Description Ladislav Slezák 2009-03-11 12:04:01 UTC

Originally reported as part of bug #464727 - recursive download failed when a HTTP repo was used. When the same repo was used over NFS it was OK.

Downloaded directory.yast file was empty, no error, but obviously the content was not downloaded when the listing file was empty.

See bug #464727 for more details (logs).

Looking at the log I see /boot/directory.yast being downloaded several times, with size 6 and content "i386/". I don't know what happened at 11:20:06 on the server, but /directory.yast and /boot/directory.yast are downloaded and have size 0. There's no indication of an error.

And without directory.yast no recursive download is possible. The file says the directory is empty, so there is nothing to do.


Via NFS directory.yast is not needed, because we can do ::readdir.

So, a server-side error? Bart, do you still have this problem? Can you reliably reproduce it?

No response, closing. Feel free to reopen the bug if you can provide the requested info.
