Can't do anything to update Endeavour OS

When I try updating Arch mirrors through Welcome, I get: “Fetching information from https://www.archlinux.org failed.”

When I try manually using Reflector to update Arch mirrors, I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/reflector", line 3, in <module>
import Reflector
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'Reflector'

(Even though I checked and Reflector is indeed available in my Python environment AND was also installed via pacman.)

When I try doing “sudo pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring”, I get:

Error: synchronisation of all databases failed (no server configured in repository)

“sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys” does looks like it’s working, but back when pacman -Syu, -Syyu, -Syyuu would still work, it was evident that nothing got updated.

And now, pacman -Sy, -Syu, -Syyu, and -Syyuu all return:

Error: synchronisation of all databases failed (no server configured in repository)

I’m lost. I don’t know what else I can do.

Hi.

You can create your new Arch Linux mirrorlist here:
https://archlinux.org/mirrorlist/

As for EndeavourOS, the latest mirrorlist is this one:

Thank you for your response. I’m glad to know that I can update my mirrors through that method, but there are a few other concerns I have. How would I ensure that pacman would be able to synchronize packages in the future and how would I fix my Reflector installation? Also, how would I make sure that the keyring gets updated properly so that the packages can pass the file integrity checks?

Thanks! The Reflector problem still exists while the other problems have been resolved, but I’ll elaborate that in a separate issue instead.
