[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

Cloning of comm-central fails with 'abort: premature EOF reading chunk (got X bytes, expected Y).

Operating System: Windows XP SP3 using MozillaBuild 1.5

According to http://mercurial.selenic.com/bts/issue1797 , this could be caused by my slow internet connection (1 Mbit/s).

Seems to wfm from within the colo.  Not sure what we can do about external factors.  Where are you located?  How good/bad is your network connection?

Location: Germany
Connection: 1 Mbit/s via wireless LAN (I don't see problems like disconnects while cloning).

I had gozer verify that this worked for him as well.. I bumped up the timeouts on the server.  Can you please try this clone again?

Tried three times, it is still not working.

I am not sure how to reproduce/debug this problem.  I just tried to clone this from a machine in Amsterdam and it worked just fine.  I was using mercurial 1.5.4.  Can you try this from some other network (thank the one giving you the problem) and re-open if you think its still an issue?

Tried it on another network and cloned without problems. Still not able to clone on the problematic network.
Using MozilaBuild 1.5 with Mercurial 1.5.4

-> Reopening.

What ip address are you coming from?  Copying one of our network guys on the bug.

Tried a few minutes ago from 86.56.88.23

We recently switched colos in Amsterdam and I tried this clone from the new ISP, and it completed just fine.  At this point there is not much else we can do about this from our side.  I suspect problems with your ISP.
