My impressions from this thread is that this is still an unresolved
server issue? If the new server was changed to be exactly like the old
server, then PocketSword should be able to download, correct? This
workaround is good and all, but it's still a workaround, which is to
say, a temporary fix.
p.s. - I didn't realize how much of this thread was about PocketSword.
Previously, based on the title and the snatches of the conversation that
crossed my eyes, my impression was that this conversation was mostly
about a server matter. I would have replied sooner regarding PocketSword
if I had known.

I can add that for most older modules and some newer modules, the workaround
also succeeds for installing the module search index automatically from our
server.
That’s because the indices are stored in a particular server directory whose
path does not depend on the module download path or access protocol.
However, there are still several CrossWire modules for which the search index
was never created when the module was either first released or last updated.
One example: Middle English : Wycliffe
These omissions should and could be rectified by the “Modules Team”.
Let’s make it a better experience for PocketSword users.

Workaround for PocketSword module downloads from CrossWire.
Add FTP Source
This is one of the hidden options under the folder icon at top right.
Set up as the greyed out example.
Just tested successfully.
Praise the Lord !

Thanks for the feedback. When I get time, I'll try to expand the test
application to not simply perform a directory listing, but to actually try to
install a module via the CURLHTTPTransport driver.

Troy,
I tried downloading 2 English bibles from CrossWire into PocketSword, but still
the same, it took about 1 second to download and install, but nothing was
installed.

I have checked the configuration of both servers and made the IndexOptions
align exactly. I didn't notice much of a change, but could someone please
check if they can install modules from CrossWire now?
I have also added a new test program which is not included in the build of
standard test programs, but is available if anyone would like to look more
deeply into the issue
http://crosswire.org/svn/sword/trunk/tests/httptest.cpp
For the record, I created the test program after aligning the IndexOptions on
the server didn't appear to me to make much difference (e.g., the date format
was still the same), with the intent to debug the problem, but both URLs in the
test program parsed directory listings just fine... So... Either, something in
the IndexOptions did indeed make a minor adjustment to the output which fixed
the problem, or else the problem is something entirely different.
Jaak,
Yeah, of course we could create a generated index.html file for each folder and
this would assure we could read the contents, but a goal is to keep deployment
of these repositories easy for module publishers and http directory listings is
only used by PocketSword. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks Troy,
Who’d have thought that a date format would be so critical ?
It’s often the little things that catch us.
Nic Carter has replied off list.
He’s the pumpkin holder for PS.
Aside: Does any other SWORD front-end use the same parsing code?
When the new Apache server was configured, did we have a choice about the date
format?
Can a server setting be changed?
Would that in effect mend the PS module installer?
Without requiring any immediate work on PS.
(And without breaking anything else....)
Finally, PS needs serious work to successfully recompile against iOS 12.1.x
It’s a long time since the last PS release!

So, here's my guess. Nic uses HTTP instead of FTP to read our distro and does
some magic to parse Apache httpd directory listings. Here's our old server and
here's our new (as DM sent previously). There are some slight differences
(notice the date format, at lease).
old: https://guest.crosswire.org/ftpmirror/pub/sword/raw
new: https://ftp.crosswire.org/ftpmirror/pub/sword/raw
The parsing code is here:
http://crosswire.org/svn/sword/trunk/src/mgr/curlhttpt.cpp
Who owns PocketSword these days?

How do we find root cause?

From yesterday or before, I cannot install any module from our repos into
PocketSword.
Is there an outage or is it a certificate expired?
I can still install modules from [eBible.org](http://ebible.org/) and Xiphos,
so it’s not due to anything in the latest iOS 12.1.4 release.
