Pacman issues after new installation of core i686

krojas · 2011-04-21 08:06:44

Hi archforum,

Hopefully you guys can help me becouse im getting crazy of just staring at the configs and cant figure out why the hell pacman can´t update or synch with any of the database. I have been reading through of old threads and havent found a solution yet for mine.

I will explain.

I go with DHCP settings on the machine, and i can ping during the installation, tried to do netinstall but didnt work, got timeout. Tried severals mirrors but same issue. So i went from the CD.

After the installation same issues got to me, i tried several mirrors in the mirrorslist, tried wget in passive ftp mode and tried using curl. All the same issue, it get connected but it doesnt download. Tried as well just doing a normal wget of a file from one of the reps, but as pacman, it just get stuck. Thats why i tried with curl as well. This machine is now behind NAT with no Upnp. Tried the machine on DMZ, same thing. Thought if my other linux dist was blocking it somehow, so i tried to remove it and tried even to connect it with static settings directly to the ISP socket. Wget just get stuck without moving, and gets an error.

I will post the configs and hopefully one of you guys who actually know how to handle this, may help me.:)

But down here you will see the results of the different settings.

As you can see guys, this sucks. Cant update, cant download, and the only way sending applikation to the machine is by SFTP.

PS. Ping on google successfully

[blargh@gory ~]$ ping google.se

Well, I think you should remove some "#" in mirrorlist to enable server, and then you will be able to upgrade.

Not only on the swedish servers, tried as well with the servers in category #Any and random countries. Same issue.

What´s makes it so damn wierd, is that I cant even download straight away with wget

My bad. Didn't saw those enabled servers.

New information:

Seems that wget can download files that are extremely small. Like an HTML file or TXTfile. But when I try to download a pdf-file less than 5kb it still get stuck. I have no clue why...
