Linegod_7611 : 29/08/02 09:31 PM : Reply received -   Do you mean you are unable to add new sources to 'rpmdrake'? What procedure are you using: 'K/Configuration/Mandrake Control Center' then 'Software Management/Software Sources Management' then select 'Add' input the information for a supported mirror (one with a hdlist.cz) ------- Note: If this answer resolves your problem, please remember to close this incident.
jryck : 30/08/02 04:52 AM : More info provided -   Yes that is the method that I am using. When I click on Add..., and then after I place the name/location/relative location for the hdlist.cz file, I click on OK. Which should search the site that I placed in, and then say something along the lines of "medium added". Instead I am getting an error message saying that the medium was unable to be added.I sounds like to me that the eroor is occuring during the generating of the "list" file. I say that, because before I updated to beta 4 and before I installed beta 3, I had 8.2, which I had a personally added server. When I upgraded to beta 3 it didn't show on the available list. I did an add for that server, and bang it worked. Now hen I installed beta 4, I did a fresh install, and not an upgrade, so the "list" file is gone, and I can't readd the source. I hope that I have explained myself enough. :) Thanks for all the help

Upgrade your rpmdrake to 2.0-15mdk, urpmi to 4.0-8mdk and perl-URPM to 0.70-4mdk, and see if resolves the problem. ------ Note: If this answer resolves your problem, please remember to close this incident.
