Hello,
Since 2 weeks ago (22nd of Sep), I started to get errors when trying to download epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm returning Forbidden on one of the mirrors (38.145.60.24). If I get lucky in DNS, I connect to a mirror that is working but most of the times I’m not. Here’s an example:
$ wget https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm --2023-10-07 09:35:59-- https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm Resolving dl.fedoraproject.org (dl.fedoraproject.org)... 38.145.60.22, 38.145.60.23, 38.145.60.24 Connecting to dl.fedoraproject.org (dl.fedoraproject.org)|38.145.60.22|:443... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK Length: 15608 (15K) [application/x-rpm] Saving to: ‘epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm’ .....
Here’s one where it doesn’t work:
$ wget https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm --2023-10-07 09:36:02-- https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm Resolving dl.fedoraproject.org (dl.fedoraproject.org)... 38.145.60.24, 38.145.60.23, 38.145.60.22 Connecting to dl.fedoraproject.org (dl.fedoraproject.org)|38.145.60.24|:443... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 403 Forbidden 2023-10-07 09:36:02 ERROR 403: Forbidden.
Please let me know if I should request help somewhere else… Thank you Nuno Fernandes
I thought this might be related to a specific download server, but I was able to get 403 permission failed on dl01 and dl02 and then get success on the same servers.
timestamp of attempts was just before Sat Oct 7 15:03:50 UTC 2023

All 5 download servers that are dl.fedoraproject.org (dl01 -> dl05.fedoraproject.org) all use the same backend NFS partition. I have checked the permissions on the files on the Netapp and the file is listed as -rw-r--r-- so I am guessing the problem is with the apache servers on the dl servers somehow. A restart of all the httpd services may be needed ?
-rw-r--r--
The problem seems to be that the new-updates-sync script is replacing the link every time it runs and thus sometimes it's being replaced and broken.
I am not sure what happened to cause that or if it's always done it.
