...
error: 'sudo': not found in syncdb
However, when I run pacman -Syy, I get:
::Synchronizing package databases...
error: failed retrieving file 'core.db.tar.gz' from mirrors.kernel.org: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
...(other similar errors from other mirrors)
core 4.1K 43.7K/s 00:00:00 [##########] 100%
...(same for extra and community)
(Sorry I didn't copy the entire output out, I'm not connected to the internet on the Arch computer, so I'm typing this by hand on another one. I tried a bunch of mirrors earlier, and only one mirror actually works: the Arch one, which as a download cap.)
So my package databases are getting updated, but somehow pacman isn't recognizing them or something.
I updated pacman to see if that would work.
pacman -V
Pacman v3.3.3 - libalpm v4.0.3
It didn't.
I'm running 2.6.33-ARCH according to lib/modules.
I haven't changed my etc/pacman.conf. [core] and its Include, [extra] and its Include, and [community] and its Include are all uncommented. No packages are ignored.
My etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist was updated from the Arch Mirror Generator. I uncommented everything in United States.
I have internet set up, and I've tried taking down wlan0 and putting it back up. iwconfig shows that wlan0 works and is connected, and I'm pinging google.com successfully, so I know internet works.
Thanks in advance for any help, and please let me know if I'm missing any information. I tried to be thorough.

[SOLVED]Pacman don't want to update on Bash!

Hello,
I got a strange problem by updating my system. When I give the update command in a GNOME terminal Pacman gives the following:

Could someone help me, so that I can update on a Bash terminal?

Hello,
The strange thing is only, that it seems that pacman under X got another mirror then pacman under Bash. I think that is the reason for the different outputs. Is there some way to let pacman use the same mirror under X an bash? Because it's seems that pacman under Bash uses an old and unchanged version of my mirrorlist. Here is my mirrorlist:

[SOLVED] Pacman won't update and hangs

Hey,
After logging in a while ago I found out that pacman hangs in a very weird way.
Don't mind the czech locale, the output should be pretty clear anyway.

[root@meph-ntb meph]#
Seems alright. But then...
[root@meph-ntb meph]# pacman -Syy
:: Synchronizuje se databáze balíčků...
And hangs here. Every other attempt at -Syy hangs like this, until next reboot. And after the reboot it again seems alright at first, but 2nd and every other attempt hangs.
Pacman -Syu behaves in a similar way. First time after reboot it does sync the database and then hangs when it says retrieving packages. When I try again, it hangs on database sync.
Tried changing mirror (long shot, I know), didn't help. Even tried without X running, didn't work. Also pacman.log is clear.
Any ideas?
EDIT: pacman --debug -Syu

I don't know why, but the problem seems to be gone after a few hours. I didn't change mirrorlist, and it hasn't changed since last time the update worked fine either. I'm still curious what caused the problem, but can't think of a way to find out.

I can't see anything suspicious (except that I still need to set up Reflector, but that's another issue, it's a fresh install). Anyway, sorry for the false alarm.

[SOLVED] Empty mirrorlist + Pacman Syy fails

Hi everyone. New Archer, messed with Archbang a little before but it was close without quite suiting my tastes... I've now got a vanilla Arch install with Awesome installed and thus far I've been loving it for the most part. My main issue is that I seem to have broken Pacman... somehow. First I had packages that seemed clearly out of date- Firefox reads as 3.6.3 instead of Firefox 4, Python isn't the version in the repos, and so forth. Then I had difficulties installing things that are clearly in there, such as LibreOffice. And now I just can't do a Pacman -Syy at all, no matter what mirrors I enable. The best I was able to get before were sets of updates that were all 4K or 4.1K before... now it's just not updating the package databases at all, and they seem to be blank, given that I can't install anything, or re-install things the system knows are there. I've searched both Google and the forums to find an answer, and I can't seem to get it; apologies if the answer is already documented, but I couldn't find it. If the answer's not already in the Wiki, I'd be more than willing to update it after my finals week is over.
Anyway, here's all the relevant information on my system that I can think of. First, the output of Pacman -Syy:

[SOLVED] Pacman "config file could not be read" error during Arch ins

I've been attempting to get Arch setup for a while now, and after having some trouble with partitions, my wireless connecting, and setting up repos and mirrors, which the Wiki helped me solve, I've hit a bigger bump. While updating the system using pacman as the Beginners Guide says to do, I get errors when I try to continue the update process as follows :
btw: I'm typing this on a laptop next to my computer
[root@McArch~]# pacman -Syu
error: config file /etc/pacman.d/core could not be read
error: config file /etc/pacman.d/extra could not be read
error: config file /etc/pacman.d/community could not be read
:: Synchronizing package databases . . .
error: failed to updated core (unexpected error)
error: failed to updated extra (unexpected error)
error: failed to updated community (unexpected error)
error: failed to synchronize any databases
Any tips as to whats going on? I've tried to created said files, and even insert mirrors into the file, like in the /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist file but this doesn't seem to help

Glad you got it working.
I'm not sure what happened in your install but I just finished using an old 2007.08 iso and pacman first starts out with /etc/pacman.d/core, etc/pacman.d/extra, /etc/pacman.d/community ... etc., but I never had your problem when I did the #pacman -Syu after initial install reboot. The pacman update removes the above mentioned repos and replaces them with a single /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist. You must have messed up an initial config file somehow as I couldn't get the same errors you got. It looks like you had your /etc/pacman.conf file messed up somehow and when you pointed it to the mirrorlist it could finally work properly. I'll just include my /etc/pacman.conf file and /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist so you can compare. NB* these are from my x86_64 so for 32 bit machines i686 would replace x86_64 in the files.

Well it was an interesting way to kill 30+ minutes.

[SOLVED] pacman -Sy failing with Invalid URL Scheme

I'm getting a comparable pair of lines for each combination of database (core, extra, etc.) and mirror (rankmirrors-generated mirrorlist):
error: url 'http://mirror.rit.edu/archlinux/core/os … .db.tar.gz' is invalid
debug: returning error 43 from download_internal : Invalid URL scheme
Yesterday I did pacman -Sy followed by pacman -Qu then pacman -Su all successfully.
Any thoughts/help?
UPDATE: re-installing pacman's dependencies learned via "pacman -Qi pacman" fixed the problem.

Comment out that mirror and try the next one.

[SOLVED] Pacman not working after updating.

While I'm trying to resolve issue "package-query: requires pacman<3.6", I did wrong that entering "pacman-key --init" right after upgrading pacman. Now it neither upgrade nor install programs.
