Bug in GET requests for ovftool 2.1.0?

Hi all

I would like to introduce the possibility of a bug in 2.1.0 ovftool.  Keep things simple, we have a 'file server' of ovfs/VMDK and our orders at ovftool began to break after improvement to 2.1.0 (from 2.0.1).

We dug the command which displays debugging information and discovered (as our server logs showed), ovftool allows to GET requests to the URL of the source of the FVO (a reason any).  The second of them seems is badly formatted in 2.1.0.  For comparison, I have also included similar outout of 2.0.1.

Our (neutered) deploy string: / usr/bin/ovftool - machineOutput - name = "vm_test1" lax - datastore = 'store1' - net: 'NO ' =' dev' http://fileserver/file/VM.ovf VI://root:password@esxihost

Get requests (2.1.0):

2011 11-14 T 16: 04:55.413 - 05:00 [verbose 7FB4D5C7B700 "Default"] CURL: = > send the header GET /file/vm.ovf HTTP/1.1

-> User-Agent: VMware-client/4.0.0 (ovfTool; libcurl)

...

2011 11-14 T 16: 04:55.420 - 05:00 [verbose 7FB4D5BF7700 "Default"] CURL: = > send GET/file header/ /vm.ovf HTTP/1.1

-> User-Agent: VMware-client/4.0.0 (ovfTool; libcurl)

File Apache Server manages the slash extra ok, but our other option of service using Phusion Passenger does not work and returns a 404 error, which causes ovftool to return

ERROR
+ < errors >
+ < error >
+ < type > ovftool.ovf.descriptor.open < / Type >
+ < LocalizedMsg >
+ Could not open the descriptor of the FVO
+ < / LocalizedMsg >
+ < / error >
+ < / errors >

RESULT
+ ERROR

Good get queries (2.0.1):

> GET /file/vm.ovf HTTP/1.1

User-Agent: VMware-client/4.0.0 (ovfTool; libcurl)

...

> GET /file/vm.ovf HTTP/1.1

User-Agent: VMware-client/4.0.0 (ovfTool; libcurl)

Someone else can confirm or has had similar problems?

I just took a glance at the HTTP and URI RFC on it.

RFC 2376 (URI) don't call that ' / / ' cannot occur at the beginning of a path, then Apache process this equivalent to ' / ' in the middle of a path is incorrect.

I know that doesn't help you directly, but could help people write the code.

However, modrails is written to run under Apache or Nginx (or autonomous, that installs just his own nginx), and Nginx not mod_rewrite style what URL redirects.  You might try to write a rewriting rule to correct these applications...

  • REQUEST for ADMINISTRATOR PERMISSIONS: AsLoader.exe; Cpulveluphooklaunch.exe; fourengine.exe - what are these?

    I recently bought a Windows 7 operating system and operated on the day the day in user mode.

    I get requests for leave (as admin) for the following three programs:

    AsLoader.exe; Cpulveluphooklaunch.exe; fourengine.exe.

    I don't know what they are and whether it is safe or not to accept some or all three of them. So I was refusing permission, but every time that I reboot the 3 same keep reappearing!

    Is there anywhere I can go (MS or elsewhere) who will give me the answer I'm looking for in terms simple it is okay or not? - and where I can go in the future on other programs to ask for permission.

    If I say 'no', how can I stop them reappear? Is it possible to remove them so that they disappear for good!

  • Cannot get email, get request to install tbird, is my e-mail for years program.

    Request for username and password, never asked before, get page that talks about the update to thunderbird 38. tried to get information from tbird, but had not received any email from the tbird. can get by e-mail by going to the site web cableone.

    You have a username (often your-account name) and a password for your account on Cableone. This is what asked.

    When you set up your Cableone - account Tbird or any other e-mail client, you must quote your account name and your password. At least once.
    In Tbird, there is a checkbox "remember...". "If you checked it you would normally never be asked again unless you change the password.

  • I get request to update my Flash Player from Adobe. What is c? Where to find info on how to use it?

    I don't really know how to use this thing, I'm seriously "physically challenged and a slow-learner." and my computer repair man keeps changing computers about me.  (In this I am not sure that it helps me.  Once I have to get used to some programs, there are 'new '.   His "real confusion.  For example, I got a real easy to use-address book that had all my personal and business addresses and telephone #s in there.  The computer got a 'blue screen' several times, so he came and changed my "Dell XPS" computer professional with a 'new' (a ' Dell 7 Ultimate' it was 'better'.    If I could afford it, I buy a new one and start over) so I rarely know 'where' I am, or what to do when I'm 'where I am.  With a full-time job and a serious hobby of computer repair, it doesn't have the time to help me with "operational" issues This put an unfair burden on anyone trying to help me, but I HAD TO GET HELP - SOMEWHERE, so if I'm not a gene with what will be long-term issues (because I don't know much about the computer operations), can I impose to ask what might be the basic questions?  Of course, they cannot be "basic", but what I know.     I read "... for Dummies" books, but they did not answer my questions.  I'll try to be brief, but it's not my nature.          So, let's go...

