Re: [arch-mirrors] arch linux mirror down
As this is the mirror that we currently sync from, and it's been down for 3 days (for rsync) - I'll confirm that it is, in fact, down for rsync. rsync: failed to connect to archlinux.mirrors.uk2.net: Connection refused (111) rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(124) [receiver=3.0.6] - I'm going to switch temporarily to rsync://mirror.rit.edu/archlinux/ as having a mirror 3 days out of sync is not good, but I'd prefer to sync from an rsync mirror in Europe. (One that is not my own mirror, of course (: ) === At a quick check, it does not appear to be down, the box is up and it served up a listing of the Arch mirror via HTTP. Could you perhaps be a little more specific as to the problem you're seeing ? -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.

We're synched with RIT now - so anyone in Europe wishing to have a closer link is welcome to use rsync to this server (if you update from the UK server via rsync and are out of date. Or if you're just looking to have another rsync mirror. Or any other reason, I don't mind providing the traffic.) David: when you have your rsync mirror up, and you're fine with continuing to be our primary upstream mirror - I'll switch back. (Asian mirrors: This is Finland, we should be reasonably close to you as well, if you need a 'nearby' rsync mirror to catch up. Other places: I don't mind if you rsync from here, just keep in mind we probably don't qualify as "local" to you. ) ( mirror.academica.fi::archlinux ) ________________________________________ From: arch-mirrors-bounces@archlinux.org [arch-mirrors-bounces@archlinux.org] on behalf of Ionut Biru [biru.ionut@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, May 14, 2012 11:01 To: arch-mirrors@archlinux.org; mirrors@uk2.net; David Precious; David Precious Subject: Re: [arch-mirrors] arch linux mirror down Hello David, Did you had time to look at this issue?

Ah, OK, apologies - I only checked HTTP last night, as I received your mail as I was about to head out. It seems the rsync daemon had stopped for some reason; I've started it back up, and will be looking in to why it stopped, and more importantly why Nagios didn't catch it for me (I thought rsync on that box was being monitored, but presumably not, since I had to find out by a report from you, rather than automated alerts...)

Thanks for looking into this but the server is responding very very slow. Listening contents of http://archlinux.mirrors.uk2.net/extra/os/x86_64/ for example doesn't work. rsync freeze at receiving files list. receiving file list ... 5300 files... -- Ionuț

You could use several rsync tier1 servers, or just change it to DE beacuse its most stable tier. By the way, could someone check my FTP server(mirror.chmuri.net/archmirror)? Recently flew from the list because he was a connection problem, and unfortunately the problem occurs even after disabling the firewall and see how easily merge with ftp. -- Pozdrawiam Karol Chmurzyński

Ftp works fine from here, I was able to log in and transfer files. After re-checking the mirror status list, I see that the gwdg (de) mirror is actually up to date. It's a bit hard to tell as the default listing shows the rsync wgdg mirror far down the list from the top, listed after several mirrors that are out of date. Maybe the default for that list could be changed to 'most current' instead of... well it appears to be a random order?

In my case i have several tier1 in cron job but primary is DE because i have the best upstream. In future maybe i could think to be tier1 but i don't know ho many link is using in 95 percentile in month. In FTP case i really don't know how its bug from my side that the automated script wont retrieve lastsync from my ftp server. -- Pozdrawiam Karol Chmurzyński
