Lite Upgrade (3.4 to 3.6) via a proxy server doesn't work

[humdinger70]

[member=6217]humdinger70[/member] it looks like you you actually got to the repo with wget in that link you provided. So, I will just increase the timeout to see if that solves the problem.


Change line 495 in /usr/bin/lite-upgrade-series3 to:

Code:

wget -qnv -t2 -T8 --ignore-length --max-redirect=1  --spider http://repo.linuxliteos.com/linuxlite/db/version

that's -t2 ( two tries ) in -T8 (in 8 seconds) ... which should be plenty to connect to the server. It looks like the issue is your machine just taking to long to "talk" to the server. Or even better, the current -t2 -T1 is just way too low of a value for some cases. Hope that helps.

Thanks. That did it. I'm now on 3.6 )although all the Lite Sources repositories are marked as 'TIMED OUT'.
