[02:17] <mwhudson> wgrant: running debmirror against a ppa seems to result in the odd 500 failure
[02:17] <mwhudson> wgrant: this seems a bit surprising to me but is it known?
[02:34] <wgrant> mwhudson: A 500 is just about impossible. Which files?
[02:34] <mwhudson> wgrant:  Download of pool/main/g/golang-bindata/golang-bindata-dev_3.0.3-1_amd64.deb failed: 500 Server closed connection without sending any data back
[02:35] <mwhudson> from, er, mwhudson/trusty-go-rebuilds-dh-golang-2/ubuntu
[02:35] <mwhudson> wgrant: could be a proxy, i wonder if debmirror uses the apt proxy configuration?
[02:36] <mwhudson> i could test the theory by running it again with a different target folder and seeing if it's quicker i guess...
[02:37] <wgrant> mwhudson: I don't see any reasonable way that could 500, since it's just apache serving from a filesystem with no rewrites or anything.
[02:37] <mwhudson> wgrant: this is why i mentioned it!
[02:38] <wgrant> mwhudson: Indeed. Let me know if you don't track it down to a proxy.
[02:42] <mwhudson> wgrant: doesn't seem to be going via my squid-deb-proxy in any case
[02:42] <mwhudson> happened again though
[02:42] <mwhudson> [ 28%] Getting: pool/main/g/go-md2man/go-md2man_1.0.2.orig.tar.gz... failed 500 Server closed connection without sending any data back
[02:42] <wgrant> Oh, so a debmirror 500, not a real 500.
[02:42] <mwhudson> ah
[02:42] <wgrant> debmirror has a bad habit of converting random errors into HTTP error codes.
[02:42] <wgrant> That's not totally impossible.
[02:43] <mwhudson> ah so this is probably "just" a request that timed out or something?
[02:43] <wgrant> Right, I expect so.
[02:43] <wgrant> A tcpdump might be able to confirm.
[02:43] <mwhudson> i have rather too much going on right now to want to do anything with tcpdump :-p
[02:43] <mwhudson> but maybe another day
[08:27] <cjwatson> wgrant: 500> That's LWP rather than specifically debmirror.
[08:29] <cjwatson> (We could possibly turn off the use_eval option and organise some alternative handling, but that option is undocumented.)
[08:30] <wgrant> cjwatson: I encompass all Perl silliness in debmirror.
[08:30] <cjwatson> Heh.
