Subject: darcs failed: Failed to download URL HTTP error (404?)
Hello,

recently, I wanted to install gerris on my mac 10.5.8 following
instructions from http://gfs.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Mac_OSX_Installation

However, when trying
darcs get http://patch-tag.com/r/popinet/gerris-stable
or
darcs get http://patch-tag.com/r/popinet/gfsview-stable

following error appears

darcs get http://patch-tag.com/r/popinet/gerris-stable
Invalid repository:  http://patch-tag.com/r/popinet/gerris-stable

darcs failed:  Failed to download URL http://patch-tag.com/r/popinet/gerris-stable/_darcs/inventory
: HTTP error (404?)

can you help me with that?

regards, Martina.

Hi there, first repo is working for me (didn't try second). It has
been downloading patches for over a minute which seems kind of slow,
but no 404 error.

Maybe transient bug that went away?

If still not working, what happens if you just try viewing url in browser?

FWIW, another test repo checked out quickly, so I am not sure if
slowness is a patch-tag performance issue or something odd about that
repo.

Have you verified that you can fetch any other repositories from that computer?

I tend to route my browser traffic through a SOCKS proxy,  and I
recently discovered that Google Chrome has started setting the
ALL_PROXY environment variable when I direct it to go through a proxy.
  (Which is pretty obnoxious, to tell the truth.)   Darcs uses curl,
and curl tries to use the proxy specified in that environment
variable,  but apparently curl doesn't support SOCKS proxies.

I doubt this describes your problem,  for starters I got a different
error message.  But it is an example of what can go wrong.

Best,
Leon

Hello,

thanks for your replies.

the problem still persists with the same error message.

In my browser (safari) I can view the page normaly.

yes, i verified the other repositories and i can fetch only
darcs get http://gts.sf.net/darcs/gts-mainline

what doesn't work is:
darcs get http://patch-tag.com/r/popinet/gerris-stable
darcs get http://patch-tag.com/r/popinet/gfsview-stable

something wrong for me with patch-tag.com ?

regards, martina.

Strange.

What OS are you using?

What is output of

darcs --version

(mine is 2.3.0)

ping patch-tag.com

darcs get http://64.22.109.73/r/popinet/gerris-stable

(use ip instead of domain name)
