[Solved] db refresh fail

pacman worked flawlessly for me for a long time, but in the last few days it seems to have a problem.

when I try to refresh database, all the custom repos refresh without any problems. The official repos don't refresh correctly.
When running pacman -Syu or pacman Syy in the terminal, it stops somewhere between 70% and 99% (it stops only for core,community and extra, all the non-oficial repos work fine) and just jumps to the next repo. When I open shaman, it shows no packages in core, community and extra.

Switch to a different mirror then try "pacman -Syy" to force  a database refresh.
