Hans, Do I understand you correctly that adding new installation source fails with some strange error but when you try to connect to this server by some ftp client or internet browser, you get the response: Too many users? Do you think that you should be informed about `too many users`? It shouldn't do any difference when using source with or without trailing or opening slashes. / - / jsrain: it seems that the `curl` command could be handled better. What do you think of, for instance, `curl -v` to get more info? `curl ftp://ftp.opensuse.org//pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS-beta1/inst-source-java/IS_PLAINcache.gz` --- output --- curl: (8) This doesn't seem like a nice ftp-server response --- output --- `curl -v ftp://ftp.opensuse.org//pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS-beta1/inst-source-java/IS_PLAINcache.gz` --- output --- * About to connect() to ftp.opensuse.org port 21 * Trying 195.135.221.130... * connected * Connected to ftp.opensuse.org (195.135.221.130) port 21 < 421 There are too many connected users, please try later. * This doesn't seem like a nice ftp-server response * Closing connection #0 curl: (8) This doesn't seem like a nice ftp-server response --- output --- I could enhance (?) that if you (I hope you are the current maintainer) and Andreas agree. That migh be quite useful...

Yes. Exactly. > Do you think that you should be informed about `too many users`? Would be nice, but more importantly, and if you don't want to annoy your users into their bones in this situation, please keep/restore the user provided input of the dialog on retry! Please! > It shouldn't do any difference when using source with or without trailing or > opening slashes. Well, it did not too long ago.. Will test this and give feedback. Hmm, that's strange I thought that it keeps that settings when you [ Try Again ]. If the Install-Source-Adding fails, it should ask you whether you want to try it again then you are redirected back to the Add-Install-Source dialog to (for instance) try to change some entries and you can try it again. Is it what you are asking for? Actually, I don't have any running SL 10.0 here but SL 9.3 does it so. > ...it should ask you whether you want to try it

Yes, it says, that the installation source cannot be created from ftp://..
(translated from german) and finally asks: Try again? <Yes> <No>.
When selecting <Yes>, it presents a fresh new Installation source input
dialog. [Further comments suppressed.. ;-)]
Remembering the entered data has already been fixed. Test it with Beta2, please. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 102996 *** Reopening :) for the { 'Too many users' issue }
Please, think about all possible errors with the FTP installation source. Since this is open-beta we could have a serious problem with bugs like this one. Here mentioned bug is: "Too many users" which is returned by the FTP server but not handled by YaST. For instance: http://www.the-eggman.com/seminars/ftp_error_codes.html http://www.rpgamers.net/Games/Tutorials/FTPErrors.cfm (421 Too many users) Comment #7 should be fixed by now. |
