Canadian Update Mirror URL Change?

[Hygelac]

Has the URL of the Ubuntu updates Canadian mirror changed? It used to be at http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu, but this no longer seems to exist when I check it.

If it has indeed changed, where is it now?

I have just experienced the same thing. I am in a hurry to update a computer for a friend, so I had to use the main mirror (I removed the "ca." from the sources in my list, using synaptic.)

I guess it is just a problem with the server I doubt they are changing the name. Maybe it is a dns propagation thing, too, if they changed the location of the server?

I just used this post to correct the situation,

Alright; so it's not just me. :???:

The reason I think the URL may have changed is because I can still interact with the server in a web browser (even downloading from it this way); which I would think means that the server is still running (http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com). There seems to have once been a folder in it called «Ubuntu», but it is no longer there (unlike the regular http://archive.ubuntu.com, which still has its «Ubuntu» folder), hence the repository trouble.

http://archive.ubuntu.com? Thanks; I'll use that for now.

I changed my sources.list for apt to work with ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ and guess what... The files are corrupted. Something is happening with the canadian mirror.

So I guess I'll use archive.ubuntu.com for the time being

It's working fine now...

It's working fine now...

guess I should have made a backup of my original. :oops:

It seems the Canadian mirrors are acting up again at ca.archive.ubuntu.com (129.97.134.71). My gutsy distro can't connect to it while it can still reach the security repository @ security.ubuntu.com.

Any others to confirm this?
