Error add local repository[SOLVED]

I create a local repository as wiki says. http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cus … nd_gensync.

My db.tar.gz is at

/home/lq/abs/myrepo.db.tar.gz

And here is my pacman.conf

#
   # /etc/pacman.conf
   #
   # See the pacman.conf(5) manpage for option and repository directives
   
   #
   # GENERAL OPTIONS
   #
   [options]
   # The following paths are commented out with their default values listed.
   # If you wish to use different paths, uncomment and update the paths.
   #RootDir     = /
   #DBPath      = /var/lib/pacman/
   #CacheDir    = /var/cache/pacman/pkg/
   #LogFile     = /var/log/pacman.log
   #HoldPkg     = pacman glibc 
   # If upgrades are available for these packages they will be asked for first
   SyncFirst   = pacman
   XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget --passive-ftp -c -O %o %u
   #XferCommand = /usr/bin/curl %u > %o
   #CleanMethod = KeepInstalled
   
   # Pacman won't upgrade packages listed in IgnorePkg and members of              IgnoreGroup
   #IgnorePkg   =xorg-server xorg-server-utils xf86-input-evdev xf86-input-        synaptics kernel26 kernel26-firmware libgl ati-dri kernel-headers glibc         binutils gcc-libs gcc
   #IgnoreGroup =
   
   #NoUpgrade   =
   #NoExtract   =
   
   # Misc options (all disabled by default)
   #NoPassiveFtp
   #UseSyslog
   #ShowSize
   #UseDelta
   #TotalDownload
   
   #
   # REPOSITORIES
   #   - can be defined here or included from another file
   #   - pacman will search repositories in the order defined here
   #   - local/custom mirrors can be added here or in separate files
   #   - repositories listed first will take precedence when packages
   #     have identical names, regardless of version number
   #   - URLs will have $repo replaced by the name of the current repo
   #
   # Repository entries are of the format:
   #       [repo-name]
   #       Server = ServerName
   #       Include = IncludePath
   #
   # The header [repo-name] is crucial - it must be present and
   # uncommented to enable the repo.
   #
   
   # Testing is disabled by default.  To enable, uncomment the following
   # two lines.  You can add preferred servers immediately after the header,
   # and they will be used before the default mirrors.
   #[testing]
   #Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
   
   [core]
   # Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
   Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
   
   [extra]
   # Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
   Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist   [community]
   # Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
   Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
   
   [myrepo]
   Server = file:///home/lq/abs
   # An example of a custom package repository.  See the pacman manpage for
   # tips on creating your own repositories.
   #[archlinuxfr] 
   #Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/i686 
   #[Gooth]
   #Server = http://public.gooth.cn/archlinux/gooth/os/i686

And when update,it says

2009-10-12 21:26:59 (9.92 MB/s) - `/var/lib/pacman/community.db.tar.gz.part' saved [377225/377225]

file:///home/lq/abs/myrepo.db.tar.gz: Unsupported scheme `file'.
:: Starting full system upgrade...
 local database is up to date

Could anyone tell me what is the problem ?

Re: Error add local repository[SOLVED]

Looks like you are using wget as your download agent (check XferCommand in pacman.conf). wget doesn't understand file, you can either switch to curl or the internal downloader.
