Database not found or corrupted [Solved]

[The Sk]

Hi all.

I just emerged entropy and I've ran into a problem.

Whenever I try to equo update i get the following:

Code: Select all

castle run # equo update
>> Repository sabayon-weekly hasn't been downloaded yet.
>> Repository sabayon-weekly is not available. Cannot validate
>> RepositoryError()
>> !!! Please update your repositories now in order to remove this message!
>> Repository sabayonlinux.org hasn't been downloaded yet.
>> Repository sabayonlinux.org is not available. Cannot validate
>> RepositoryError()
>> !!! Please update your repositories now in order to remove this message!
>>  @@ Repositories synchronization ...
>>  @@ Resources still locked, giving up!


My repositories.conf looks like this:

# Sabayon Linux Official Repository

Are these the correct repositories?

Also, whenever I try to run sulfur I get "database not found or corrupted" and it runs on safemode. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

It's somehow fixed. However I can't seem to update the repository, it downloads to about 40 percent, restarts the download from 0 and dies saying it's not available.

Is there a way for me to download it manually and update it kinda like a portage snapshot?

check if "dhcpcd" service is running

or

Code: Select all

#/etc/init.d/dhcpcd start

Try update repositories again

If it works :

Code: Select all

# rc-update add dhcpcd default

Hi,
Have you checked if enough disk space is available ? In console the command "df -m" or "df -h" will tell you all.

Thanks for the info guys.

The problem is my slow connection, it takes a while for it to reach a certain percentage and thus resets the download. If I could download it seperately and update it like a snapshot I would get around this.

EDIT: I managed to do it with svn.

Hi,
I am curious about the method, how did you do that ?

Strange that entropy does not have any kind of resume method ? pcmanfm from Archlinux for instance can use wget or curl...
