Dell Repository Manager unable to download catalog file

I have been trying to create a custom firmware bundle using Dell Repository Manager 2.2.4 but it is not working since last few days.

Last Friday (12/March/2021) the url https://downloads.dell.com/catalog/ was broken and not working but today it is working but catalog is not getting updated on my machine.

 

PS: I have tried running DRM from different machines but everywhere it is failing. i have created new bundles several times in the past but today it is not working..

Here is the log file which shows something must be broken somewhere.

16-03-2021 13:43:32 Error in loading new repository A duplicate value cannot be inserted into a unique index.

Hello @Prakash_K,


Can you try to use answer version of DRM? Please, check this link to the official article: Support for Dell EMC Repository Manager (DRM) https://dell.to/3llXe7u You can see here, the latest version is 3.3.1. Here you can find the download link: https://dell.to/3ljDrpo

I have been able to use both versions in the past and have created repositories several times but this time none of the versions (3.3.1 or 2.2.4)  is working. When I try creating a Repo from 3.3.1 the progress wheel kept on spinning forever and never completed.

I tried downloading the catalog.xml.gz file from internet and tried importing that file too in DRM 2.2.4 but it fails with following error.

Job Name: Import Repository
Job Status: Failed

Job Result:

A duplicate value cannot be inserted into a unique index. [ Table name = BundleSystem,Constraint name = PK__BundleSystem__0000000000000350 ]
Location: C:\Users\prakakum\Desktop\Catalog.xml.gz

Hi.

 

It looks like something is broken in the DRM SQL database on your system.

Could you please remove all versions of DRM from your system and do a clean install.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling and even I did a fresh install on a new machine alltogather, still the issue is same.

There are two different versions out there 2.2 and 3.3, Can someone tell me if the older one (2.2) is going to be discontinued by Dell as I did not see any thing as such mentioned anywhere.

Hi,

DRM 2.2 is discontinued by Dell which should be pulled off soon from Dell Support site.

It is recommended to use latest Dell EMC Repository Manager 3.3.1 version.
