Problem Install SDK - Due to New PR1.2 Release or ?

Hope someone can please advise...

Been trying off and on the past few days to get the Maemo 5 SDK installed on my laptop running latest Ubuntu 10.04.

Using the GUI SDK Installer app <maemo-sdk-install-wizard_5.0.py>, I get as far as step 4/9 'Installing SDK Targets', then it always fails when it gets to part:

Code:

Running apt-get update on 'FREMANTLE ARMEL'.

Err http://repository.maemo.org fremantle/sdk Release.gpg

     Temporary failure resolving 'repository.maemo.org'

Err http://repository.maemo.org fremantle/tools Release.gpg

     Temporary failure resolving 'repository.maemo.org'

Failed to fetch http://repository.maemo.org/dists/fremantle/sdk/Release.gpg Temporary failure resolving 'repository.maemo.org'

Failed to fetch http://repository.maemo.org/dists/fremantle/tools/Release.gpg Temporary failure resolving 'repository.maemo.org'

Reading package lists



The installation process was unable to run 'apt-get update' inside the installed targets in order to update the local package database.

This could be due to an error in network configuration inside scratchbox. 

Common causes are incorrect proxy settings and the 'hosts' line in /scratchbox/etc/nswitch.conf.

For the 'hosts' line in /scratchbox/etc/nswitch.conf the following should usually be enough:

hosts:    files dns



Once network issues have been resolved, you should run the installer again.

V  [14:33:12 26.05.2010]: Failed to install SDK

   File "maemo-sdk-install-wizard_5.0.py", line 2652, in   

    _taskInstallSdk raise Exception ("Failed to install SDK")



Exception: Failed to install SDK

V  [14:33:12 26.05.2010]: Executor set exit status to (status_error)  

......

Is this problem have anything to do with new PR1.2 release or just server issues or ???

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Mark

Just use Nokia Qt SDK (with MADDE).

It works like a charm!

OK, will check that out....

Thanks!

Re: Problem Install SDK - Due to New PR1.2 Release or ?

Running SDK fine on Ubuntu 10.04. This seems to be a network/DNS issue, are you running any firewall etc on your machine ? How about adding an entry for "repository.maemo.org" in /etc/hosts and trying again ?

Can you clarify what the entry should look like in /etc/hosts?

Should it look like this:

Code:

92.123.72.74 repository.maemo.org

Thanks....

Re: Problem Install SDK - Due to New PR1.2 Release or ?

I get two addresses if I do a nslookup for repository.maemo.org:

92.33.33.169
92.33.33.136

Having one of those in your /etc/hosts just as you showed above might very well give some result. And perhaps whatever service that is used for DNS by maemo.org should be chcked to see if it can cope with the onslaught.

I got numbers that I showed when I did IP lookup...

I did try what I showed and the good news is that installer can connect with repository during install process...but the bad news is that I'm still only getting part way through step 4 of 9, when at some point install process gets too many errors, fails, and stops install....

Should I 'start fresh' with install somehow? ie, remove whatever has been installed so far and then try install? If so, how do you that?

Or any other ideas as to how get installer to work? Really bugs me that I can't get this installed!

Thanks!

Not sure if it has anything to do with your problem, but I tried updating the SDK to PR1.2, and it get stuck on the update window step. Happens since yesterday.

Well, maybe there is something going on with Nokia servers????.....and thus maybe it's not me screwing things up for a change.... ;)

Re: Problem Install SDK - Due to New PR1.2 Release or ?

Just upgraded the packages on my SDK and it worked without any problems.
OS is Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit.
