py26-mysql package exists but its rmd160 file does not

[hani.jann@…]

Hello, I enjoy my first bug report :)

I want to install py26-mysql on my mac but I get this error :

Error: Target org.macports.archivefetch returned: Failed to fetch signature for archive: The requested URL returned error: 404
Log for py26-mysql is at: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_python_py-mysql/py26-mysql/main.log
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

Could someone explain me how to resolve that.

See you soon.

You haven't shown us the entire error, so we don't know what archive it was trying to fetch. But we only have packages for Snow Leopard and Lion at this time, and only using the default variants, so if you're trying to install something different, then it would be completely understandable for the archive fetch to fail, and that should not necessarily lead to failure to install the port; in those cases, MacPorts should try to download the source and compile it on your system. Did that not happen? Please attach the entire main.log so we can see what happened.

I am currently running Snow Leopard.

I have joined the main.log file.

See you.

Ah, I see:

:msg:archivefetch --->  Attempting to fetch py26-mysql-1.2.3_0+mysql5.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2 from http://packages.macports.org/py26-mysql
:msg:archivefetch --->  Attempting to fetch py26-mysql-1.2.3_0+mysql5.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2.rmd160 from http://packages.macports.org/py26-mysql
:debug:archivefetch The requested URL returned error: 404

The archive itself fetched just fine, but its rmd160 hash file is not found. This is confirmed by looking in the ​py26-mysql directory on the packages server. We had a problem with our upload script some time ago that would sometimes lead to this situation. The problem with the script was resolved but apparently not all affected archives were removed from the packages server. Bill, could you maybe just delete all packages from the server that don't have a corresponding rmd160 file?

As for how to get around the problem now, it's simple: run "sudo port selfupdate" and try again. You're trying to fetch py26-mysql @1.2.3_0, but I updated the port to 1.2.3_1 over two months ago in r95500.

When I run "sudo port -d selfupdate", i get this:

Sounds like your network blocks rsync traffic. If you cannot resolve that problem with your network administrator, then you'll have to update your ports tree via Subversion or via the daily ports tarball.

Seems to be resolved.
