Varnish cache broken on repo.almalinux.org

Currently, I’m not able to use repo.almalinux.org for kickstarting a machine. I get a 503 message when trying to access https://repo.almalinux.org/almalinux/9.4/BaseOS/x86_64/kickstart/images/install.img

I can confirm this behaviour, our foreman had trouble to sync almalinux9 base today.

Issue still persist, we switched away from repo.almalinux.org and selected a specfic server from https://mirrors.almalinux.org

Is is still an issue? It should’ve been fixed last week. The URL you provided 404s because the metadata has already moved beyond that.

If you’re still facing issues please let me know the URL.

Not sure if it’s still an issue, as we’ve switched to a mirror like @tineidae did.

Yes, its easy to test, just go to Index of /almalinux/9/BaseOS/x86_64/os/repodata/ and try to download the largest file which is.

https://repo.almalinux.org/almalinux/9/BaseOS/x86_64/os/repodata/dddb226216d79ad496144bda1c4a8e94550381e17605dad3ae013945c6a52386-primary.sqlite.bz2

That still leads to:

Depending on the region i try to pull that file, its fra (Frankurt) or ams (Amsterdam), dont know how this cache works, maybe other regions are also effected.

Thanks for the info. This is fixed now. 3 pesky letters were missing from the config.

I can confirm that the repos are working.
