Topic: RPM Repo Frequent 404

My configuration management has been failing frequently because of 404's while trying to get Repo data from the remi repo. I've been seeing this happen 5-10 times a day (Hourly-ish runs of my config management).

Here is the output of the failure

Yum:
Repository Error: failure: repodata/915bf980a3d206b89133a72f7c5631690b9775bc492fda66fcf3f93bbd0703c3-primary.sqlite.bz2 from remi: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try
   http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/7/r … qlite.bz2: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found

Again, this happens pretty frequently. Theres not really anything I can do to my config management other than to disable the remi repo, which I'd rather not do

Re: RPM Repo Frequent 404

Sorry, no real answer.

BTW it seems you use the main server, please check that you use the mirorlist, or a mirror near you.

Laptop:  Fedora 38 + rpmfusion + remi (SCL only)
x86_64 builder: Fedora 39 + rpmfusion + remi-test
aarch64 builder: RHEL 9 with EPEL
Hosting Server: CentOS 8 Stream with EPEL, rpmfusion, remi

Re: RPM Repo Frequent 404

I think this can be related when a mirror sync its copy during an update of the primary server.

I have tried to keep old metadata inline, but was bitten by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1577747

Another try (switching back to createrepo)

Should improve things in the next days
