We actually already named the download url download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.1 , but I failed to tweak software.opensuse.org/developer to say Leap because we have so many places that assume the distribution is named "openSUSE $VERSION", so help there is welcome

download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.1 returns "Object not found". I assume that is because we are currently at download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.1-Milestone1 and download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.1 will be found when it is complete. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.1/ (note the trailing /) is being properly redirected. So a repository pointing to it will work.

That's interesting. Thank you. Now help me understand why download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.1-Milestone1 (note the lack of a trailing /) redirects to download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.1-Milestone1/ (with /) but download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.1 (without) doesn't. If download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.1 (without) requires a trailing / why can't the server supply it. That would be a nice service to provide those who make a small mistake, wouldn't it? Am i missing something about Linux directories that I didn't learn from using UNIX (AIX)?

42.1-Milesteon1 is an actual existing directory on the server - so the web server can 'enter' the directory and your browser correctly reflects this with the added /

42.1 OTOH is only a server based redirect (and does not exist as a directory on the server). And the rule HAS to be to match 42.1$ ($ being 'end of line') as otherwise there would be strange redirects happening for everything with 42.1 in it.

In essence: the structure on the server is setup for zypper / yast as main consumers... and for those usecases it works. For a human, there are some special cases to consider (like adding the / ).

Not really - just, as noted above: only one is a directory on the server, the other is a http server configured redirect (see for example apache's mod_rewrite for an idea)

Cheers, Dominique

Thank you, that answers my question completely, but it leads, of course, to the final question, Since I don't have access to the server nor the required knowledge on how to add the additional redirect, will someone else take the initiative to add the redirect to the server?

You can't do a rewrite without the trailin slash without breaking the system badly.

In short, mod_rewrite does a pattern match / replace. The normal way is:

download.opensuse.org/distribtion/leap/42.1$ ($ indicating end of line) rewritten to download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.1-Milestone1

if you now leave the $ away, you end up with download.opensuse.org/distribtion/leap/42.1-Milestone1 being matched by the pattern, and being rewritten as

download.opensuse.org/distribtion/leap/42.1-Milestone1-Milestone1, and so on and so forth..

I guess you understand this won't work very well :) (it CAN be worked arund with more complexity, but that generally leads to a new can of worms, causing much more debug work and more random errors).

(there are more such cases in the setup, like e.g: http://download.opensuse.org/update/tumbleweed is 404, whereas http://download.opensuse.org/update/tumbleweed/ redirects properly to the Tumbleweed update channel.

The added complexity sort of does not weigh up the minimal gain received.

Dominique

Thank you, Dominique. I've followed what you have explained. I guess any further proposal from me will have to wait until I try to release my own distro of an operating system. Naming really ought to be easier than this, but I guess it isn't.

If you don't mind Victor, I think that would be a good idea.

I did it, and have made a new PR...
