Everytime I run Reflector-simple I get a message with regard to missing reflector-simple.conf and then if I click okay I get an error stating no mirrors found. I’m assuming this isn’t what’s supposed to happen, so how can I fix it?
Probably when not connected to internet?
Nope, I’m always connected.
Did you try to reinstall reflector-simple
?
yes, but to be fair I didn’t try a de-install first. Let me try that…
EDIT: Removed reflector-simple/geoip/geoip-database and re-installed. No difference…
What does command
reflector --list-countries
show?

yeah I saw that post. I don’t have a reflector-simple.conf that I can find. Is there a default one I can get from somewhere?
[zero66@x230 ~]$ reflector --list-countries
/usr/bin/python3: No module named Reflector
[zero66@x230 ~]$
That’s what was missing! Many thanks!
Reflector is a dependency of reflector-simple, so it should have been installed by default.
