Host resolution errors are not related to the problem with the database extension. There is a problem with your DNS. You can check with

host xyne.archlinux.ca
ping xyne.archlinux.ca

or by trying to visit the site. They should all return the same error. Change your DNS server if you can, otherwise use the site's IP address as a workaround while waiting for your DNS server to get updated:

[xyne-x86_64]
Siglevel = Required
Server = https://67.231.20.247/bin/repo.php?file=

Show your pacman.conf?

Server = https://xyne.archlinux.ca/bin/repo.php?file=

The only difference from me is that I use http, you use https. I just checked the repo page, and Xyne also wrote https, but I am pretty sure I copy pasted it the other day, maybe it was changed.

That said, I just changed mine to https, and it still works.

I use a copy paste of the x86_64 section from https://xyne.archlinux.ca/repos/ and it seems to work fine for me.

Notice how the error message does not include http/https but just 'xyne.archlinux.ca'. Because http/https are protocols while the latter is a hostname. Or in short: Not related.

Got this starting yesterday- had been working fine for months prior. Tried an -Syy and refreshing pacman-key but no joy. I could cancel sig checking for the repo but I'd like to avoid it. I notice that updates for bauerbill and some deps are available, but no idea if its related.

Re: Xyne's repos: news and discussion

@GSF1200S
Have you updated your pacman.conf with the new Server URL for my repo? This was discussed above. The link is in this post.

It did it for a few days and then resolved itself. I had indeed updated pacman.conf. I'm sorry I forgot to mention here and thanks for the reply.

Still cant build ABS packages though... been pretty busy with work and havent had a chance to check out whats up. It was working fine until the last update to Bauerbill and a few of its deps.

Re: Xyne's repos: news and discussion

@Xyne, the workaround for your repository is no longer necessary.

The problem I'm having is with SigLevel. As you indicate on your site, the pacman -Fs powerpill command does not work. But if I remove the SigLevel line and use the default pacman.conf settings, the command works perfectly.

Re: Xyne's repos: news and discussion

@dapolinario
Thanks for notifying me about the workaround. I will update the site and add a news item in a little while.

I am not able to reproduce the error before or after updating pacman.conf to remove the workaround:

$ pacman -Fy

@Xyne FYI the workaround appears to be necessary again. I just got a 403 when updating my pacman databases.

Re: Xyne's repos: news and discussion

Running bauerbill gives me an error:

/usr/bin/python3: No module named Bauerbill

I believe this is due to python updating to python 3.7 in the official repositories.

All of the Python packages in my repo have been rebuilt with Python 3.7 today so everything should work again.

Re: Xyne's repos: news and discussion

I wasn't sure where to post this, but some of your projects are returning 404 as their src link:

https://xyne.archlinux.ca/projects/pacserve/src
https://xyne.archlinux.ca/projects/powerpill/src
https://xyne.archlinux.ca/projects/pacserve/src
https://xyne.archlinux.ca/projects/powerpill/src
https://xyne.archlinux.ca/projects/pacserve/src
https://xyne.archlinux.ca/projects/powerpill/src

When I saw there was more than one, I made a quick python script to crawl all your projects, so I'm sure these are the only ones that are broken.

The repo has been down for me for a few hours now

error: failed retrieving file 'xyne-x86_64.db' from xyne.archlinux.ca : The requested URL returned error: 406

Also why does the Arch wiki have conflicting setup for your repo when compared to your website?

Use the Server URL from post #77 as a workaround

@progandy, My pacman.conf matches what that post #77 suggests to use. Still I am getting error 406, which is different from the error described in the post you linked.

Re: Xyne's repos: news and discussion

Trying to download https://xyne.archlinux.ca/repos/xyne/xyne-x86_64.db
or https://xyne.archlinux.ca/repos/xyne/xyne-any.db gives error 404 or
406 (varying); trying to open it in the browser gives the following
text:

	Not Acceptable

An appropriate representation of the requested
resource /repos/xyne/xyne-x86_64.db could not be found on this server.

Additionally, a 406 Not Acceptable error was encountered while trying
to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I reported it already to Xyne via email on 2019-03-20, but it is still faulty until today and http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/uno … yne-x86_64 still lists the non-working Server URL.

I found today this thread and tested the Server=http://xyne.archlinux.ca/bin/repo.php?file= URL, it does work, and I corrected the entry in http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/uno … yne-x86_64.

Thanks for the Server=http://xyne.archlinux.ca/bin/repo.php?file= workaround!
