I'm unable to update Fedora 42 - x86_64 software using GUI software app or command line sudo dnf update due to : Status code: 503 for https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=fedora-42&arch=x86_64
sudo dnf update
Status code: 503 for https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=fedora-42&arch=x86_64
Navigating to https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f42&arch=x86_64 in a browsers(or doing a curl) returns "Sorry! This service is currently unavailable."
I have already tried sudo dnf clean all followed by sudo dnf update and sudo dnf upgrade for Fedora 42 - x86_64 - Updates but getting Status code: 503 for https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f42&arch=x86_64 and Librepo error: Cannot prepare internal mirrorlist: Status code: 503 for https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f42&arch=x86_64
sudo dnf clean all
sudo dnf upgrade

Librepo error: Cannot prepare internal mirrorlist: Status code: 503 for https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f42&arch=x86_64
Asap as it's stopping me from updating software on my fedora desktop, thanks
Same issue here, for installing and updating software is currently impossible.

I can also confirm. It looks like it works on IPv4 but it's broken on IPv6.

I saw somebody sharing on matrix that this is already resolved for them, do you still experience the issue?
Yes, it's still happening (I end up on 2a05:d014:10:7803:f774:4d7c:e277:a457)
2a05:d014:10:7803:f774:4d7c:e277:a457
It is also affecting the fedora download page: https://fedoraproject.org/workstation/download
And fedora media writer is also not able to download and is stalling on connection.

I can confirm that the software updates work if I disable ipv6 in my wifi setting, thanks
De-activating ipv6 in Wifi settings did not help. The message is:
Cannot download Packages/i/ibus-typing-booster-2.27.38-1.fc42.noarch.rpm: All mirrors were tried; Last error: Status code: 404 for http://fedora.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/fedora/linux/updates/42/Everything/x86_64/Packages/i/ibus-typing-booster-2.27.38-1.fc42.noarch.rpm (IP: 134.109.228.1)
@karin I see the package, but different version https://fedora.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/fedora/linux/updates/42/Everything/x86_64/Packages/i/ibus-typing-booster-2.27.41-1.fc42.noarch.rpm
@karin that issue is a different one and is connected to an outdated dnf data.
dnf clean all dnf update
should fix that issue. (or at least that is what would be done in the past.)
I'm still seeing 503s when the request goes via x-fedora-proxyserver: proxy36.fedoraproject.org.
x-fedora-proxyserver: proxy36.fedoraproject.org
Currently investigating the situation on proxy36. The mirrorlist service was down, but even after restarting it the people are reporting that it's still not reachable for them.
I tried to reach it directly on the machine and the service is responding fine. So I assume that the issue would be somewhere else than in mirrorlist directly.
Will continue with investigation.

I could update with this workaround: sudo dnf --setopt=ip_resolve=4 update Thanks!
It seems that the mirrorlist started working again, even for IPv6. @heartbyte Could you confirm that it's working for you again?
proxy36 has started working on my end via IPv6 :thumbsup:
Shout for @darknao finding the issue. There wasn't space on /, so the server was behaving strangely. He freed some space by running dnf clean cache, but we need to clean more space as that is not enough.
dnf clean cache
Cleaned up some space, but it seems that the proxy just need a bigger storage.
I re-enabled ipv6 and I can confirm that running curl -s -D /dev/stdout -o /dev/null -6 'https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f42&arch=x86_64' | grep HTTP now returns 200 and that dnf and gui software can both get new updates now but navigating to the url https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f42&arch=x86_64 returns a metalink.metalink file, same as in a curl, and I had the bad idea of opening up that file in my browser and now, every time I navigate to the fedora mirror url it spams new tabs at high rate and keeps saving metalink.part files of the metalink file on my filesystem... not sure what is up with that but it's a bit worrying...
curl -s -D /dev/stdout -o /dev/null -6 'https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f42&arch=x86_64' | grep HTTP
https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f42&arch=x86_64
Let me close this issue as fixed. Feel free to open new one on mirrormanager with the metalink.
