but if it fails it fails silently

That's 1) - you sometimes get an empty file

If you can reproduce this with "curl -v", I'd be interested to see the output.

It's pretty random when it happens. I made a copy of the /usr/bin/tumbleweed and changed the latest function to use curl -v

Here's an example where latest was blank:

Ah, here we go. You get a HTTP redirect ("location: ..."), but curl doesn't follow redirects automatically.

That might be a side effect of our switch from mirrorbrain to mirrorcache for http some weeks ago. (AFAIK mirrorbrain always directly served this file.) (For https, we use mirrorbrain since about a year.)

Adding -L to the curl call should help (it enables following the "location:" header).

Please also open a bugreport for tumbleweed-cli so that everybody gets the -L added.

That's 2) - download.o.o doesn't have latest Tumbleweed

I have submitted the bug report on tumbleweed-cli.

Yeah, it takes a little while after a build is published before the ISO shows up and tumbleweed status lists it as the latest, BUT, in this case a second build was published and neither build is showing up as available. That's why I reported the issue because it is definitely not normal for that to have occurred.

Bernhard did manually call the publish script in the meantime (see ticket) - that's not a fix, but at least a workaround. [from #opensuse-project]

Dominique has fixed the publishing issue.
