anaconda.log
Okay, I just reproduced - here's the log
At around 15:15 in the log I touched /etc/hosts and hit Retry
Should be working in the next build of anaconda, which should be the F-11 beta release. For reference, the fix was: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/anaconda.git?p=anaconda.git;a=commitdiff;h=60bb9f9957 Confirmed fixed with 20090325 rawhide |
With 2009-03-22 rawhide, http installs are failing to download repomd.xml With this patch: def urlgrabberFailureCB (self, obj, *args, **kwargs): - log.warning("Try %s/%s for %s failed" % (obj.tries, obj.retry, obj.url)) + log.warning("Try %s/%s for %s failed: %s" % (obj.tries, obj.retry, obj.url, obj.exception)) the error I was seeing is: Try 1/10 for http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/fedora/linux/development/x86_64/os/repodata/repomd.xml failed: [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error [Errno 2] No such file or directory> Downloading the url with wget works fine from the anaconda shell Running strace the only interesting thing I could see was: open("/etc/hosts", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) Sure enough, no /etc/hosts exists and touching it before retrying makes the install proceed just fine.
