packagist: TransportException 404 Not Found for packagist.org urls

This should not happen anymore now, it was a race condition between mirrors but I put a fallback in place now so they should go fetch the missing file if a race happens. Please do tell if you see it again.

@Seldaek I am also experiencing this a lot today. e.g. https://drone.owncloud.com/owncloud/core/18699 and pick any of the red jobs. https://drone.owncloud.com/owncloud/core/18699/130

and the errors have various different provider-yyyy*.json file names.

I am guessing that there is some problem with packagist server(s) somewhere?

Is there a status page or twitter thread or… where real-time status of the packagist servers is posted? That would be handy - to know if there is already a known problem being worked.

And how are we supposed to report this sort of error? which is probably a real-time packagist mirror/server sysadmin problem not a packagist software bug.

This has been resolved, we had an issue with the metadata mirroring over the weekend sorry about that. I would recommend removing the mirror configs you set as workarounds.

@dilshandesh that seems unrelated, please don’t pile up random stuff in this old issue, rather open a new one if you have an issue you can reliably reproduce.

This mirror works for me: https://packagist.phpcomposer.com

use: composer config -g repo.packagist composer https://packagist.phpcomposer.com

and/or add to your repository section in composer.json

                { "type": "composer", "url": "https://packagist.phpcomposer.com"},

Hi, im having the same problem with

composer create-project --repository-url=https://repo.magento.com/ magento/project-community-edition .

@Seldaek

1. is there somewhere that reports known packagist status? similar to https://www.githubstatus.com/ and https://www.traviscistatus.com/ etc.
2. is there somewhere that we can report when there seems to be an issue?

Because otherwise we are left trying to report via the bug-reporting mechanism on GitHub, and that is not the ideal way to report system-network problems.

@Seldaek Seems resolved, thanks!

Same here [Composer\Downloader\TransportException]
