Running gaia-try on v2.2r is totally broken: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=gaia&revision=dce50a884e3b39f1fb676cf72f4e6c62adeb6368

This is because the mozilla-download (and mozilla-get-url) there relies on the FTP protocol which was shutdown.

The master branch of mozilla-download is of no help since it downloads from TaskCluster while the B2G builds for b2g37_v2.2r branch are being produced by Buildbot. So no build available from this master either.

This technically means any uplift on Gaia for v2.2r is not able to get any test being run.

Josh, this is actively blocking 2.2r patches from landing. Can you please help move it along?

Hi LISSY,
I am not sure who is the owner of mozilla-download that can help here. Do you know?
Thanks!

If I'd knew I would have already pinged them.

This is blocking a sec-moderate security fix backport for 2.2 of bug 1181571, and I have another fix backport incoming. Should these be landed blindly?

I don't know what mozilla-download is, but I assume you mean mozdownload? If it does not work for you I assume you are using a version <1.17. I would encourage you to upgrade to v1.17 which is not using ftp.mozilla.org anymore but archive.mozilla.org, and it works perfectly:

$ mozdownload -t daily

So I digged in the logs and have seen that mozilla-download has nothing to do with mozdownload. This tool is based on node.js and is maintained in https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/mozilla-download.
Thanks catlee & Henrik, I have pinged Gareth about this one.

This will download from TaskCluster, but I have been told we have no B2G Desktop v2.2/v2.2r build there, it is still on Buildbot.
You can still use https://archive.mozilla.org/ for downloading builds via a FTP connection.

Is there anything different about archive.mozilla.org? I'm pointing the mozilla-download ftp client at the new host and I'm not getting any responses. Also

gareth@albee:~/Documents/mozilla-get-url$ ftp -dv archive.mozilla.org

This is not the FTP protocol anymore, HTTPS. Please see my comment 9.

^^ I am so confused
Sorry, I may have to stop commenting late in the night. FTP definitely doesn't work, right.
correct - we have discontinued support for the ftp protocol

Hi gaye,
Could you try modify mozilla-download to use HTTPS connect to archive.mozilla.org as mentioned by Shing?
Thanks!

I think we'd be better off just using the python http client. Would someone get that set up for us?

I could give advises and mentor how to integrate mozdownload if wanted, but I don't have the time to do that work. Sorry. Feel free to also ask on IRC in the #automation channel.

I talked with Gareth and we can get to this one next week. Josh, if you are able to find someone else who can work on it sooner, we can provide guidance on it. 

Alex, is this specific to the 2.2R branch? What's the situation on 2.2?

Anything except gaia-try on master is impacted and broken. Yes. All gaia < master.
Flags: needinfo?(lissyx+mozillians)
Since there is no move, I have hacked something to at least get gaia-try working: https://github.com/lissyx/gaia/commit/0c0db03186ba442dc8569a14839e6c22d7ae2205
:gerard-majax hack is fine for me on v2.2 branch

Right but thiw hack will break local development. We might be able to easily refine it, but it will still be a workaround.
If you still agree, I'll go down this road ... :)

Ok, I may try something similar to what we do for the |b2g_sdk| target. This should work for local development and also for gaia-try. We might even easily uplift this.

Well, problem solved: there are only linux64_gecko builds in https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/b2g/tinderbox-builds/ for the mozilla-b2g branches we are interested in ...
