Regular problem with "apt-get install default-jre" on both oneiric_cloud and precise_cloud

[Paul Sokolovsky]

It's observed for more than a week, and spotted for both precise_cloud slaves (subjectively happens more frequently), and precise_cloud. E.g.:

I logged in into such broken instance, tried "apt-get install default-jre", it failed as in log. Tried "apt-get update", it finished with

So, it appears that apt-get update may not pick up some repos on the first run. Suggested workaround is to run it twice (with small delay inbetween),

[Paul Sokolovsky (pfalcon)]

This of course leaves question open why it at all goes to http://archive.ubuntu.com , instead of EC2 mirror (and I saw both of them used!)

[Paul Sokolovsky (pfalcon)]

Added:

sleep 2
apt-get update

for both oneiric_cloud and precise_cloud, let's see how it goes.

[Paul Sokolovsky (pfalcon)]

I didn't see big issues since that.

[Paul Sokolovsky (pfalcon)]

Well, not quite fixed. Today a new wave of broken slaves, this time it more reminds of the issues happened on android-build:

How to fix that issue?

[Paul Sokolovsky (pfalcon)]

Unassigning from myself, someone from maintenance subteam, or maybe Deepti should look into this.

I have not seen the E: Unable to locate package default-jre error after May15th.
Paul/Fathi,
Have you seen this lately ? Please point me the slave log which has this error if any.

I haven't seen the issue recently (since we refactored init script to use fifo)

[Deepti B. Kalakeri (deeptik)]

I have not seen this error for almost a month now, hence closing this bug.
We can re open the bug, if the problem re occurs.

Thanks!!!
Deepti.
