My network has been down for over a week because we move our office. Now I am getting the following Errors each time the mail server checks for updates.
Cannot Find a valid baseurl for repo: base
I have tried to run the following:
grep -r check4updates /etc/cron*
Also we are seeing:
Clam update failed
Cant connect to port 80 of host database.clamav.net
Is it possible that all the Database IP addresses used to reach out for updates are missing?
-
hi
did you check if your server can connect to internet?
did you check server's gateway?

Hi there,
I don't know if this is the right place, but I have allmost the same error:
"Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: smeaddons
Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: smeaddons"
Internet connection is okay.
I've had this before, but got rid of it after an update........
Server is working okay. I'm watching the logs.

Armand

Yes it is connected to the Internet. It is sending and receiving mail just find. I know that I only allowed the IP addresses that were in the BASE URL file in via a policy from my firewall. I have since changed that to allow any to see if that makes a difference. That way I can find out if it has anything to do with my policy or not.

are you saying that you have a policy in your fw to permit traffic to ONE ip?
repositories are hosted on many server.. you should permit outgoing traffic from SME directed to port 80

No I am using 15 or so. I have changed it over to any for now. I will have to see what happens.

If that does not work you may try and restore the default settings for your repositories by following these instructions:

Perhaps, you could also follow above instruction and see if that resolves your issue, furthermore you need to check if your SME Server traffic to the outside world is not obstructed by any other gateways/firewalls.
Also make sure you follow instructions after updates to execute the reconfigure procedure either through server-manager or when doing updates from the command line by executing:
signal-event post-upgrade
signal-event reboot
Next time please report issues like that in the bugtracker and if you have already done so add your remarks there and only there to keep all communication in one place. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for reply Cactus, was gone for the week-end...
Yes I did all that the same day, as I had this before.
That's why I was watching my logs. Seemes to be okay.
And yes I know I have to use the bug tracker, it won't happen again.
Cheers 'n beers.

I have since allowed ANY for my mail server allowing in all updates from all mirrors. I am not getting any errors now however I see the the cron daemon used to email me logs daily and I have not received any since the 16th. BELOW

Okay I am not sure why but the cron daemon is emailing me again. It stopped for almost a week.now I am getting the "/sbin/e-smith/check4update -m" once again. Which I think is a good thing?
The error is:
Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: smeaddons
Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: smeaddons
Error in sys.exitfunc:
Traceback (most recent call last):

os.unlink('/var/run/yum.status')
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/run/yum.status'
Can someone tell me what this means? Thanks.

I am experiencing similar issues and have open two two tickets at Bugzilla:
http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5378 (about cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: xxx)
http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5379 (about can't get information about db.local.clamav.net: )
You may wish to follow developments there.
Thanks

Thanks I will take a look now and again.
