Hey Sluggers,

 

I am very new to Linux and I am probably making the mistake, I am using Mandrake 10.1 Official and trying to add new media to my URPMI conf. However when I try to addmedia from sever different mirrors around the globe I get the following error messages after my input.

 

As root I type:

 

urpmi.addmedia main ftp://mirror.pacific.net.au/linux/Mandrakelinux/official/10.1/i586/media/main/ with /media_info/hdlist.cz

 

and I get

 

retrieving source hdlist (or synthesis) of "main"...

    ftp://mirror.pacific.net.au/linux/Mandrakelinux/official/10.1/i586/media/main/media_info/hdlist.cz

...retrieving failed: curl: (7) Failed to connect to 0.0.0.10: Invalid argument

retrieval of source hdlist (or synthesis) failed

no hdlist file found for medium "main"

examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.main.cz]

problem reading synthesis file of medium "main"

unable to update medium "main"

 

Any Ideas what would cause this??? I have never had a problem before, I have tried several different servers and I get the same error message.

Scott Clements
