Description Forgotten User YkjZ10MzU3 2007-11-26 14:02:32 UTC
Hi all,

with yast we weren't able to install online updates on openSUSE 10.3.

We've done the following:
- yast -> Software -> Online Update Configuration -> Next (automatically checked "Configure Now (Recommended)")
  Finally we've got "Your configuration was successful. An update server has been added to your configuration."
  The update server is "http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/?alias=openSUSE-10.3-Updates".
- yast online_update
  Here we get the final message "No active update source is available."

In the network trace (text based wireshark) on openSUSE 10.3 we see:
Hypertext Transfer Protocol
    GET http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/media.1/products HTTP/1.1\r\n
        Request Method: GET
        Request URI: http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/media.1/products
        Request Version: HTTP/1.1
    Proxy-Authorization: Basic Og==\r\n
        Credentials: :
    User-Agent: Novell ZYPP Installer\r\n
    Host: download.opensuse.org\r\n
    Pragma: no-cache\r\n
    Accept: */*\r\n
    Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n
    \r\n


For a comparison here almost the same network packet on openSUSE 10.2:
Hypertext Transfer Protocol
    GET http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/suse/update/10.2/repodata/repomd.xml HTTP/1.1\r\n
        Request Method: GET
        Request URI: http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/suse/update/10.2/repodata/repomd.xml
        Request Version: HTTP/1.1
    Proxy-Authorization: Basic dTEwNHNlY3A6TmhvbGFlemx1Zw==\r\n
        Credentials: Benutzer:Geheim
    User-Agent: Novell ZYPP Installer\r\n
    Host: ftp.gwdg.de\r\n
    Pragma: no-cache\r\n
    Accept: */*\r\n
    Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n
    \r\n


We think the proxy authentification with online updates on openSUSE 10.3 doesn't work correctly.
Could you please try to reproduce and correct the problem if necessary.
Thank you very much.
