Repository links broken

[ANkur]

There is nothing under any of the links. Its impossible to install ourdelta on CentOS

http://mirror.ourdelta.org/yum/CentOS/5/x86_64/RPMS/
http://mirror.ourdelta.cc.com.au/yum/CentOS/5/repodata/

Ye that's kinda on purpose. Even with nifty conflicting rules, we found we couldn't reliably keep 5.0 and 5.1 in the same repo. To prevent more nasties happening, we've moved both 5.0 and 5.1 to new directories. This means that everybody will trip and just needs to adjust their paths to the appropriate version for them.

You can replace the old 'CentOS' in your paths with CentOS-MySQL50 or CentOS-MariaDB51, respectively. We're also creating new "release" RPMs for each tree to automatically set up the repo file for new installations. But editing your existing one will work fine too.

I replaced this URL

http://mirror.ourdelta.org/yum/CentOS/5/x86_64/RPMS/

with:

http://mirror.ourdelta.org/yum/CentOS-MySQL50/5/x86_64/RPMS

but it doesn't seem to be correct. Could you point me to the correct URL?

Thanks!

Hmm the mirrors don't appear to be picking up the new directories... we'll check it out.

[ANkur (ankur655)]

Thanks, Arjen. Could you let me know when it will go live? We wanted to
use the builds but are not able to do anything for the last 2 days since its
not available on any mirror.

The new directories I noted the other day should be available on the mirrors now, cafuego fixed a permissions problem. So please try!

evil_steve is working on the release RPM.

Thanks a lot!

This "fixes" the problem, but all new users will run into this because the links on the web site (ourdelta.org) weren't updated.

Its i tiny, easy to fix "once you know about it" problem, but it gives a really bad "out-of-the-box" experience for new users.

I really suggest fixing the web site too.

This still doesn't work correctly.
I have a server that had MariaDB 5.1.39 installed, back when the rpm's were still in /yum/CentOS
First of all, a yum update on that machine should have somehow alerted me that things were no longer functioning.

Second, after I changed my .repo file by hand to point to /yum/CentOS-MariaDB51 it still wasn't working. I had to also change my mirrors file.

Even after that, it wasn't working, since the package has been renamed to MariaDB-server (as opposed to the old MariaDB-OurDelta-server).

Now, I tried a yum install MariaDB-server, which should obsolete the old MariaDB-OurDelta-server. It seems that the obsoletion is the wrong way around though. Here's what I see:

# yum install MariaDB-server
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * addons: mirror.trouble-free.net
 * base: hpc.arc.georgetown.edu
 * extras: centos.mirror.nac.net
 * ourdelta: mirror.ourdelta.org
 * rpmforge: apt.sw.be
 * updates: mirror.trouble-free.net
480 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
Setting up Install Process
Package MariaDB-server is obsoleted by MariaDB-OurDelta-server, trying to install MariaDB-OurDelta-server-5.1.39-67.el5.x86_64 instead
Package MariaDB-OurDelta-server-5.1.39-67.el5.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Package MariaDB-server is obsoleted by MariaDB-OurDelta-server, trying to install MariaDB-OurDelta-server-5.1.39-67.el5.x86_64 instead
Package MariaDB-OurDelta-server-5.1.39-67.el5.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do.

In short, a big mess. I think that this should be sorted properly, including alerting existing installs that they need to take action. Otherwise, we're going to have a bunch of outdated installations that will never be updated unless someone takes action. As such, I'm also increasing severity on this :)
