Hi all,
I'm sorry if this has been covered but I have had trouble with my mail.
I use the command eix-sync && emerge -auvtDN world && prelink -aqR to 
update my system. However, since Friday I am getting the following 
output:-
* Removing old portage-cache in /var/cache/edb/dep ...               {ok ]
 * Running emerge --sync ...
 * Problems running time emerge --sync                             [ !! ]
 * emerge --sync failed

Has anybody any ideas as to what is causing this and how to solve it?
Thanks
Paul

Not sure, but does `emerge --sync` actually work? That would probably
give a more detailed error than eix does.

Hi, this is the error for emerge --sync:-
>>> Starting retry 2 of 3 with rsync://64.127.121.98/gentoo-portage
>>> Checking server timestamp ...
timed out
rsync error: received SIGINT, SIGTERM, or SIGHUP (code 20) at rsync.c(244) 
[receiver=2.6.9]
>>> Retrying...


>>> Starting retry 3 of 3 with rsync://140.211.166.165/gentoo-portage
>>> Checking server timestamp ...
timed out
rsync error: received SIGINT, SIGTERM, or SIGHUP (code 20) at rsync.c(244) 
[receiver=2.6.9]

So it appears a time out problem. What should I do now?
Thanks
Paul

probably the rsync has changed ip. try one of this servers:
sync = rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage
#sync = rsync://rsync3.it.gentoo.org/gentoo-sources
#sync = http://www.die.unipd.it/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo-sources/
#sync = http://mirror.ing.unibo.it/gentoo/
the first is the official one, the others should be mirrors. a full list of
rsync mirrors can be found somewhere on the gentoo site. just search for it.
the problem with your method is that you don't pass through a dns server
asking directly for an ip address and this could not work anymore when the
site you're trying has changed ip. you'd have to get again the ip. if you
want to use the ip address try searching the name with a ping or traceroute
or in some dns site like in the opendns cache site.

Hi,
Thanks. I have used mirrorselect and updated make.conf and it now works.

please use names and not ip addresses!!!! remove 64.127.121.98 and add in
its place rsync.gentoo.org. the rsync server rotates so the simple ip might
not work.
remove it and use rsync.gentoo.org and use that.
and try not rsyncing more than once per 24hours or you can be temporary
banned!!!!

Rsync-server needs direct connection to your computer. According to your
`timed out', are you behind firewall/NAT or something like this?

I am not using ip addresses. (I think). I thought that rsync reads the 
mirror sites from make.conf, this is mine.
GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo/ 
ftp://mirror.qubenet.net/mirror/gentoo/ 
ftp://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/Linux/gentoo 
http://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/"
Would rsync itself be using ip addresses?
thanks
Paul

Hi again,
Yes I have a router which has NAT but I do not know how to tell it to 
allow rsync.
It's strange that up until a few days ago I have had no problems 
emerge --sync or exi-sync.  Could this problem be related to some other 
cause?
I wish I was more expert in this area.
regards
Paul

Look at the tail end of /var/log/emerge.log and see what you have recently 
emerged.  The most painless way to do this is something like:

% genlop -l | tail -n 200 | less

Mine shows that I emerged 'sys-apps/portage-2.1.3.16' Saturday morning.  My 
guess is that you did the same, and your 'make.conf' was modified. (Did you 
'update-etc' or 'dispatch-conf' after emerging?)


Check that make.conf contains a section like this:

# Synchronizing Portage
# =====================
#
# Each of these settings affects how Gentoo synchronizes your Portage tree.
# Synchronization is handled by rsync and these settings allow some control
# over how it is done.
#
#
# SYNC is the server used by rsync to retrieve a localized rsync mirror
#     rotation. This allows you to select servers that are geographically
#     close to you, yet still distribute the load over a number of servers.
#     Please do not single out specific rsync mirrors. Doing so places undue
#     stress on particular mirrors.  Instead you may use one of the following
#     continent specific rotations:
#
#   Default:       "rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#   North America: "rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#   South America: "rsync://rsync.samerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#   Europe:        "rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#   Asia:          "rsync://rsync.asia.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#   Australia:     "rsync://rsync.au.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
SYNC="rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#
# PORTAGE_RSYNC_RETRIES sets the number of times portage will attempt to retrieve
#     a current portage tree before it exits with an error. This allows
#     for a more successful retrieval without user intervention most times.
#PORTAGE_RSYNC_RETRIES="3"
#
# PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS can be used to feed additional options to the rsync
#     command used by `emerge --sync`. This will not change the default options
#     which are set by PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS (don't change those unless you know
#     exactly what you're doing).
#PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS=""
#

The 'SYNC' variable is the important one:

the line ">>> Starting rsync with rsync://64.127.121.98/gentoo-portage... " 
is produced after dns resolution so yes it is.
mirror choices 1 and 4 above are currently dead when I try them,
choices 2 and 3 are responding to my browser.
Suggest you remove the GENTOO_MIRRORS=" line from /etc/make.conf
If there is a lot of turbulence in the rsync servers near you, your mirror 
select choices and/or your dns cache values may be overtaken by events and 
be invalid today although good yesterday.

Your firewall allow traffic agains port 873 tcp/udp ?
That port is used for rsync traffic.

Best Regards,

Eduardo.
