RE: [p2-dev] P2 Mirror Application fails to mirror Eclipse repo

["Daffin, Miles (IT)" <Miles.Daffin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Andrew,

 

The problems I reported were during attempts to mirror the latest version of the eclipse platform repo, which is 3.4.1 I believe (released on September 24th). I need to be able to use p2 mirroring tools to create faithful mirrors of both the eclipse platform and Ganymede repos so that I can release 3.4.1 internally at my company:

 

Eclipse platform: http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.4/

Ganymede: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/ganymede/

 

Thanks,

I'm currently not willing to say one 
way or the other whether this is the cause of the failure, but "com.ibm.icu.base" 
is one of the missing packages and not being able to download it seems to be 
what is causing the catastrophic failure. I'd like to try and get the 
artifact.xml cleaned up and try testing the bug agian before we decided if that 
was the problem. 

From the tests I've 
run I'm willing to say that the problems you're having are most likely related 
specifically to the 3.4.0 repository. My understanding is that you need to be 
able to mirror this repository so I'll let you know once we get it 
working.