    Sometimes I get request to "update my Adobe Flash Player."  I have looked under Start programs and everything I find is "Adobe Flash Player";  I do not use reader because I do not know how, or its purpose.  But I feel like I'm missing out on thing, why would he says in the 1st place?  (I don't want to watch videos, and somewhere, I think I remember it may have something to do with it.  If so, I peut have a NEED for him.  And if so, where can I find information on how to use it.  Once again, if so, I also NEED the Flash Player?

    Original title: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

    Flash Player is used by some web sites to improve how their web page or pages are displayed. If you go on a site that uses Adobe Flash and Flash Player is not installed on your computer, you will see a request to install Flash Player. When Flash Player is installed, then you can never know its duration as its transparent you when loading a web page.

    In your case and on my computer I installed Flash Player, and for this purpose, I see the same update request that you see. It is best to install the update to the latest version of bugs or security risks that may currently exist in the old version install on your PC.

  • Requests for repeated e-mail sign-in

    One time, I started to receive applications of password to connect to multiple e-mail accounts at the opening of my MBA.  The accounts range from gmail, aol and outlook.  I never forget a password request for my iCloud email account.

    Any way to prevent this?  It is becoming a bit boring.

    Hi blueeos,

    I understand that you get some guests for accounts on your computer. I know it's important to have your MacBook Air to work effectively so that you can continue to receive e-mails, so I'm happy to provide advice to help with this.

    One of the most common causes for this would be a change to the password of these accounts. If you have made changes to your accounts, open System Preferences > Internet accounts or Mail > Preferences > accounts and ensure you enter your changed password.

    If these requests are from your keychain, you can also check the information presented here:

  • Firefox has detected that the server redirects the request for this address in a way that will never end.

    This week (01/10/12) I registered on youtube and now I can't log back in here or in my gmail account. I tried every fix-it/single remedy offered the FF forum but nothing works.

    Any other work, all the sites that I frequent load fine, is youtube doing something on purpose for FF users? I can get the page youtube videos and see, but I can't log on, every time I click the sign in button, I get:

    "The page is not redirecting properly".

    Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
    

    This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies. »

    I hate to be a conspiracy theorist, I can connect to youtube without problem on IE, but I hate this browser. I use windows 7 and 15 FF. Can someone find it?

    Looks like it's a firefox issue, because that never happened on IE, Safari or Opera on me.
    You think not that a simple patch can solve this problem. I have to delete individual cookies every day.

  • Store changed from the United Kingdom to China using my old zip code. Now cannot get back. Payment type is NONE, but get requests by charging to add card details.

    Store changed from the United Kingdom to China the other day using my old zip code. Now can not return to the United Kingdom. Payment type is NONE, but get requests in billing add card details that they are not everything. Postal code is changed back to UK. Phone is iOS 4 s 9.2.1. Any ideas how to get back?

    Hi Sandyback,

    Thank you for your participation in the communities of Support from Apple.

    I see that you have changed the country associated with your Apple (iTunes Store account) ID, and now ask you to provide a method of payment. This happens when changing the country on an existing Apple ID, according to why I can't select None when I change my Apple ID payment information?

    If you have changed your country or region

    When you change the country or the region of an Apple ID, you must provide a payment method and update your billing options. If you want to delete your payment method after you change the country or region, you can change your payment information to none.

    You will not be able to see or select the no payment option for one of these reasons. If you don't want to use a credit card, you can use another form of payment, for example, a gift card.

    Sincerely.

  • Typical time a request for interruption takes between RT LV and LV FPGA.

    Currently, I don't have the equipment to test it, and I was looking for some statistics calendar all the time it takes for a request for interruption to process between LV RT and FPGA LV (LV RT generate the interrupt request, waiting LV RT on ack, LV FPGA get query pause and LV FPGA ack, LV RT continue).  I know that the interrupt request has a priority higher loop timed on LV RT, and a concern for this issue, let me say that the FPGA LV does not what whatsoever between the receipt of the interrupt request and receipt.
