Hi, Just recently setup the arch-haskell repo's in pacman.conf. The mirrors worked a couple of days ago--but since yesterday, I am getting the following error message on both xsounds and/or kiwilight. "error: failed retrieving file 'haskell-core.db' from xsounds.org : Failed to connect to xsounds.org port 80: Connection refused" Is there a problem on server side, maintenance, what have you? Or is it something on my side? Thanks.

It's on the server side. I've just alerted the administrator of the box so hopefully it'll be up an running again shortly. /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus Perl is another example of filling a tiny, short-term need, and then being a real problem in the longer term. -- Alan Kay

Is it still down ?

No worries, thanks for the feedback, Magnus. _______________________________________________ arch-haskell mailing list arch-haskell@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/arch-haskell

Yep it is back up ! Thanks

Unfortunately, the problem is back on both xsounds and kiwilight..... (actually, xsounds seems ok now, but just a few minutes ago was giving the same error "port 80: Connection refused") :: Synchronizing package databases... core is up to date error: failed retrieving file 'haskell-core.db' from www.kiwilight.com : Failed to connect to www.kiwilight.com port 80: Connection refused error: failed to update haskell-core (download library error)

Would you like some server space? What access do you need? Or maybe as a mirror meanwhile? -- SP

It'd be nice with a mirror. It should be possible to create one using rsync. The entry on the xsounds server looks like this: [arch-haskell] path = /home/haskell/public_html comment = Arch Haskell Rsync Server uid = nobody gid = nobody read only = yes chroot = yes list = yes Let me know if there's something else you need to get it going. /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus Code as if whoever maintains your program is a violent psychopath who knows where you live. -- Anonymous

I just set up a mirror that pulls from xsounds via rsync once an hour: Server = http://arch-haskell.hiddenrock.com/core/$arch For reference, here's the rsync command I'm using: rsync -vaP --delete rsync://xsounds.org/arch-haskell/ ./ If you'd rather I take it offline or organize it differently, please let me know. I guess/anticipate/hope the bandwidth and disk requirements will be well within tolerances for my server; if not, I will let the list know ASAP. pete

Cool! Thanks!

I need to test it on Tuesday and then I will add it.

I think it is working, double check it. The link is added in the Arch wiki [1]. Magnus edit it if you think it should be differently. [1]: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ArchHaskell#.5Bhaskell-core.5D -- SP

I received a notification about the edit; it looks perfect to me.

kiwilight hasn't had a working web server for a while now. I honestly thought it had been removed from the Wiki page already, but apparently not. Now it's gone anyway. /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus The results point out the fragility of programmer expertise: advanced programmers have strong expectations about what programs should look like, and when those expectations are violated--in seemingly innocuous ways--their performance drops drastically. -- Elliot Soloway and Kate Ehrlich
