No server has been configured for the repository

General system Pacman & AUR helpers
1

Good morning, this morning I’m trying to update the system, I do it once a week but it gives me this error “error: unable to synchronize all databases (no server has been configured for the repository)” it’s the first time this has happened to me, maybe the servers are not active today or there is some problem with my operating system, thanks.

If you have a /etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist.pacnew then copy it to /etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist

bash: /etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist: Permission denied

Please follow the link @keescase posted above.

You don’t put that in a terminal. That’s path to a file not a command. Please read what I wrote before.

I went looking for the file and found it. What should I do? Copy the line “/etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist.pacnew” to “/etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist.” A text reader opens. I try to insert this line, but it says permission denied. Can you explain further? I’m not very knowledgeable about this. Thanks.

Here you go. In a terminal, do:

sudo cp /etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist.pacnew /etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist

When you enter your password, it will look like nothings happening.

I tried to enter that string you gave me from the terminal but it doesn’t update, it gives me the error no server is configured, it doesn’t ask me for a password it just says permission denied

Look at the second message, to solve the problem.

14

I don’t understand anything

15

basically, run these commands:

sudo touch /etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist
eos-rankmirrors
16

Just copy/paste this to a terminal

sudo touch /etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist
eos-rankmirrors
17

Thanks, I ran this command and the update started. Thank you very much.
