Description David Williams CLA 2009-06-30 17:48:46 EDT
Not sure how much this effects, but we recently produced a patch build and promoted to downloads server at 

http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/patches/drops/R3.0.5/P-P20090630121002-20090630121002/

If you click on the zip there, 

http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/patches/drops/R3.0.5/P-P20090630121002-20090630121002/wtp-P-P20090630121002-20090630121002.zip

you immediately get redirected to a mirror (no user selection) 

http://d2u376ub0heus3.cloudfront.net/webtools/patches/drops/R3.0.5/P-P20090630121002-20090630121002/wtp-P-P20090630121002-20090630121002.zip

and that mirror does not have the zip file (at least yet ... mabye it will eventually, but this can result in "downtime" for some of our users ... except we were able to work around this particular case. Just wanted to report so hopefully the system can be improved, in future.

Similar problem now, trying to use our 'staging' site to test a new discovery site: 

http://download.eclipse.org/releases/staging/content.jar

get's misredirected, such as to 

http://d2u376ub0heus3.cloudfront.net/releases/staging/content.jar

And get "access forbidden" message (in XML, returned to browser)

<Error>
<Code>AccessDenied</Code>
<Message>Access Denied</Message>
<RequestId>A5C08D8EDA915344</RequestId>
<HostId>
/o55EJVqcTBjBX3KEps3OU1sTrhjQ4hyX94EJO7sobOrF4TSL+IaeVUJgSNGGLt6
</HostId>
</Error>

Since this prevents work continuing on bug 282036, I'm going to mark as 'blocker'. 

Comment 2 David Williams CLA 2009-07-02 01:02:41 EDT
The 'staging' link works now, so guess it is no longer blocking. 

The patches zip still does not work, though. 
Comment 3 David Williams CLA 2009-07-06 22:14:35 EDT
Back to blocking. 

I created a new download directory on webtools, 24 hours ago, but since it's not replicated to AWS (I'm assuming) I just get an error message in return. For example, 

http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/temprepo/I20090611-1540/artifacts.jar

gets redirected to 

http://d2u376ub0heus3.cloudfront.net/webtools/temprepo/I20090611-1540/artifacts.jar

Which results in 

<Error>
<Code>AccessDenied</Code>
<Message>Access Denied</Message>
<RequestId>DED66CCC149D1CCC</RequestId>
&#8722;
<HostId>
T/1aVjGuRfS991YJWJVx1TYgbcPCdh0lE4eO7E4f+1/3ShviIQfHRWSSedur3NQl
</HostId>
</Error>

And, this has prevented me from getting work done. 

Comment 4 David Williams CLA 2009-07-08 03:07:23 EDT
Now, error or meaningless UID response from 

http://download.eclipse.org/releases/staging 

after being redirected to something like 

http://d2u376ub0heus3.cloudfront.net/releases/staging

sure is hard to get my work done! 
Comment 5 Denis Roy CLA 2009-07-08 15:29:25 EDT
We have removed the redirects from download.eclipse.org to AWS.  Is there anything else?
Comment 6 David Williams CLA 2009-07-08 15:50:48 EDT
Nothing as urgent as this one was. But would like your opinions on bug 282607 (build.eclipse.org should not compress response) and bug 282618 (500 error from build.eclipse.org). They can wait till next week if you're back then.
