Unable to update system since installing Garuda

Hello, I am fairly inexperienced with arch linux, and I recently installed Garuda as a dual boot along windows to use and become more familiar. I have experience using CLI commands but still lack a lot of understanding how the architecture works to diagnose and fix problems.

The problem: Since installing Garuda I have been unable to run a single system update successfully. To update, I end up using the Rani “Garuda Update Fix” utility since garuda and chaotic-aur db system updates never complete when using the garuda-update command. The following error always occurs. Any help would be greatly appreciated since I have yet to find a solution. Me creating this post is reflective of my desperation in finding a solution as I have never created a forum post.

**Moderators, please do not close or resolve this thread until sufficient evidence shows the issue is fixed. Saying an update on Garudas backend will fix the issue does not mean your tweaks or updates are sufficient for my issue. This is something I routinely see in this forum, and I find myself unable to find suitable solutions in other threads due to these responses. With kindest regards.

Hello, I am in the United States in the southwest. My ISP is a local ISP that provides FTH, but it not a large corporate cable or ISP.

You can only have one instance of pacman running at any one time.

If you are sure you are not running any other instances of pacman, you can force delete the lock file: rm /var/lib/pacman/db.lck and try again.

Okay I don’t understand this at this point…

Try this please:

wget https://de-4-mirror.chaotic.cx/chaotic-aur/x86_64/chaotic-keyring-20250614-1-any.pkg.tar.zst

and if that doesn’t work:

wget https://chaotic.pl4ygr0und.de/chaotic-aur/chaotic-aur/x86_64/chaotic-keyring-20250614-1-any.pkg.tar.zst

Report full logs for both regardless of outcome please.

I suspect your internet connection just… isn’t fit for downloading anything. I recommend trying another internet connection.

Perhaps ipv4/ ipv6 problem ?
Networkmanager settings for wifi connection are default ?

Yes, if possible use cable. (only as test)

I recommend an entirely different internet connection all together at this point.

You mean, the local isp can be the reason ?

I’m not saying that but I’m also not not saying that

Hello,

It was able to download. Below is the output. I will send logs separately – the output was too big.

Everything points to everything working correctly

Would using Cloudflare’s dns be a potential issue?

No. The issue appears to be after the fact connection was already made in some cases. (Too slow)

Out of curiosity, how long did the wget command from earlier take to fully download the file?

Almost instantaneously. I have had issues with trying to get my internet connection stable when using linux. I just can’t seem to get my intel wifi to work properly. Ive tried disabling BT Coex, disabling power saving, changing kernels, etc. I just haven’t had access to or reinstall packages from the package manager to try to fix.

Since this kinda confirms the issue, would you like me to close this issue and open a new one for trying to fix the wifi?
