can't access SLES 11 SP4 update repository

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server SLES Updates
1

Hi,

we have several SLES 11 SP4 servers which can’t access the suse update repository.
I’d like to install some updates, e.g. a new kernel due to stack clash. But i can’t reach the suse servers:

vm53200-12:~ # zypper se kernel Refreshing service 'nu_novell_com'. Timeout exceeded when accessing 'https://nu.novell.com/repo/repoindex.xml?credentials=NCCcredentials'.

I have this on several hosts, so i think the problem is not related to our configuration.

Does anyone else experience this and know if suse is working on it ?

Thanks.

Bernd

Seems to be universal. I’ll check if they already know about it, but my
guess is yes.

Hi all, I have a similar issue on Suse 11sp4

[CODE]# cat /etc/os-release
NAME=“SLES”
VERSION=“11.4”
VERSION_ID=“11.4”
PRETTY_NAME=“SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP4”
ID=“sles”
ANSI_COLOR=“0;32”
CPE_NAME=“cpe:/o:suse:sles:11:4”

zypper ref -s

Refreshing service ‘nu_novell_com’.
Timeout exceeded when accessing ‘https://nu.novell.com/repo/repoindex.xml?credentials=NCCcredentials’.

Abort, retry, ignore? [a/r/i] (r):
Autoselecting ‘r’ after 26 seconds.

[/CODE]
Server is already registered on SCC.

Many thanks

The above zypper output suggests that your server is registered against
Novell Customer Center (NCC) not SCC as you last commented … ?

I’m not aware of any issues with NCC but as per the thread you replied
to it’s a case of trying again later.

HTH.
