Qt online installer can't access mirrors.

jlozier

The online Qt installer (qt-unified-linux-x64-4.3.0-1-online.run) is unable to access the mirrors site.

Warning: Network error while downloading 'https://qt.mirror.constant.com/online/qtsdkrepository/linux_x64/android/qt6_624_x86/2022-03-14-1037_meta.7z': Connection refused.

When I attempt to access the site directly:

https://qt.mirror.constant.com/

I'm unable to and it appears to be down.
Are there alternatives or is there any news that this service is down?

Hi, and welcome!

Looks like this specific mirror is down.

Try manually setting a different mirror: https://wiki.qt.io/Online_Installer_4.x#Selecting_a_mirror_for_opensource

@JKSH Thanks for your response.

This was the correct answer:

./qt-unified-linux-x64-4.3.0-1-online.run --mirror https://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/qt

I needed to ensure that I was using the linux_x64 variant of the mirrors:
https://download.qt.io/online/qtsdkrepository/linux_x64/root/qt/Updates.xml.mirrorlist

I imagine the generic formula would be:
https://download.qt.io/online/qtsdkrepository/<HOST MACHINE>/root/qt/Updates.xml.mirrorlist

I appreciate your help!
