Download areas

Item posted by James E. Blair <corvus> on Thu 15 Jan 2004 10:15:29 PM UTC.

Files that were in the download areas on Savannah before the
compromise can be downloaded from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/savannah/files.
We kindly ask project administrators to verify the integrity of those
files and use the following procedure to upload them to the new file
areas on Savannah.

Savannah has a new system to handle uploads of files to the download
area in a secure way.  Project administrators are the only ones
allowed to upload files at this time.

To begin, please add your GPG key by logging in to Savannah and
visiting one of the following URLs:

https://savannah.gnu.org/account/change.php?item=gpgkey

https://savannah.nongnu.org/account/change.php?item=gpgkey

Within 2 hours the system should have updated the files necessary for
uploads.

After that time, use the following procedure to upload files:

   For each upload destined for Savannah, two files need to be
   uploaded via ftp to the site.

         (1) File to distributed (eg. foo.tar.gz)

         (2) Detached GPG binary signature for (1) (using gpg -b)
            (eg. foo.tar.gz.sig)

   The files should be uploaded via anonymous ftp to savannah.gnu.org.
   and placed in the /incoming/savannah/<projectname> directory.  For
   example, to place foo.tar.gz in project bar's download area, upload
   foo.tar.gz and foo.tar.gz.sig to:

   ftp://savannah.gnu.org/incoming/savannah/bar

   Uploads are processed every five minutes.  Uploads that are in
   progress when the upload processing script is running are handled
   properly, so do not worry about the timing of your upload.

Currently there is no easy way to manipulate (move, rename, delete, or
work in subdirectories) with the new system.  If you are an
experienced PHP programmer and would like to help add this
functionality, please contact us.

If you have questions about this process, please contact us at
<savannah-hackers@gnu.org>. 

Thank you for your patience.

is it working ? (posted by Joachim Wolfgang Kaltz, Mon 19 Jan 2004 12:56:43 PM UTC)

Hi,
I tried it out described, waited for a couple after setting my GPG key. Then uploaded using FTP, my project is "ironmailer", so this went to ftp://savannah.nongnu.org/incoming/savannah/ironmailer
The files were uploaded successfully. This was a couple of hours ago.

Where should uploaded files now appear ? In the traditional download part of the project ? Nothing appears there (http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/ironmailer/).
Or, should it be at the ftp site (ftp://ftp.gnu.org/savannah/files/ironmailer/) - nothing new appears there, although I do see the files I uploaded last year, using the old mechanisms.

Thanks for any insight on this.
