  1. This is a list of problems that I have seen:
  2. - One an upload failed with the following error:
  3. Jul 8 12:13:53 Upload to master.debian.org failed, last exit status 1
  4. Jul 8 12:13:53 Error messages from scp:
  5. bind: Permission denied
  6. lost connection
  7. Never seen such an error from ssh/scp before... But since it didn't
  8. happen again, I suspect something with master and/or the net.
  9. - There are some protocol problems between certain ssh version (on
  10. client/server side). The effect is that scp either hangs itself
  11. (times out after $remote_timeout), or leaves ssh processes hanging
  12. around. I've noticed that with ssh 1.2.19 on the server. I have a
  13. prototype for a workaround, but haven't included it in
  14. debianqueued, because master has been updated to 1.2.20 now and the
  15. problem disappeared.
  16. - The "ftp" method has some limitiations:
  17. 1) Files in the target dir can't be deleted.
  18. 2) Uploaded files can't be verified as good as with the other methods.
  19. 3) $chmod_on_target often doesn't work.
  20. 4) The check for a writable incoming directory leaves temporary files
  21. behind.
