https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=641328 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=641328#c2 --- Comment #2 from Michael Andres <ma@novell.com> 2010-09-24 11:05:44 CEST --- Please attach the zypper logfile /var/log/zypper.log (or an older /var/log/zypper.log-YYYYMMDD.bz2) that shows the reported behavior. You can execute 'grep main.cc /var/log/zypper.log' (or 'zgrep main.cc /var/log/zypper.log-YYYYMMDD.bz2') to see execution dates and commands the log contains. The workaround works, but it's intended that just the user name stays in the baseurl. The corresponding password should be stored in /etc/zypp/credentials.cat (or ~/.zypp/credentials.cat). The logfile showing 2. # zypper ar -C ftp://USER:PASSWORD@SERVER/extra-update ftp.example.com 3. # zypper ref should help to find out why it does not work. Maybe you can also check the credentials.cat and tell whether it contained the correct password. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Is this reproducible in openSUSE 11.3?

openSuse 11.3 zypper version: 1.4.5 And yes, bug exists there as well. (And there is no /etc/zypp/credentials.cat too) (In reply to comment #2)

Please attach the zypper logfile /var/log/zypper.log

see attachment

The workaround works, but it's intended that just the user name stays in the baseurl. The corresponding password should be stored in /etc/zypp/credentials.cat

Yeah of course a saved encrypted password is much better, but there is no credentials.cat file at all. Whether in /etc/zypp nor in ~/.zypp $ ls /etc/zypp/ repos.d services.d systemCheck vendors.d zypp.conf zypper.conf The vendors.d was created by me the other day.

That results in not saving the password if supplied, and not asking for one if not supplied. The bug is still in 11.3. 11.4 does good (the Curl backend) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

We won't fix this for HTTP, since the new MultiCurl backend is now the default in 114 and it does not have this bug. Done in libzypp>8.5.0, and libzypp-7.9.5. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
