9.0.2 Unable to install/update from CoreELEC repo

Kodi Add-ons

Are you trying that from a browser? Pretty sure that will always give a 403.

the 403 is in the log,
i havent had any problems with the repo, just today.
i just commented to help the above off speederer as ive been using the repo fine previous.
i tried off a fresh img, clean setup etc.
i just assumed it was down tempoprary.
can you install from the core repo? i cant at this time,

43

No, you’re right - I tried a few and they all failed. Usually if a repo’s down you can’t browse the contents though, so this is an odd one.

it can happen on rare occasions, did with libre etc, never for long, im sure it will be online soon.
it was just so people didnt think it was their setup.

Maybe I didn’t emphasize that I could download the zip files from the original location (e.g. (404) The page you were looking for doesn't exist.) with wget at the same time as the addon update dropped an “update failed” message.
Also downloading with curl is working fine at the moment.
So I don’t think it was connection or repository problem.

if I remember correctly I removed the repository.coreelec folder after the 9.0.1 update to solve problems with TVH.

Same situation is here.
Can this cause the current problem?

you still can install and download the zip files, that url etc is fine.
if you did a fresh img youd see the coreelec repo wont open at this moment.
personally id just hold on a bit till repo opens properly, i dont think it will be too long.

should be good now, give it a try,

I have the same problem again after I upgraded to 9.2:

You need to go to the addons section and do a check for updates, to refresh you addon repositories.
