Hi

D-Link 825
Router             ModelD-Link DIR-825 rev. B1
Firmware Version    OpenWrt Attitude Adjustment r33080 /LuCI Trunk (trunk+svn9011)
Kernel Version        2.6.39.4

When I press "Update list" in the System->Software menu it reports the following error

Downloading /Packages.gz.
wget: not an http or ftp url: /Packages.gz
Collected errors:
 * opkg_download: Failed to download /Packages.gz, wget returned 1.

The configuration looks like this, I have tried several different url's but it did not work

src/gz http://downloads.openwrt.org/attitude_adjustment/12.09-beta/ar71xx/generic/packages
dest root /
dest ram /tmp
lists_dir ext /var/opkg-lists
option overlay_root /overlay

I assume the configuration is worng but I have no idea what to write, please help



Regards Stefan

You need to add an identifier after "src/gz", like this:

src/gz attitude_adjustment http://downloads.openwrt.org/attitude_adjustment/12.09-beta/ar71xx/generic/packages
