Unable to download updates (curl error)

galliar · 01-29-2009, 06:48 PM

Hello,

On 3 systems with new OpenSuse 11.1 installations, when I try to update the system, the updates eventually fail with:

Download failed:
Download (curl) error for 'http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.1/rpm/x86_64/libtalloc1-32bit-3.2.4_3.2.6-5.2_0.3.1.x86_64.delta.rpm':
Error code: User abort
Error message: Connection time-out

These same systems have loaded several times in the past, and have not failed. Has something changed on the download servers? Are other people experiencing this?

Regards,

Randy.

It's the server. I find download.opensuse.org unreliable try one of these

http://ftp.oregonstate.edu/pub/opensuse/update/11.1/

http://opensuse.unixheads.net/update/11.1/

both are pretty fast
