[OSGeo-Discuss] repo.osgeo.org contains empty files

[Jody Garnett]

 I have gone ahead and created a ticket there:
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/2978

I did not see you report the ticket yet, and it is capturing feedback on
multiple channels.

I have found the problem with geonetwork-cache being setup to cache files
stored in a GitHub repository by geonetwork 2.x series.
GitHub must of turned off access in this manner yesterday, resulting in a
lot of time-outs and zero sized files being saved.

The geonetwork-cache has been removed from release configuration; and I
hope normal service has been restored? Please CONFIRM 🙂

Notes:

   - There is a risk that other repositories have saved these zero sized
   files and will need to clear their cache of OSGeo, and lazily rebuild it
   again.
   - Normal maven builds do not have any way to select what jar to retrieve
   from different repositories. Indeed they attempt to contact each repository
   in turn, checking for every jar.
   So it is expect that repo.osgeo.org releases would field requests for
   all manner of content as we have seen. This is one case where gradle offers
   better control ...
   - I will reach out to the core-geonetwork project and determine how
   their build can be restored also.
