Hello
After the update of Entaware do yesterday from amtm, when I check if some update exist, during the Entaware check I see this error:
! Entware: bin.entware.net unreachable
Third party script update(s) available! Use
the scripts own update function to update.

How can I resolve the problem ?

Sorry... router rt-ac86u with last alfa 384.18

Thanks
Stefano
 
Hardware failure. It will take a while.
 
Concur, wget reports error 8. My guess is that they are still working on restoration. We just need to be patient.

Edit: Sorry, the wget error is coming up when a opkg upgrade is run.
 

Thanks @Jack Yaz ! I agree, but don't see where that's set.

For context, I was in the middle of an update when entware.net went down yesterday. I uninstalled Diversion, but the Entware install wasn't properly/cleanly removed. When I try to reinstall Diversion today, the pixelserv install fails because of the error above. Any thoughts on where the duplicate portion of the path is coming from or how to clean up?
 
Still down. can't install p7zip i get this error;

Code:
admin@RTAC68U:/tmp/home/root# opkg install p7zip
Installing p7zip (16.02-3) to root...
Downloading http://bin.entware.net/armv7sf-k2.6/armv7sf-k2.6/p7zip_16.02-3_armv7-2.6.ipk
Collected errors:
 * opkg_download: Failed to download http://bin.entware.net/armv7sf-k2.6/armv7sf-k2.6/p7zip_16.02-3_armv7-2.6.ipk, wget returned 8.
 * opkg_install_pkg: Failed to download p7zip. Perhaps you need to run 'opkg update'?

Opkg.conf

Code:
src/gz entware http://bin.entware.net/armv7sf-k2.6
dest root /
dest ram /opt/tmp
lists_dir ext /opt/var/opkg-lists
option tmp_dir /opt/tmp
arch all 100
arch armv7-2.6 160
 
The source directory in opkg.conf looks ok to me.

Trying to upgrade entware via amtm or by shell (opkg update, opkg upgrade) both fail (wget returns 8)

I was able to upgrade by running

Code:
wget -qO - http://pkg.entware.net/binaries/mipsel/installer/upgrade.sh | sh
 
Code:
wget -qO - http://pkg.entware.net/binaries/armv7/installer/entware.armv7-upgrade.sh | sh

Mine is an arm based router, 68U, ran the command, updates, but can't run opkg install p7zip etc i get error 8 wget.
 
It's not recommended, but if one fixes this at the wrong place, the manual update runs just fine.
As I said elsewhere, wait until the Repo is fully restored before attempting to update, manually or not.
what i'm unsure about is why it seems to be duplicating the architecture/kernel!

This seems like the best path forward to me as well.

Looks like repo updates are underway as of about 15 mins ago my time:

Does Entware have it's own thread and guide on how to use it?

Thanks

No, but entering this into the terminal is all you need:
Code:
opkg --help
