Description Brian Patten 2006-03-10 15:38:57 UTC

Now after I've tried to upgrade all my related packages, the Yast2 gui for installation sources gives me an error everytime I go into it. 

"There were errors when restoring the sources configuration. Not all soures will be available for configuration"

Basically I had a factory mirror in the Installation Sources, Removed it, and added a different mirror and now I get this error. Its like the old mirror exists somewhere, but yet the new mirror sticks.  When I go to software management, to view all the new packages for the new mirror, it takes its time to load from the website and then it just automatically closes.

As for now, I was able to install y2pmsh and add an installation source there and upgrade my system that way in hopes to resolve my problem.  We'll see if that helps.  Otherwise, do you guys know what happen? Is there a config file that I can wipe out the old mirror?
Thanks.

Sounds like a ZYPP-problem.

Comment 4 Klaus Kämpf 2006-03-13 15:08:17 UTC

sources -> Stano

Comment 5 Erik Jacobson 2006-03-13 17:14:59 UTC

SGI has observed this as well.

Comment 6 Stanislav Visnovsky 2006-03-14 14:20:40 UTC

Could you, please, attach contents of /var/lib/zypp/ ?

tarball of /var/lib/zypp

In this case, I removed the install sources so 
graphical yast reported no install sources, then I 
tried to click 'Finish' (with the empty source 
list) and got the "Unable to save changes to installation source configuration. Details: Media 
Exception Try again?" window.

I'm not removing needinfo because it isn't set to 
me and it doesn't match exactly the report.

Comment 9 Erik Jacobson 2006-03-14 15:10:58 UTC

Comments 7 and 8 weren't a fair example because an SGI add-on was involved
and those are known to have issues.

So I went back to a vanilla install.  I had trouble re-producing this
because, no matter what I did, I couldn't delete the base OS package
from the list :(  I tried several times to delete it and when I
went back to install sources, it was still there.

I'm able to edit/replace it and change to different versions of the mirror
host name.

I'm pretty sure I saw the version of this problem the bug reporter saw
on a different machine but I haven't been able to make it happen again.
