Description

2023/05/02 19:21:10 [error] 14497#14497: *130639 directory index of "/srv/ftp/pub/opensuse/" is forbidden, client: 2a03:7520:4c68:1:e591:ceb8:4127:2be4, server: provo-downloadcontent.opensuse.org, request: "GET / HTTP/2.0", host: "provo-downloadcontent.opensuse.org"

Surely that is not right?

  • Private changed from Yes to No

from /etc/nginx/vhosts.d/000-downloadcontent.conf

    location / {
      root   /srv/ftp/pub/opensuse/;
      autoindex on;
      index  index.html index.htm;
      aio threads;
    }

Hmm, I guess it is intended, but we still had 12756184 requests for the directory today, really filling up the error log.

From 2643 unique clients, so not just some random misconfiguration.

Hi @bmwiedemann,

is this intentional behavior?

All downloadcontent.o.o servers have directory listing disabled. We even added an explanation page at
http://downloadcontent.opensuse.org/

The main reason is to discourage spiders from downloading everything.

Thanks, could you install the same explanation page at provo-downloadcontent.opensuse.org or make it a redirect to downloadcontent.o.o?
