Hmm debugging this a little further, the url's its trying for example: This fails: <a href="http://ftp.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386/Packages/gmpc-0.15.5.0-3.fc9.i386.rpm" target="_blank">http://ftp.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386/Packages/</a>sonata-1.5.1-1.fc9.i386.rpm But if I remove */Packages/* from url i can download package from the browser <a href="http://ftp.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386/sonata-1.5.1-1.fc9.i386.rpm">http://ftp.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386/sonata-1.5.1-1.fc9.i386.rpm</a> So looks like the constructed url should not have Packages but somehow it does. Any thoughts? <div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, May 24, 2008 at 7:57 AM, PK <<a href="mailto:superprad@gmail.com">superprad@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Hello: yum keeps erroring out with a 404 not found for most package installs. Below is the example. It tries a bunch of em and ends with "No more mirrors to try". Is this a konwn bug? or do I need to fix something in my .repo files?
