Failed to retrieve download mirrors - wallacemckart - 31st Aug, 2015 08:31 AM

Hi,

I wasn't using my pi for a while. Today I plugged in and wanted to check if there is any updates. But after trying to update mirrors from xbian config, I got "Failed to retrieve download mirrors" error.

I checked my sources.list:

deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free rpi

xbian.list:

deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt stable main rpi-wheezy
### deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt staging main rpi-wheezy
### deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt devel main rpi-wheezy

it is what is written at xbian.org/faq too. What am I doing wrong?Huh

Cant see anything wrong with the mirrors except one (out of five) being down for few days now.
Have you tried running "Update mirrors" + "apt-get update" with the "xbian-config" tool before trying to upgrade ?

And of course we welcome anyone that can host a mirror for XBian.

I also tried but also got error. I haven't thought of using "copy". Good opinion. I seem to want to give up when I get an error. Thank you.
