Bug Description

$ bzr branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~launchpad-pqm/launchpad/db-devel /mnt/test/launchpad/workspace/db-devel
bzr: ERROR: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~launchpad-pqm/launchpad/db-devel/.bzr/repository/packs/09fb66d3dfb9df78e2bb1ca7b6c7aac9.pack is redirected to https://launchpad.net

This was due to PQM repacking the db-devel tree while Jenkins was attempting to check it out over HTTP.

It would be useful to get a -Dhttp log from bzr doing this.

Does it really send a plain redirect?

Requesting a nonexistent file from under a .bzr directory does not produce a redirect, even with a Content-Range header.

I wonder if this is actually perhaps due to haproxy, squid, or something else badly handling a glitched server.

I'm going to reopen this because it has recurred in https://hudson.wedontsleep.org/job/db-devel/408/console

It seems to me the next step is still to find out more about what redirect message is being sent.

Forgive the priority change but this completely blows up juju deployment. While it's a bug in juju that it branches off LP at all, it's a serious pain to have to wait ages for a deployment to get as far as it does and then be scuppered by this :(

It looks like this is connected to logrotate killing the rewrite helper process.
