Issue with Alt-F Package installation not working

[tiaderosa]

Hi All,
I own a DNS-320 NAS with 2 3TBa Hdd (JOB configurtion) and I want to reinstall Alt-F packages because of a fail of the one Harddisk that had Alt-F and ffp folders on it.

I decided to go for a completly new installation and to flash "Alt-F-1.0-DNS-320-rev-Ax.bin" firmware after having saved my Alt-F configuation settings.

Unfortunatly I had issues to install the initial Alt-F packages from Alt-F Package Manager web inteface. When attempting to do that  I got the following error:

====================================================================
Installing Alt-F in /mnt/md0
Installing ipkg
Trying sourceforge.net... fail, no Packages file.
Trying sourceforge.net... fail, no Packages file.
You don't seem to have enabled feeds, a name server configured, or a working internet connection, and no /tmp/ipkg_*_arm.ipk file found. Exiting
====================================================================

Note that I do have "http://sourceforge.net/projects/alt-f/files/pkgs/stable" and "http://sourceforge.net/projects/alt-f/files/pkgs/unstable" package feed source set corrently and I have already executed the following command
wget --no-check-certificate https://curl.se/ca/cacert.pem -O /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.crt (compleded succesfully) before trying to install Alt_F packages.

I'm not a linux  and ssl expert but I believe the issue being still related with cerificates updates. In fact any "wget" command executed without --no-check-certificate flag always provide the same error.

For example the output of
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/alt-f/files/pkgs/stable/ipkg_0.99.163-3_arm.ipk -O /tmp/ipkg_0.99.163-3_arm.ipk
provides the following:

====================================================================

Of course I can install ipkg package via Alt-F Package Manager web interface after executing:
wget --no-check-certificate http://sourceforge.net/projects/alt-f/files/pkgs/stable/ipkg_0.99.163-3_arm.ipk -O /tmp/ipkg_0.99.163-3_arm.ipk
as the installer looks in /tmp/ folder as well.

Still I got problem with installation of other packages as dependencies are not fetch automatically and I need to provide manually all depends packages in /tmp.
.
Any help to solve this big issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Issue solved.

I deleted ca-bundle.crt file in  the  /etc/ssl/  before executing 

wget --no-check-certificate https://curl.se/ca/cacert.pem -O /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.crt

After that every thing works ok

[tiaderosa]

...but I do not understand why the  "ca-bundle.crt" file gets overwritten at each reboot with the one not working.

I need to execure "mv /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.crt" and then  "weget --no-check-certificate https://curl.se/ca/cacert.pem -O /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.crt" at each reboot

 why ?

For the record, this also allowed me to refresh the package list. Thank you so much!

Installing is not working, still. But that is another problem. 

Upgrading alt-f-utils on /Alt-F from 0.1.10 to 0.1.11...
Nothing to be done
An error ocurred, return value: 28.
Collected errors:
Only have -1458415580 available blocks on filesystem /Alt-F/, pkg alt-f-utils needs 1

I am running a Verify on the RAID1 right now. Maybe some filesystem inconsistencies?

Hi! First post here!

Having same issues...

I am receiving this kind of message:

Connecting to curl.se|2a04:4e42:c00::347|:443... failed: Address family not supported by protocol.

I beleave the problem is the lack of ipv6 support... is there a way to enable it?

[Marcio Marchini]

I had to remove the certificate and download a new one with wget first. This was discussed here. The relevant info:

—-

I deleted ca-bundle.crt file in  the  /etc/ssl/  before executing 

wget --no-check-certificate https://curl.se/ca/cacert.pem -O /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.crt

—-

Then I applied the patch “04” described in my recent msg.  Then I was able to Update the old packages on my 4TB RAID1 setup.

No issues with curl.
