Answer 1

It works for me (even with the sat801@ in the URL) so all I can do is guess. The most likely reason is a problem writing to the repository on your local disk. Check if any of the following are true:

1. You are trying to write to a read-only filesystem;

2. You don't have permission to write where the repository resides;

3. Your disk is full;

4. You have filesystem corruption;

5. You have a failing drive.
