Hi MTCAT
What does your  /opt/tcemirror  file look like?
It should look like this:
Code: [Select]
tc@E310:~$ cat /opt/tcemirror
http://repo.tinycorelinux.net/
tc@E310:~$

Hi Rich,

In tcemirror I tried both the address you suggested and also the original "ibiblio" address that was there to begin with (I think it was http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/), sorry can't recall it exactly, but both of them are giving me the same error at the moment.

Code: [Select]
Connection error: Check network or mirror.

Thanks,

David

Hi Rich,

After Google searching, I also tried

Code: [Select]
tce-fetch.sh info.lst

Which returned

Code: [Select]
wget: server returned error:HTTP/1.1 404 not found

I also tried

Code: [Select]
cat /etc/resolv.conf

which returned

Code: [Select]
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 172.16.1.254

Maybe this is something undesirable with my router (like a firewall or something?), last time I hooked up to TC repo I was in a different location, with a different ISP and router. Although, Lubuntu doesn't seem to have any issues connecting to the internet with Firefox.

Thanks,

David

Hi MTCAT
Is it possible your router or ISP is blocking http?
Try changing http to https and report what happens.

Hi MTCAT
If you do this:
Code: [Select]
wget http://google.comDoes it download  index.html ?

Then try this:
Code: [Select]
getMirror
# The next command should display the URL for your repo
echo $MIRROR
wget $MIRROR/info.lst
Did it download  info.lst ?
What did  echo $MIRROR  display?

Well there's your problem. You're trying to connect to the 3.x
repo but it no longer exists.

Your network is fine.

Hi Rich,

Oh, okay, sorry for all the hassle, I didn't know the 3.x repo was no longer around, good thing I got all I needed (hopefully anyway) a couple of years ago.

Thanks,

David

Hi MTCAT
No hassle. If you need anything from 3.x, let
me know. I have a backup copy of the repo.
