David,

This is a bit odd. PCA downloading readme's direct from Sun doesn't
work, but using the pca proxy is fine. I've cleared all the README*
files from the cache directory, so it's definitely downloading them.

Not necessarily. pca does all it can to avoid talking to SunSolve, so it will extract the README from the zip file, if it exists. You can see that in your debug output:

  Mon Aug 17 13:09:43 2009: Requested file: README.119254-67
  Mon Aug 17 13:09:43 2009: Downloading README for 119254-67
 > Mon Aug 17 13:09:43 2009: Trying /pca/119254-67.zip
  Mon Aug 17 13:09:43 2009: Done

You can use the "--force" option on the pca client, which will force pca (and the proxy) to always download files from SunSolve, ignoring copies e.g. in the proxy's cache. Or remove the cached copy of 119254-67.zip on the proxy.

PCA going direct to Sun gives a 0 byte file.

Thanks. I'm pretty sure now that this affects everybody.


Yes, we are also affected.
