I know that this might not be the right forum, but i'll post it here. I'll also post this in the tycho-forum.

We are trying to build an eclipse plugin with tycho (0.16.0, Maven 3,9,3) and therefore we need the graphiti 0.8.2 plugin dependencies. The 0.9.x plugins won't work, because we still use Eclipse 3.8 instead of 4.x. We noticed that from tuesday on the old 0.8.2 updatesite was no longer available an moved to http://archive.eclipse.org/graphiti/updates/0.8.2.

We also use the Juno Updatesite http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno and the http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.8 (for E3.8 Plugins).
When building, the following output appears

[INFO] Fetching 0.8.2 from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/graphiti/updates/0.8.2/&protocol=http&format=xml&countryCode=us&timeZone=1&format=xml (0B of 2,88kB at 0B/s)

At the end the build hangs till enternity. We tried out several alternatives: a local hosted grahiti updatesite, changing the order of the updatesite definitions. Nothing was successful because the Eclipse mirror link http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/graphiti/updates/0.8.2/ always happened.

Can the missing closed META-TAG result in that error and could you probably add this missing tag to the Updatesite http://archive.eclipse.org/graphiti/updates/0.8.2?

Thanks very much for help

Thomas,

thanks for pointing out. A bugzilla might have been more appropriate, but
anyhow...

Yes, on Tuesday I moved the old Graphiti releases from download.eclipse.org
to archive.eclipse.org just to free some space in the Eclipse download area
and not to bloat all the mirror servers. Part of the move was the 0.8.2
update site.

The move was just done by a simple file copy on the Eclipse servers, so
unless there were errors during that copy the site should not become broken,
especially not closed tags should not be introduced.

The reason for the download failure was that the update site still points to
the mirror url for the original location (at download.eclipse.org). This
should not be an issue if all mirrors have replicated the new state (the
download.eclipse.org location no longer exsisting). So, currently we seem to
be in an intermediate state where not yet all mirrors have picked up the new
state, so depending on your location and the mirror selection, you might get
mixed-up versions. I would expect this to disappear as soon as all mirrors
have caught up.

Nevertheless, to fix this issue immediately I have removed the mirrors url
property from the update site at
http://archive.eclipse.org/graphiti/updates/0.8.2. This fixed the download
issues for me at least (not using Maven, but a plain p2 install). Let me
know in case it stil does not work for you.

Michael

Hello Michael,

thanks for your quick support. Now everything works fine Smile
Hope that the other graphiti (archive) p2 repositories aren't affected.

Regards,

Thomas
