Maemo Extras Assistant: Down?
 

Is Maemo Extras Assistant down?
I've been trying for the best part of 12 hours to upload my .changes file, and it keeps automatically giving me the "File upload error."

I tried some of my old files that I had uploaded before, but I still keep getting the same error.

Can someone try and upload their .changes to it, and see if it's not just me?

Cheers.

Having the same issue. My app is broke and I can't upload the fix.

Not comforting to hear it's been down for 12 hours.. damn.

Re: Maemo Extras Assistant: Down?
 

Well it's at least comforting to know that I'm not the only one, and that the world is not conspiring against me.

Do you know who we should be complaining to? I don't think that this thread alone will solve much...:(

Re: Maemo Extras Assistant: Down?
 

Not sure are we talking about same thing, but I can upload debian-source-packages to the fremantle-builder and it will build them and put packages to the extras-devel repository.

It is not sending confirmation (or failure) emails as usual. I recognised this about 12 hours ago and it is still happening.

I mean, this is working:

It has been down for a couple days. It has been reported multiple places but no fix yet, although I do see a few packages trickling through now.

Would the URL for diablo just be to replace fremantle with diablo?

Nevermind.. I found the path's in the Wiki.

I think that information about troubles with repos should be put into news, instead of useless rambling about N9.

^ Agree - I wish people wouldn't jump ship so early from the slightest rumor!

@AapoRantalainen - Can you send me your .changes file? I need to know if it's something I'm doing wrong...

Re: Maemo Extras Assistant: Down?
 

Does the project have to be registered with garage to use the scp dropbox? It gives me public key error despite having my key on my garage.maemo.org account.

Re: Maemo Extras Assistant: Down?
 

You're not doing anything wrong, Aapo isn't talking about the Maemo's Extras Assistant (the web-based package loader).

If you setup dput, or rcp/scp - you can manually transfer the necessary files to the repository from the command line. Once they are in there, the auto-builder will grab them and make them for you.

The web page is probably still down, but the manual copies work. Of the three options listed here, it appears #2 and #3 work but #1 does not (the web-based builder).

Re: Maemo Extras Assistant: Down?
 

I don't believe so, I don't think pyRadio is registered there.. I had to change my key on my garage account today and it took about 20 minutes before it would let me into the system so if you recently changed it I'd say try again.

Also, make sure you've got the public key inside the garage and not your private key.

Re: Maemo Extras Assistant: Down?
 

Hmm... I keep getting the 'ssh rejected key' error using methods #2 and #3 described earlier.

Is it okay to use an empty passphrase when generating the keys?

Also, just to clarify:
In garage, my key should be the contents of ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub,
beginning with:
'ssh-rsa <one line key> tetris11@machine' ?

Actually scratch that -

Extras Assistant is working now.
IT'S BACK UP!

Re: Maemo Extras Assistant: Down?
 

Thanks for reporting this! In general, if something on the maemo.org infra is down (or just misbehaving), it would be best to file a bug about it. And for fast reaction, make sure to ping our helpdesk as well.

thanks - will do in future
