Infinite waiting for Arch Linux Keyring (archlinux-keyring-wkd-sync) synchronization to complete. (Lastest version) #2679

Open Heyo7726 opened 2 months ago

How i got this: First i got an error:

Time synchronisation not completing, while you wait- check the docs for workarounds: https://archinstall.readthedocs.io/

then did:

timedatectl set-time "current date/time" archinstall --skip-ntp made Automatic time sync (NTP) false/no

then got:

Waiting for Arch Linux Keyring (archlinux-keyring-wkd-sync) synchronization to complete.

waited for around 30m and still on the same thing.

possible fixes that i already did: sudo pacman -Sy archinstall pacman-key --init pacman-key --populate pacman-key --refresh-keys sudo pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring

You would also need to terminate/restart the archlinux-keyring-wkd-sync.service as this is what we're waiting for.

This is however the second time I've seen this specific report in 2 weeks so I'll look into how we could optimize this situation.

I have the same issue as @Heyo7726. I'm a complete newbie with Linux so I'm not well versed in this arena. But I thought I would mention that I have the issue too.

Same issue when run archinstall. 😢 archlinux-keyring-wkd-sync.service and timer is dead, and can't start.

Usually that's due to network related reasons. I really wish the timer/service in question would have more debug output..
