Sven,

for me the problem is only on linux

Yes, exactly. The problem doesn't exist on macOS. I tested on Ubuntu 17.04 (32-bit).

Hi Norbert,

I was able to reproduce the problem and then identify the culprit, although what I don't yet understand is how this is related to the changes in Zinc.

Anyway, the problem is that the file stream isn't properly flushed in ZnUtils class>>streamFrom:to:size:. Adding outputStream flush as the last statement fixes your problem. Apparently, StandardFileStream / MultiByteFileStream perform a simple close() on the file which, according to the man page on close(), does not guarantee that the contents have all been written to file. In this case a flush is necessary because the entire file is immediately read again.

Here's a smaller test case for you to play with Sven:

ZnClient new
   url: 'https://github.com/zweidenker/Parasol/archive/master.zip';
   downloadTo: '/tmp/foobar.zip'.
bytes := '/tmp/foobar.zip' asFileReference binaryReadStreamDo: [ :s | s contents ].
Transcript open; show: bytes size; cr.
5 seconds asDelay wait.
Transcript show: ('/tmp/foobar.zip' asFileReference binaryReadStreamDo: [ :s | s contents ]) size.

The output in the Transcript should be:

315392
318420

Thanks for the effort, Max, but I am confused about your runnable snippet. For me (macOS, Pharo 7) is gives

318420
318420

as it should, reading the same file twice. Did I miss something or did you make a typo ?

As for #close, it is my understanding that Pharo did a #flush before doing a #close, but maybe that is no longer true with the new primitive streams, we'll have to check carefully.

Good catch. I'll think about your suggestion (there are already #flush messages sent, but indeed the last one would be missing).

Cheers,
Max

Hi Max,

I constructed a case that fails exactly like I experience it. Could you try? Just unpack the attachment on a linux, set PHARO_VM env to your executable and execute build.sh

I will. Might take a couple of days though.

No problem. I‘m happy if you find time.

No worries.

I did my best to reproduce the issue but didn't have any luck. I really need access to a Linux VM to debug this. So I'm praying that Apple fixes the access restrictions to kernel extensions in their next beta...

BTW, Metacello uses ZnClient, which uses ZnFileSystemUtils, so there is indeed a chance that something goes wrong during download of the zip archive and that something may be tied to a difference in the versions of Zinc (although I still think that's unlikely).

Yes there is potential but I don‘t see it. I take a fresh 6.1 image and load my project into. I‘m not sure but I think zinc 2.9.2 is loaded rather early in that process. So I wonder why it does not go wrong in the first phase. And also not if I load the test group within the first phase. It must be either the second Metacello invocation or the stopping, copying and starting of the image. I try to isolate this case more and provide a script that goes wrong on my machine. But it will take some time because I needed to stop trying to solve this as I wasted nearly two days on that already.

Let me know once you have something and I'll try to help out.

I checked the Parasol Archive and it does not appear to be in Zip64 format (Metacello uses ZipArchive which can't cope with Zip64 but ZipArchive can read the Parasol zip). So my next guess is that there's either a problem with Metacello or Pharo in the way that ZipArchive is used (e.g. endianness problem or non-binary stream data). It would therefore be helpful to find out what happens in ZipArchive>>readFrom:, i.e. what kind of stream is passed / opened, is it binary, does the file exist and is it still the correct file.

I couldn’t see anything obvious. The file in the debug message exists, it is a readable zip file. The way Metacello uses it it is a StandardFileStream. It switches it to binary in the code. But the only difference between a working and non-working build is the upgrade to zinc 2.9.2.

Norbert

I'd debug it myself but I can't run VirtualBox at the moment because I'm on the macOS beta and it won't start...

Hi Norbert,

This is a bit of a guess, but it's possible that the archive that is downloaded from github is in Zip64 format and that the libraries for extracting Zip64 are missing on your Linux. That would of course contradict the experience that the same operation appears to work in 6.1.

to be honest I don’t know what Zip64 format is. I thought the Zip classes are pure smalltalk for unpacking.

Try extracting the archive manually on your Linux machine with the same method that Metacello uses (I assume, Metacello uses the ZipPlugin, which will probably use the system libraries).

I have no ZipPlugin as library in any of my vms.

But there are zips downloaded and unpacked. I start the image the first time loading all the code of my project. Then it is saved, copied to a new name and reopened to load the tests and then it fails. I did try to load the tests in the first run and then it works.

I’m running out of ideas

thanks,

Norbert

With the help of Esteban I got one step further. If I do

MCWorkingCopy
managersForClass: ZnFileSystemUtils
do: [ :each | each ancestry initialize ]

before loading my project it updates Zinc-FileSystem as well. Sadly it still does not work for me because I get

Loading baseline of BaselineOfMobilityMap...
...RETRY->BaselineOfParasol
...RETRY->BaselineOfParasol[31mError: can't find EOCD position

and I don’t know why. zip file is downloaded from github and present but it fails and only on my jenkins on linux. On my Mac this works.

I try a few things but then I’m back on pharo6.1 for the time being :(

Really? I thought the same but then I didn’t believe it works like that.

Anyway this would be very easy to solve. We just need to ask Sven if he is fine with doing an empty .16 version for Zinc-FileSystem and does an in-place version reset of 2.9.2 or a new 2.9.3. I’m not fully convinced that will solve it but the cost won’t be very high.

Need to investigate more. There are two .15 versions but there is 1 year in between (if you didn’t notice TheIntegratior.15 is from 2017). Just want to have more context information because I can only see that this is strange but lacking insight.

I’m trying to figure out why it does not update Zinc-FileSystem. No matter what I do I cannot get Metacello to load the newer package. That would fix the issue because I’m loading 2.9.2 which should have Zinc-FileSystem-SVC.15 and not stay on the one included in the image.

I think this is important for everyone that has a product based on 6.1 and that want to migrate someday to pharo7. This way it is impossible to do it step by step.

If there is a package .15 in the image and a package .15 in the repo, I think Metacello will not update because it rely on the numbers to know when to update. If it find a .15 and currently have a .15 I think Metacello will think they are at the same version.
