Hi All,
We have a collection of private eggs served from a simple folder served
up by Apache.
The following works fine to get these eggs via buildout:
[buildout]
find-links = http://username:password@server/eggs-index/
However, the following does not find the eggs:
bin/easy_install
--find-links=http://username:password@server/eggs-index/ eggname
However, if I mount up the folder served by apache and do:
bin/easy_install --find-links=/mnt/path/to/eggs-index/ eggname
...it works fine.
bin/easy_install
--find-links=http://username:password@server/eggs-index/eggname-version.tar.gz
...bombs out complaining that authorization is required.
So, how come the behaviour of all of these is different?
cheers,
Chris
