Description

If you do not provide http(s) then you will end up with the following error:

ultron:~ # /usr/share/openqa/script/clone_job.pl --from openqa.opensuse.org --skip-chained-deps --host `hostname -f` -v 356589 TESTDEBUG=1
unexpected return code: 301 Moved Permanently at /usr/share/openqa/script/clone_job.pl line 189.

Workaround, is to use http(s):// in the hostname:

ultron:~ # /usr/share/openqa/script/clone_job.pl --from https://openqa.opensuse.org --skip-chained-deps --host `hostname -f` -v 356589 TESTDEBUG=1

I would like the error message to say something like: please use http(s):// or (better) add the missing http(s):// part automatically in the background.

This is more regarding infrastructure than how jobs are being scheduled.

An excerpt from the documentation shows the following, implicitly explaining how to interact with remote hosts.

clone_job.pl --from https://openqa.opensuse.org --host localhost 24 TESTDEBUG=1 SKIPTO=consoletest-yast2_i

I see no point in adding a check for error codes like this (Because then... you have also 404, 500, and so on), I more value would be in adding a pitfall to express similar situations in the docs.

30X are no errors, they are redirects - and normal HTTP clients follow them. So before you add anything to the docs - rather change the client.

agreed. client can be improved and also it's good practice to always try https if not forced by the user to not use it.
