Remote Virgo server sending a 404 [message #794505]

This is an odd one.

I have two different Virgo servers that act alternatively as remote repositories for a Virgo kernel client and I have absolutely no problem getting client and server to talk to each other with both of these remote servers.

I am now trying to switch to a new remote repository and, when trying to retrieve artefacts from it, I keep on getting an HTTP 404 error.

In comparing the config of this new server with one of the ones that work via the Virgo admin console, I see that, in the Configuration tab, the org.eclipse.virgo.apps.repository config set is not present in the faulty server, hence, I think, my 404.

Why would that be? I have checked the artefacts in the pickup directory of the server in question, and they are all there as expected (particularly theorg.eclipse.virgo.apps.repository-x.y.z.RELEASE.par that another thread mentioned might be missing).

What else can be wrong?

Please note that I am trying to wire up a kernel and a remote server that are at somewhat different versions (kernel at 3.0.0.RELEASE and remote web server at 3.0.2.RELEASE). Could that be my problem?

TIA,
B.

I suggest you try diffing config/org.eclipse.virgo.apps.repository.properties with that from a working server to see if there is some junk in there. The absence of that configuration is definitely related to the problem you are seeing. If the properties file is good, then you'll need to debug the loading of the properties file which I think you can intercept here:

http://virgo-opengrok.springsource.org/xref/virgo/org.eclipse.virgo.kernel/org.eclipse.virgo.kernel.core/src/main/java/org/eclipse/virgo/kernel/config/internal/ConfigurationInitialiser.java

IIRC, 3.0.x instances should communicate happily.
