[RESOLVED] 2 packages not visible to clients...?

[Jonattend]

Good morning,

First, the client and server configuration information can be found in my signature

I'm having a strange problem: I imported the libreoffice-stable package and the vlc package into my repository.

From the console, both packages are clearly visible.

Both packages are also visible on the server via SSH.

When I try to install vlc on a machine (tested on two Win7x64 machines), the console returns a "Missing dependencies vlc" message (same message for libre office).

From the client machine, via a 127.0.0.1:8086, in "Packet List", the two packages are not visible.

From the client machine, via a wapt-get install, same error message (Critical: unavailable packages).

I tried clearing the console's local cache: same result.

I tried a debug scan of the packages using "wapt-scanpackages -f -ldebug /var/www/wapt", it does see the 2 packages though....

Code: Select all

root@wapt:/home/wapt#[b] wapt-scanpackages -f -ldebug /var/www/wapt[/b]
2019-02-21 11:18:28,328 INFO   Processing new /var/www/wapt/prefixe-vlc_3.0.6-3_x86_all.wapt
..........

An "ls -lha" command on the server:

Code: Select all

.....
-rw-r--r-- 1 wapt www-data  35M Jan 28 10:52 prefixe-thunderbird_60.4.0-36_x64_fr.wapt
-rw-r--r-- 1 wapt www-data  39M Feb 21 11:08 prefixe-vlc_3.0.6-3_x86_all.wapt
-rw-r--r-- 1 wapt www-data  22M Mar 27  2018 prefixe-waptupgrade_1.5.1.21-5_all.wapt
.....

I'm struggling to understand why these two packages (LibreOffice/VLC) remain invisible to customers... the other packages (more than 30) don't cause any problems...
I've already tried deleting them from the server and re-importing them, but no luck... :/

Any leads?

Thank you.

Good morning,

You have imported the VLC x86 package which is only visible to machines with a 32-bit system.

To avoid this message, import the 64-bit version of the VLC package

The thunderbird package, on the other hand, is an x64-only package, therefore invisible to 32-bit machines.

If you want a manually created package to be visible to all architectures, specify the following in the control file:

Code: Select all

architecture : all

In the documentation: https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/wapt-create- ... chitecture

EDIT: Starting with WAPT 1.7, display filtering in the private repository and during import is available

Sincerely,

Alexander

You have imported the VLC x86 package, which is only visible to machines with a 32-bit system.

First of all, thank you for the reply. I just tested it with VLC:
- via the WAPT Console -> private repository
- Import from the internet (store.wapt.fr)
- The "Latest version only" box was checked
- I'm importing the "tis-vlc 3.0.6-2" package, which is labeled "x64" for Arch
- Once imported, I do "package editing": in the control file it says "architecture: x86".

- I follow exactly the same procedure with the VLC version "tis-vlc 3.0.5-3"
- Once imported, I do "package editing": in the control file it says "architecture: x64".
On the client machine, via 127.0.0.1, I can see my VLC package in version 3.0.5-3.

Problem solved then... but I wonder if there might be an issue with version 3.0.6-2 in your repository?

Thanks anyway, I learned something today about the "control" file. I'll be more careful next time
