Hi James, I tried downloading the file from my mirror (<a href="http://sgp1.old.aslo.cf">sgp1.old.aslo.cf</a>) and it worked a charm. The Arrnet http mirror is more than 1 month old! Maybe change your code (just for this run) to use the address of my mirror instead of <a href="http://download.sugarlabs.org">download.sugarlabs.org</a> so you don't get arrnet. Stats (now correct!) are here: <a href="http://mirrors.sugarlabs.org">http://mirrors.sugarlabs.org</a> +bernie, I thought mirrorbrain managed this stuff :( Sam <div class="gmail_quote">On Aug 11, 2014 1:45 PM, "James Cameron" <<a href="mailto:quozl@laptop.org">quozl@laptop.org</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> On Sat, Aug 09, 2014 at 06:37:43PM -0400, Bernie Innocenti wrote: > On 08/09/2014 06:26 PM, Bernie Innocenti wrote: > > On 08/09/2014 06:16 PM, Bernie Innocenti wrote: > >> (dropping a bunch of redundant addresses from the cc list) > >> > >> I noticed a strange pattern: all the rsync mirrors appear to be broken, > >> but in fact they're all responsive and up to date (the timestamp.txt > >> file is fresh). > >> > >> Looks like Mirmon's health check over rsync is broken in some way. > > > > Ok, found the cause with strace: > > > > $ strace -f -e execve mirmon -v -get all -c /etc/mirmon.conf > > [...] > > [pid 11135] execve("/usr/bin/wget", ["/usr/bin/wget", "-q", "-O", "-", > > "-T", "30", "-t", "1", "rsync://<a href="http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub" target="_blank">mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub</a>"...], [/* 40 > > vars */]Process 11124 detached > > > > It's using wget with an rsync url :-( > > Ok, looks like the default /etc/mirmon.conf shipped with the Ubuntu > package doesn't support rsync.

I still have a problem. In Australia, and on sunjammer, a wget of <a href="http://download.sugarlabs.org/activities/4315/words-21.xo" target="_blank">http://download.sugarlabs.org/activities/4315/words-21.xo</a> is being 302 redirected to <a href="http://mirror.aarnet.net.au" target="_blank">mirror.aarnet.net.au</a> but fails with 404. Now, I'm not sure if Gonzalo's link for words-21 is correct: <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/Sugarlabs/0.102" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/Sugarlabs/0.102</a> This is hindering olpc-os-builder. ;-) I don't yet know how to workaround it short of duplicating Gonzalo's activity list page. -- James Cameron <a href="http://quozl.linux.org.au/" target="_blank">http://quozl.linux.org.au/</a> </blockquote></div>
