This was what I mentioned to Danek earlier in the week, but I guess he didn't pass this along when he bounced your e-mail back to the list. For a problem like this: I responded to a similar thread last week, but received no follow-up. http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/pkg-discuss/2009-July/014893.html Basically, we need to figure out why you're getting a read error on the tar stream. a. Do you have mirrors configured? If so, you may be requesting a file from a mirror that doesn't have the content b. Your tar stream may be getting corrupted/truncated c. The server may not have the file you requested. d. Something else is wrong If you're getting 0x00 bytes back, it's likely that you're getting an empty tar stream as a result (a or c). This means that the client has requested a file that the server doesn't have. Can you snoop again and capture the headers (and content) of the request that the client is making to the server? This will give us a chance to figure out what file is being requested that's absent on the server. -j _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
