Hi,
I'm not sure if I should raise this as a bug or not, or indeed if I am doing something fundamentally wrong...
Pacman tells me there are updates to do, but:
Using the mirror "mirrors.manchester.m247.com" I get a 404 error
Using the mirror "http://mirror.bytemark.co.uk/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch" I get a 403 error
example:
# pacman -Syu

Hi flangemonkey,
that mirror was not synced yet when you did the upgrade (the last sync ended today at 10:54 UTC, about 17 mitues after you posted on this borad). It should be ok now, just try to redo the update. Next time, you may want to check first the status of the mirrors https://www.archlinux.org/mirrors/status

Thanks for the reply, I will make a note of that page - most useful
However my 404 still persists on mirrors.manchester.m247.com
Works fine on mirror.bytemark.co.uk
As you say, probably a glitch

Not a Sysadmin issue, moving to NC...
