 |

Hello everyone,
As of today, I'm receiving an error while trying to synchronize the portage. I've already tried 3 times so far and don't want to have problems of getting banned, so I've stopped synchronizing for now, but what could be causing this issue?

nvaert1986,
The normal cause is --syncs not being atomic. If you sync while the server is updating it can be in an indeterminate state.
It's a feature.
However, a retry usually succeeds as the problem only lasts for the copy time.
Did you always get the same server, that would be unusual unless you fixed it yourself as the advertised rsync servers are rotations, you don't actually use them.
They pass you on to a real rsync server 'in rotation'.
Whatever, if the problem persists, make sure to get another server as servers fail too.

Thanks, this solved my issue. There seems to be a broken mirror in the list (in South Africa). I don't know why it selects the mirror in South Africa to sync, but I specified both the sync mirrors and my rsync mirrors to The Netherlands and it resolved the issue for me. They were not specified before. |

Netherlands rulez! I used to use their mirrors too despite being several thousand kilometers away. Now I have a local one.
