Since a few weeks, i got often 404 while downloading kernel packages (kernel, headers, etc.).
This is always the europe west6 mirror: [MIRROR] kernel-headers-5.14.0-687.34.1.el9_8.x86_64.rpm: Status code: 404 for https://rocky-linux-europe-west6.production.gcp.mirrors.ctrliq.cloud/pub/rocky//9.8/AppStream/x86_64/os/Packages/k/kernel-headers-5.14.0-687.3
4.1.el9_8.x86_64.rpm (IP: 34.49.38.112)
This causes a kernel panic!
Not ideal with automated package installations.
Does anyone also recognize those issues?
Thx!
Yeah the ciq mirrors do this all the time. Better to use different ones.
How exactly did you do the download?
did you execute the ‘dnf update’ command?

Yes, sure.
i have an automated update process.
But always clean up caches, load etc.
Finally dnf update.
But it was the third time “this summer”.
One of the kernel packges get an 404 - the others are loaded. System means it has installed everything. Then you got a kernel panic while rebooting.
have you tried this before “dnf update” ?:
dnf clean all
sleep 300
dnf update –refsresh

Thats not the point.
Its not affecting automation.
Its simple a 404 - and its always the same mirror.
After these commands, the contents of the DNF CACHE will be updated and will probably download a other file from a different mirror.
