OK we have been seeing reports of this problem but never enough data to pin down what of many problems it could be. Patrick Uiterwijk has written a script which if people could check and run it will help us greatly. The code is at https://github.com/puiterwijk/check_metalink and looks to require the python-request-ftp module which isn't in EPEL but is in Fedora 21->22 [This is mainly to check ftp hosts.. if you only care about http.. don't worry] On EL-6, EL-7 systems: sudo yum install python-virtualenv virtualenv venv; source venv/bin/activate; pip install requests requests-ftp mkdir home cd home git clone g...@github.com:puiterwijk/check_metalink.git cd check_metalink On Fedora-21+ systems: git clone g...@github.com:puiterwijk/check_metalink.git cd check_metalink python ./check_metalink -v -v -v --repo=epel-7 --arch=x86_64 --check-master &> master-out.txt python ./check_metalink -v -v -v --repo=epel-7 --arch=x86_64 --check-mirrors &> mirror-out.txt The output should help us figure out why we aren't seeing these problems in some environments but others are seeing it a lot. -- Stephen J Smoogen. _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/epel-devel
