pacman: connection timed out after 10000 milliseconds.
Hi: Every time I use pacman -S I get the following message:
Code:
error: failed retrieving file 'xxxxxxxxxxxxx' from mirrors.xjtu.edu.cn : connection timed out after 10000 milliseconds.
And for each package I must wait 10 seconds, irrespective of the package size. Worse: I was doing pacstrap /mnt base and, for each package, at least 10 seconds. A way to solve this?
pacstrap ends outputing this message:
Code:
ERROR: Failed to install packages to new root

I would think it's the mirrorlist and you need to update it.
Mirrorlist generator
https://www.archlinux.org/mirrorlist/
Pic 5 of them and replace the above file to /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
after that issue this command:
You can also install package pacman-contrib this will give you mirrorlist rankings by speed
If you install that package Pacman -S pacman-contrib backup the mirrorlist
Code:
cp /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.backup
From there you can rank them by running this command:
Code:
rankmirrors -n 6 /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.backup > /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

I live in Argentina. I must uncomment the lines hwich I think can be done with search and replace (vim). I left "use mirror staatus unchecked". Now I'll try to rank them by speed.

If it's not that then the second place you can look is your DNS settings.

Did you check /etc/resolv.conf ? did you try ping to actually see if you have internet access?

Of course I have internet access. pacman downloads every thing. Only that it waits 10000ms before actually downloading (it finds another url).
Code:
bill@darkstar/etc$ cat resolv.conf

I replaced mirrorlist and no more connection timed outs. But when it checks package integrity it finds errors. Finally it says:
Code:
Error: failed to commit transaction. Errors ocurred. No packages were upgraded.
This in response to 'pacman -Syu'.

I did 'pacman -Syyu' and got

and the same for other packages. Finally I get

you could simply delete the whole pacman cache, then try again.
I'll put one on top:
maybe you still need to do something after that; i suggest reading
