ProServ

Hi, on a FreeBSD 10.4 server, tried running: freebsd-update fetch and it then displays:
Code: 
# freebsd-update fetch
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... none found.
Fetching metadata signature for 10.4-RELEASE from update.FreeBSD.org... failed.
No mirrors remaining, giving up.
Code: 
# freebsd-version -ku
10.4-RELEASE-p3
10.4-RELEASE-p5
Thank you in advance for any help.
 
I have the same problem.
Code: 
# freebsd-update fetch

Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... none found.

Fetching metadata signature for 11.2-RELEASE from update.FreeBSD.org... failed.

No mirrors remaining, giving up.

Looks fine from my end:
Code: 
root@tessierashpool:~ # freebsd-update fetch
src component not installed, skipped
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 2 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 11.2-RELEASE from update1.freebsd.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Inspecting system... done.
Preparing to download files... done.

No updates needed to update system to 11.2-RELEASE-p4.

That said, it's possible one or more of the mirrors are having problems. It sometimes happens, and it's usually fixed fairly quickly. I'll see if I can find some sort of status page for the mirrors.
