Description John Von Essen 2001-07-25 02:20:00 UTC
The Makefile has a bunch of bad ftp address for the apache source. About a week ago, it would work on the 8th or 9th address in the list. Tonight none of them worked.

Fix: 

Update Makefile
How-To-Repeat: cd /usr/ports/www/apache13
make

The current status I find of the 15 mirrors listed make chances of getting 
the source if the first one at apache.org is down very unlikely.

One has a changed path, one points to the wrong server and the right one 
doesn't have 1.3.20, there are 6 that no longer mirror, one refuses 
connections, two time out, one doesn't have 1.3.20, which leave only 2 
mirror sites that have the tarball.  Grim isn't it.

Further it seems that the official mirror list 
(http://www.apache.org/mirrors/) lists some mirrors that have been dead for 
over a year.


David,

I'm verifying mirrors for all the following apache* ports:

apache13+ipv6
apache13-fp
apache13-modssl
apache13-ssl
apache13
apache2
apache13-contrib

Also trying to provide some consistency to them, which is made more fun by 
the SSL and FP variants.  Figure those would be sorted with the extra 
required distfiles first and that should reduce the number of mirrors hit 
before all distfiles are fetched.

Will preserve apache-contrib's %SUBDIR% usage when sorting and will add a 
few mirrors most likely, as one is out of date leaving only 3.

Could use an opinion on whether to use still out-of-date mirrors when 
1.3.20 was released was on May 15th.  Considering there are number of 
others to replace them with.
