Comment 1 Orion Poplawski 2008-02-19 16:06:34 UTC 
With 11.4.0.36, it no longer crashes but it cannot retrieve the file.

Last VT3 line:

ERROR: failed to retrieve http://sw.cora.nwra.com/ks/rawhide-laptop.cfg

I see an access from the machine in the server:

/var/log/httpd/access_log:192.168.0.113 - - [19/Feb/2008:09:01:32 -0700] "GET
/ks/rawhide-laptop.cfg HTTP/1.0" 200 10293 "-" "anaconda/11.4.0.36"

and I can ping the machine.
Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2008-02-27 19:03:21 UTC 
Still a problem with 11.4.0.40.
Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2008-03-11 14:11:36 UTC 
This works for me in 11.4.0.49.
Comment 4 Orion Poplawski 2008-03-11 15:58:53 UTC 
But not for me.

INFO: file location: http://sw.cora.nwra.com/ks/rawhide-laptop.cfg
INFO: transferring http:///ks/rawhide-laptop.cfg to a fd
ERROR: failed to retrieve http://sw.cora.nwra.com///ks/rawhide-laptop.cfg

Access log on server looks good:

192.168.0.113 - - [11/Mar/2008:09:55:16 -0600] "GET /ks/rawhide-laptop.cfg
HTTP/1.0" 200 11767 "-" "anaconda/11.4.0.49"
Comment 5 Orion Poplawski 2008-03-17 18:08:26 UTC 
Still present for me on 11.4.0.53.
