[SOLVED] Pacman - first too slow and then fails to commit transaction.

I tried to upgrade my system with 'pacman -Syu' command. First it gave error:

Operation too slow. Less than 1024 bytes/sec transferred the last 10 seconds

Then i try again and different error appears at this time:

error: failed to commit transaction (wrong or NULL argument passed)

I generated mirrorlist with http://www.archlinux.org/mirrorlist/ but no help. Anyone know how to fix this?

Did you run

pacman -Syy

After changing mirrors?

Re: [SOLVED] Pacman - first too slow and then fails to commit transaction.

Do you have your architecture specified? Like this if you have 64 bits:

Server = ftp://mirror.rit.edu/archlinux/$repo/os/x86_64

Another suggestion is to make another mirror the first one and see if this is faster.
