Hi All! I am trying to update my desktop Fedora Core 4 (using yum 2.3.2) machine at work, using a rather large WAN. I am getting the error: [Errno -1] Header is not complete. Strangely, I am getting this error after yum downloads the entire file, not just the header data. I searched for help on this, and found this article mentioning the Cisco Content Engine not supporting http byte-ranged requests. https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/pipermail/yum/2005-April/006459.html I am in a rather large company network, and I don't have a timely way to verify the network structure (or the knowledge of networking) to see what the problem is, I was hoping someone on this list could help me out. I have reproduced the yum session below. The interesting thing is that on a few mirrors, I get an HTTP 403 error instead of the above error. When that error comes back, the one line says: Via: 1.1 webproxy-east1 (NetCache NetApp/5.5R2) I was wondering if this is pointing out that the proxy on my end is the NetApp device, and whether this could be the problem. I found another thread on the list (https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/pipermail/yum/2005-June/006748.html) suggesting a software fix for yum to fix this problem. I was wondering if any work had been done on this, as I did not see it listed in Bugzilla. Thanks for any help! -Bill [root@sweb-dev bwacek]# yum update Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories updates-released 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 extras 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 base 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 Reading repository metadata in from local files primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 121 kB 00:01 updates-re: ################################################## 346/346 Added 33 new packages, deleted 0 old in 1.79 seconds Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.
