Re: Failed: PAUSE indexer report SHAY/libapreq2-2.15.tar.gz
Hi Steve, Sorry we hadn’t got back to you before now. The problem here was the "provides" section in META.yml. Because it’s missing the file: line for each module, it’s now considered an invalid metadata file. So CPAN::Meta refuses to load it. When that happens, MetaCPAN construct a new metadata file for the distribution, which ends up pulling all of the packages found in the tarball. You don’t have permissions on all of them (because PAUSE thinks they’re not candidates for indexing). Andreas and I have been emailing back and forth trying to agree the right / best way to resolve this. The cleanest way would be for you to do a new release that has a valid META.yml. If that’s not possible at the moment, Andreas and I will resolve it another way for now, and you can fix META.yml for your next release. Cheers, Neil

Let me > know when I overlooked anything. Thanks for this. I'm happy to see that this release now appears on MetaCPAN, but numerous modules within it are listed as "UNAUTHORIZED" when I look at https://metacpan.org/release/SHAY/libapreq2-2.15. The previous release at https://metacpan.org/release/ISAAC/libapreq2-2.13 does not have this problem, so there is still a gremlin hiding somewhere in the system. If you think it would be easier to just do another release now, with the "file" attributes added, and all the indexing done in the usual way now that I have the correct permissions to start with then let me know; I don't want to be any trouble. (The problem is that I can't avoid being trouble to someone because these releases have to go through voting at d...@httpd.apache.org and apreq-...@httpd.apache.org before being uploaded. I was trying to avoid that just for the sake of an indexing problem on CPAN, but I'm happy to do it if this is causing you more headaches than voting for a new release would be for the folks at Apache!)

My current theory is that it's to do > with a weakness in this META.yml: the "provides" entries in the META.yml > all have no "file" attribute: That was my guess too, when looking at it last night. But then I noticed that the .13 release is similar, so I decided to sleep on it. I just looked at the Changes file for CPAN::Meta, and there have been some changes / bug fixes related to handling of provides. So maybe the version being used by PAUSE when the .13 release was fine with that? I just checked the spec (CPAN::Meta::Spec), which says that the "file" key is required (https://metacpan.org/pod/CPAN::Meta::Spec#file1). Can you do a .16 release please Steve, with a file: key for each module listed in the provides: section. Neil

Too many years in between and too much code changes on PAUSE to have a clear view what might be the cause. My current theory is that it's to do with a weakness in this META.yml: the "provides" entries in the META.yml all have no "file" attribute: : provides: : Apache2::Request: : version: 2.15 : Apache2::Cookie: : version: 2.15 Compare this with: : provides: : Acme::Godot: : file: lib/Acme/Godot.pm : version: '0.001010' I think it's worth trying to provide the "file" with the provides attribute next time you come around with a release. Now you ask why did it work with 2.13. I don't know, offhand, it's just an unproven theory anyway. What I now did was a very dirty manual operation in the DB directly: : update packages set version=2.15, : dist='S/SH/SHAY/libapreq2-2.15.tar.gz', : file='missing file attrib in META.yaml/provides; ed. by andk' : where dist like '%libapreq2%' ; So now 2.15 is indexed and no code on PAUSE was changed for that. Let me know when I overlooked anything. Greetings, -- andreas

It ended with "Nothing in this distro has been indexed, because according to META.yml this package does not provide any modules." but comparing the META.yml with that in libapreq2-2.13 (which presumably is indexed since it appears on MetaCPAN?) I see nothing but the expected differences. In particular, they both list the same set of "provided modules", with just the versions bumped from 2.13 to 2.15. > > Will try again later,,, Thanks again :-)

Re: Failed: PAUSE indexer report SHAY/libapreq2-2.15.tar.gz
Hi Steve, Ah, I forgot to mention — you’ll need to force PAUSE to re-index the tarball you uploaded. When you log in to PAUSE, in the life sidebar you’ll see "Force Reindexing", under "Utils" (3rd section). When you click on that you’ll get a list of the files in your upload directory. Click the checkbox next to libapreq2-2.15.tar.gz and then click on "Reindex". You’ll get an email within the hour with the results of the reindexing. That will make your release appear in the CPAN Index. MetaCPAN will need to reindex it as well — I’ll give them a nudge once your reindexing is done. Cheers, Neil

Re: Failed: PAUSE indexer report SHAY/libapreq2-2.15.tar.gz
Hi, Regarding the failed indexer job below, is it possible to get permission to upload this new libapreq2 release? (Or more specifically to get it indexed, since I see it has been uploaded here: https://cpan.metacpan.org/authors/id/S/SH/SHAY/). I have perms to upload mod_perl2 releases, but haven't done a libapreq2 before. It appears I don't have the necessary perms for this. (The PAUSE View Permissions page for libapreq2 says that the special APML name has comaint, which I thought might confer perms to me, but it obviously doesn't work like that!) I offered to do this on behalf of Joe Orton, who put the release on Apache servers (see http://httpd.apache.org/apreq/download.cgi) but he's never done CPAN uploads before. He confirmed he's happy for me to do it on his behalf here: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/rc729a2b2a857963f6c03a99217f8946f2981fe5ffc5a7cbcd0d0ab18%40%3Cdev.httpd.apache.org%3E Thanks, Steve On Tue, 23 Feb 2021 at 13:28, PAUSE wrote: > > The following report has been written by the PAUSE namespace indexer. > Please contact modules@perl.org if there are any open questions. > > User: SHAY (Steve Hay) > Distribution file: libapreq2-2.15.tar.gz > Number of files: 312 > *.pm files: 24 > README: libapreq2-2.15/README > META-File: libapreq2-2.15/META.yml > META-Parser: Parse::CPAN::Meta 1.4414 > META-driven index: yes > Timestamp of file: Tue Feb 23 13:26:47 2021 UTC > Time of this run: Tue Feb 23 13:28:39 2021 UTC > > This distribution name will only be indexed when uploaded by users with > permission for the package libapreq2.
