Bug#581169: HEAnet sourceforge mirror: permission denied errors

Sourceforge use triggered push mirroring and their own rsync scripts to distribute content to mirrors, they also largely obscure the underlying directory structure on each mirror with HTTP redirects/rewrites and such, so it's not really intended to be read directly via rsync or ftp for example. Generally, permissions are set for a reason so we don't interfere with their mirror process unless they report any issues to us. Although it is possible that the unreadable directories were left there in error, so I'll check with the sourceforge admins and get back to you. rg -- Rob Gallagher | Public Key: 0x1DD13A78 HEAnet Limited, Ireland's Education and Research Network 1st Floor, 5 George's Dock, IFSC, Dublin 1.

Bug#581169: HEAnet sourceforge mirror: permission denied errors
Hi HEAnet mirror operators, The Debian project[1] QA group[2] is currently relying[3] on this command to detect new versions of software that is packaged in Debian: rsync -Pvan --log-file=/dev/null --list-only ftp.heanet.ie::sourceforge Currently that produces the following errors, would it be possible for you to grant read permissions on these directories and to alter your mirroring process so it automatically fixes any permissions issues propagated from your upstream, presumably sourceforge itself? That said, when I visit the locations below via my web browser on the sourceforge site, I am able to view and download the relevant files via my local mirror, so this issue might be specific to HEAnet. Are you interested in us adding mirr...@heanet.ie to the MAILTO field in the cron job that runs the above rsync command? This would enable you to be notified whenever there are issues with your sourceforge mirror. rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/1242/0 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/1551/0 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/1622 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/1736 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/1795 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/1804/1 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/1811/2 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/1858 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/1933 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/2038 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/2040 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/2195 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/2290 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/2418 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/252 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/2524/0 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/2542 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/2577 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/2730 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/2991 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/3007 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/3329 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/3475 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/4 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/402/1 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/5 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/5015 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/627 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/673/0 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: opendir /a/ao/aoo-extensions/847/0 (in sourceforge) failed: Permission denied (13) 1. http://www.debian.org/ 2. http://qa.debian.org/ 3. http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/qa/trunk/data/watch/update-sf-list?view=markup -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
