Description

Hi heroes,

I am getting issues when trying to download repository metadata from
"d.o.o", particularly:
https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/repodata/

When trying to download
https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/repodata/edc2f9dcc2cd5ad27a35d763943aeb883e3bb2e9624c6d006c05ad349f6b0bfc-primary.xml.gz

Then I get a 404 from
https://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/repodata/edc2f9dcc2cd5ad27a35d763943aeb883e3bb2e9624c6d006c05ad349f6b0bfc-primary.xml.gz

I guess this is a problem with repository/mirrors.

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Pablo

That is really weird.

mirrorservice.org does not carry the Leap 15.3 repo (according to our scanning), so why you would be redirected there, I just don't know.
If I look at

http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/repodata/edc2f9dcc2cd5ad27a35d763943aeb883e3bb2e9624c6d006c05ad349f6b0bfc-primary.xml.gz.mirrorlist

I see 61 European mirrors, but not mirrorservice.org.

Aha, I see - you are using https://download.o.o, not http://download.o.o

With that, you are first redirected to mirrorcache, then to www.mirrorservice.org. I don't know anything about mirrorcache, I'm afraid.

Exactly, I'm using "https", so:

curl -Lv https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/repodata/edc2f9dcc2cd5ad27a35d763943aeb883e3bb2e9624c6d006c05ad349f6b0bfc-primary.xml.gz

gives me the 404 while using "http" returns the actual content.

Right - and that is the work-around. mirrorbrain does not support https://

I wish I noticed this ticket earlier.
It should be fixed now, if you see similar problem in future - you can try adding parameter PEDANTIC=1 to the url, e.g.

curl -IL https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/repodata/edc2f9dcc2cd5ad27a35d763943aeb883e3bb2e9624c6d006c05ad349f6b0bfc-primary.xml.gz?PEDANTIC=1

(this parameter can be used in .repo files as well, just it may result in little longer responses.)

Overall - at the moment a weak side of mirrorcache is to detect situation when file gone from mirror after some time, this was good case to improve it.
