Package: apt-cacher-ng Version: 0.7.11-1 Severity: normal Almost daily I get email from apt-cacher-ng's crontab with the following:
/etc/cron.daily/apt-cacher-ng: Error(s) occured while updating volatile index files for apt-cacher-ng. Please visit http://despair:3142/acng-report.html to rerun the expiration manually or check the error message(s) in the current log file(s). Please check error messages in one of: /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/maint_1391003222.log.html /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/maint_1390919751.log.html /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/maint_1390832920.log.html /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/maint_1390746229.log.html /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/maint_1390656777.log.html When I check the log files I only find these errors: $ grep -c Error /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/apt-cacher.err 38 $ grep Error /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/apt-cacher.err Wed Jan 29 06:47:26 2014|Error resolving debrep: 503 DNS error for hostname debrep: Name or service not known. If debrep refers to a configured cache repository, please check the corresponding configuration file. ...repeats discarded... When I look for debrep I only find these matches: # find /etc/apt-cacher-ng -type f -exec grep -i debrep {} + /etc/apt-cacher-ng/acng.conf:Remap-debrep: file:deb_mirror*.gz /debian ; file:backends_debian # Debian Archives /etc/apt-cacher-ng/acng.conf:# PrecacheFor: debrep/dists/unstable/*/source/Sources* debrep/dists/unstable/*/binary-amd64/Packages* I don't understand debrep but it doesn't seem like it should be looking up debrep as a DNS name. I think somewhere it has gotten confused and thinks that is a hostname. I haven't made any local customizations and am simply using the stock package configuration. What further information can I provide to help debug this problem? And most importantly to silence the daily crontab messages. :-) Thank you for maintaining apt-cacher-ng. It is wonderful.
