GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 52911
ftp/download 1.2.x
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Package: gtk+ Version: 1.2.0 i don't know if this is the correct place to log this, but i couldn't find anyplace more apropriate on the website. I haven't been able to download gtk+ 1.2.10 from the website (or from the gnome mirrors) for a couple days (every since gnome 1.4 was announced). Getting the url: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v1.2/gtk+-1.2.10.tar.gz gives me: File Not Found The requested URL ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v1.2/gtk+-1.2.10.tar.gz was not found on this server. K ------- Bug moved to this database by unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org 2001-04-05 16:36 ------- The original reporter (ckl017@email.mot.com) of this bug does not have an account here. Reassigning to the exporter, unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org. Reassigning to the default owner of the component, gtk-bugs@gtk.org.
No real idea what is going on here. The file is there, netscape and ncftpget can handle it fine.
For me wget fails but wget --passive works
The need for wget --passive is just a symptom of being behind a firewall; outside the firewall, this isn't necessary. I suspect though, that the original reporters problem is similar - the client being used isn't using passive FTP and there is a firewall in the way. I don't think there is really any action we can take here, so I'm closing the bug.
