Bug 308832

I can confirm this too. After doing an offine installation using the KDE cd. I installed the OSS and non-OSS repositories from the Community Repositories module in YaST but when I try to install the update repository, even though I get a success notification, the repository is never added.

If I install it manually, using as url

http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/

and alias

openSUSE-10.3-Updates

I can access the updates, but opensuseupdater cannot find/display them in normal operation.

Sorry, I just need to add that I'm using the 32bit edition.

Please attach y2logs. If you are in doubt follow:

Thanks!

Yast2 logs showing the inability to setup the online repository

Hi Konstantinos!

According to [1] you should have set this bug to assigned after you posted the attachment, I'm doing that now. Maybe this was the reason why there was no reaction.

Additionally, bug #310533 seems to be a duplicate of this bug. I too had the exact same problem: No update possible after offline install, works great after online install.

So lots of people seem to be hitting this bug, and I guess it would be a very severe bug if Suse left half of its users without online updates...

Hi Stefan,

I'm sorry for the delay caused, this is actually my first bug report. I will look more carefully to the Bug Reporting FAQ. 

It is actually the same bug, you're right. How could we merge the two?

Thanks,
Kostas

*** Bug 310533 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I have just installed RC1 and the problem seems to be solved, I was able to setup the update repository using the Community Repositories module through YaST and the updating process is working as it should.

Well, i wasn't. I was pleasantly surprised by all the preconfigured repo's in the communitiy repo module. I enabled the main update repo and hit "Finish", onl to be welcomed by a backtrace in an xmessage. I tried to cut and paste info from this window to include here, but that doesnt work. How to get info out of an xmessage?

Maybe bug 326956 is related to this problem

O, I forgot. Adding other repo's using the community repo module works. Also adding the update repo by hand thru the software repo module works too.

Fred, to copy the contents of a window simply press ALT+PRINT (the key is labeled "Druck" on German keyboards, it's at the upper right). Now you can paste the window's contents into Gimp or OpenOffice. Works the same way in windows, btw.

I could also get the updates after manually configuring the update repo. But when I wanted to do it the official way, I got the message that my system does not trust the "SUSE Package Signing Key" (see attachment). Did this happen to anyone else?

Well, my problem is gone after I booted the afternoon. I am now able to enable the update repo succesfully. I do not have the problem about not trusting the key. So for me this bug can be closed, but maybe not for others.

The way to add the update repository is to run the 'Online Update Configuration' on the running system.

The opensuseupdater should link to that YaST module and not to "Installation repositories" or at least to both.
Or far more better the "Installation repositories" module should have a button (or something) that fetches a valid update source and adds it to the list.

As the main bug is closed now I will switch to "enhencement" now and leave it open.

stano: any preference?

Guys, this bug persists in the GM version. Setting up the online repository doesn't via the respective module doesn't make it visible to the Software Repositories module and opensuseupdater cannot find the repository either.

I have installed suse 10.3  on laptop with wireless. (GNOME install)
I did have a connection but the update rep does not get added.

Tried adding it with Online Update Configuration wich gives a unrecognised key error wich i skip and then reports it added an update source 
( download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/ but if i look in the software repositories it does not show only the dvd i installed from.

added by hand (server download.opensuse.org and directory update/10.3  then add
then finish   this results in downloading and then hanging while busy with
patch-evince-4465.xml   


quiting gives no update source in the software repository.

to my desktop and put that in my software repository
this works!   could run all updates now and am now fully updated.
tried again to doe all the things here before but still not working.
get more descriptive errors now will upload screenshot-1.jpg wich shows the errors.

now tried to put the ftp address in the software repository.

The screenshot where the http update site is in the software rep

This is fixed - update repo is even added by default now.
