<ul></ul><p>Does indeed seem to be a problem with <a class="external" href="https://redirector.parabola.nu/$repo/os/$arch">https://redirector.parabola.nu/$repo/os/$arch</a></p>
<p>when I comment that out and pacman -Syy followed by pacman -Su <br />the list of updates gets much smaller and the 404's disappear.</p> Servers - Housekeeping #1600: sort out mirrors and 404 errorshttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/1600?journal_id=88062018-01-06T01:46:35Zfreemor
<ul></ul><p>Seems it is not just redirector but repo.parabola.nu that has the issue:</p>
<p>Tried pacman -Suy<br />got 404's<br />commented out everything but repo.parabola.nu in mirrorslits<br />pacman -Syy to refresh index<br />pacman -Su <br />... and 404 on all the same packages that were 404ing with the default mirrorslist</p>

<p>ftp.acc.umu.se was indeed absent from /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist. fixed by now.<br />parabola.isacdaavid.info on the other hand, this is only a low-storage hot cache. it will store on its own any file that it sees requested a lot (as opposed to just acting as a proxy). i'll leave it up to you to decide whether sharing its storage between packages and install images is a good idea. a negative answer was the original motivation for not explicitly listing it in the downloads page.</p> Servers - Housekeeping #1600: sort out mirrors and 404 errorshttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/1600?journal_id=98472018-07-16T21:52:55Zisacdaavid

<p>is this still an issue for you? i've been happily using redirector.parabola.nu on i686 for some days now.</p> Servers - Housekeeping #1600: sort out mirrors and 404 errorshttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/1600?journal_id=99492018-07-23T13:42:14Zfreemor
<ul></ul><p>When I installed an i686 machine the other day it was an issue. Pretty much every package 404'd on the first attempt to fetch. <br />It should be noted that this is not just a cosmetic issue as all the 404s do slow down the install a noticable bit.</p> Servers - Housekeeping #1600: sort out mirrors and 404 errorshttps://labs.parabola.nu/issues/1600?journal_id=110012019-01-07T05:20:39Zinfertux
<ul></ul><p>I've been getting recurring errors about mirror.js-webcoding.de whenever I run <code>pacman -Syu</code>. Shouldn't it be removed from redirector.parabola.nu?</p>

<ul><li><strong>Tracker</strong> changed from <i>Bug</i> to <i>Housekeeping</i></li></ul><p>yes, it is probably time to look into this again - there have been 2 or 3 new parabola mirrors added since this issue was opened</p>
