Note: It was working fine till yesterday

Odd. Are you sure the fedora-updates.repo hasn't been changed?

There were not any bodhi or updates-sync changes recently that I can think of.

@adrian can you see whats going on here?

No, I didn't change content in fedora-updates.repo . Should be easily reproducible if one has F29 ppc64le vm access.
* Run sudo dnf clean all and then install anything sudo dnf install Shellcheck

It seems that the updates-modular is failing also see https://github.com/fedora-cloud/docker-brew-fedora/issues/61

seems mirrormanager returns the wrong URLs

So MirrorManager is pointing to a directory which does not exist. This seems to be the usual problem. A repository was published, MirrorManager picked it up, a while later the paths were changed. MirrorManager cannot handle paths that are changing.

Oh, this was actually predicted here: https://pagure.io/releng/issue/7844

I deleted the wrong entries from the database and MirrorManager already picked up the new repositories. It should be fixed soon (not more than 2 hours).

Please re-open if this is not fixed in 2 hours.
