[Spacewalk-list] jpackage.org?

[Rob Sterenborg]

Hi,

I’ve used this repo file to install jpackage:

==============
[jpackage-generic]
name=JPackage generic
#baseurl=http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/pub/jpackage/5.0/generic/free/
mirrorlist=http://www.jpackage.org/mirrorlist.php?dist=generic&type=free&release=5.0
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://www.jpackage.org/jpackage.asc
==============


My DNS shows this:

# dig +short jpackage.org ns
ns3.zarb.org.
# dig +short www.jpackage.org @ns3.zarb.org
jpackage.org.
51.15.1.41

The mirrorlist currently shows this:

# No local mirror detected - defaulting to adding them all
ftp://jpackage.hmdc.harvard.edu/JPackage/5.0/generic/free
http://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/ftp/pub/Linux/jpackage/5.0/generic/free
http://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/jpackage/5.0/generic/free
ftp://ftp.pbone.net/pub/jpackage/5.0/generic/free
http://mirror.ibcp.fr/pub/jpackage/5.0/generic/free
http://sunsite.rediris.es/mirror/jpackage/5.0/generic/free
ftp://gsa10.eps.cdf.udc.es/jpackage/5.0/generic/free
http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/jpackage/5.0/generic/free

Hope this helps.

Kalchik, Jeffery:
> I'm finally getting around to running the 2.5->2.6 upgrade here this afternoon.... and discovering that the JPackage repo (www.jpackage.org<http://www.jpackage.org>) is apparently unavailable.  Not only that, but so are the 3 name servers the whois registration points to (ns[012].zarb.org.) I'm also not sure if http://www.zarb.org looks much like I'd expect.

Hi Jeffery,

Yep, jpackage.org is completely down including dns.
There are basically 2 solutions/workarounds:
a) edit your jpackage-generic.repo file and comment out mirrorlist and
uncomment baseurl (see updated instructions on
https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/wiki/HowToInstall#additional-repos--packages),
b) we've also created last resort backup on http://yum.spacewalkproject.org/jpackage/
(use it as basurl in your jpackage-generic.repo file).
