  • Describe the issue
    I am trying to setup the centos-stream-10 dnf configs to point to mirror.centos.org.
    But when I do, I continually get the following error:
  - Status code: 404 for https://download-cc-rdu01.fedoraproject.org/pub/centos-stream/10-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/os/repodata/repomd.xml (IP: 8.43.85.72)
Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'baseos': Cannot download repomd.xml: Cannot download repodata/repomd.xml:

That mirror is listed on the list of mirrors when I do

curl 'https://mirrors.centos.org/metalink?repo=centos-baseos-10-stream&arch=x86_64&protocol=https,http' -s

But if you go to it, it has no centos stuff at all. Only Fedora and EPEL mirrors.

Please remove download-cc-rdu01.fedoraproject.org from the list of centos mirrors.

  • When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    Never
  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?
    Until we get this fixed, and have a clean list of centos stream 10 mirrors, we will not be able to point our dnf configs to the mirrors. In short, it is a centos stream 10 release blocker.

ticket probably for fedora-infrastructure instead of releng (imho)

Interesting that it's not listed on https://mirrormanager.fedoraproject.org/mirrors/CentOS/10-stream, so shouldn't appear as "validated" in returned metalinks (that mirrormanager would not be able to find as they go 404)
But otoh it's listed on https://mirrormanager.fedoraproject.org/mirrors , as carrying the CentOS category

Action taken : while not part of Fedora infra team, I have access to add/remove the CentOS category on a host/mirror and as there was no Stream content at all at registered address, I just remove the category

This host took 0s to scan, it's suspicious. Was it set as always up-to-date in the database for this category maybe?

it can be .. at least, I tried from same subnet and it's not returned anymore, since I removed the CentOS category.
@tdawson : can you confirm too ?

Sorry for opening this in the wrong place.
Yes, I can confirm that download-cc-rdu01.fedoraproject.org is no longer listed in the stream-10 mirror list.
I have also confirmed that all of the servers that are listed have the stream-10 repos.
So this can be closed.
