Thanks for the verification James.

I had the caching bug, and opening s-c twice with the fixed version allows me to see the apps again. My understanding is that having to open twice is expected.

[Bug 938736] Re: For-purchase apps not showing up on Oneiric
The issue is that we have 3 applications (all PDFs) that show up fine in apps.ubuntu.com. https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/oneiric/fullcircle-issue-57/ https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/oneiric/fullcircle-it-spec-3/ https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/oneiric/fullcircle-it-issue-56/ However all three of these cannot be found in the Software Center client (5.04) in Oneiric. Michael V is not able to reproduce and I believe that Anthony is unable to reproduce the problem either. However the developer, Dave M and I can reproduce it. There is a error when the client tries to update the data from the software-center agent server. With the help of you and Dave I found that the cache of httplib2 contains the follwing in e.g.: ~/.cache/software-center/scaclient/software-center.ubuntu.com,api,2.0,applications,en,ubuntu,oneiric,i386,,d8cf7fa67c82edc14789f34f01dad0df content-location: https://software-center.ubuntu.com/api/2.0/applications/en/ubuntu/oneiric/i386/ -x-permanent-redirect-url: http://software-center.ubuntu.com/api/2.0/applications/en/ubuntu/oneiric/i386/ This causes the httplib2 code to immediately raise a error. As a workaround we need to remove the -x-permanent-redirect-url from the servers response and then figure out if/how to fix httplib2. - At first I thought it was httplib2 that was storing the https and http responses under the same file, but then I noticed that the cache filename includes an md5 sum of the complete url, including the scheme. - Confirmed by looking at a dump of davmor's cache, that there were *two* files starting with software-center.ubuntu.com,api,2.0,applications,en,ubuntu,oneiric,i386 (jpugh, could you confirm that you have two as well?), one for http and one for https, and they're redirecting the browser between each other, causing the infinite loop. - As mentioned in my previous email, requesting available apps via https bounces you over to http, but requesting them via http returns the actual list of apps, so this didn't add up with the contents of davmor's cache. - With RT #50628 we added a squid cache in front of our 2.0 API. Until then, it seems the list of apps was being served over http*s*, and requesting over http would bounce you over (exactly opposite to how it is now. This was a bug that was fixed during this RT. - This RT was set up on production on February 2. Checking the dates in the responses in davmor's cache, the redirect from http-https is from December (before the RT), and the redirect for https-http is from February 8 (after the RT), so that makes sense. - The thing with 301 responses is that they *never* get expired by httplib2's cache. They're permanent redirects, so that's technically the correct thing to do. So I don't know how many users will be affected by this, but it seems like the way to work around this would be to either: a) Modify httplib2 a bit to expire permanent redirect responses from the cache every once in a while, or b) zap the entire cache and start over every once in a while. Option a) would be tidier I think. As for a short term fix, just removing the cache (or just the entry for the http-https redirect) should get rid of the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/938736 Title: For-purchase apps not showing up on Oneiric To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/938736/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
