AW: Missing "clouds.jpg" in kde-applicationdata/marble

[Torsten Rahn]

Hi Anders,
 
Thanks for your report.
 
I guess this is a bug in our Marble client application configuration (and 
it has probably been there for almost a decade):
 
The requests for clouds.jpg are most likely done by our Marble client 
application that is distributed to several thousands of users.
 
The client is actually NOT supposed to download the clouds.jpg at all - 
it's rather supposed to download the tiles from the server (e.g 
maps/earth/clouds/0/000000/000000_000000.jpg
 
The clouds.jpg is a raw file that is downloaded to our server every few 
hours and is cut into tiles - and only those tiles are supposed to be 
loaded by the marble client application. We could fix this issue in our 
marble client application but it would take months until the fix would 
reach our users via updates.
Not sure what to do in this case (apart from fixing our dgml files which 
would only get propagated slowly to our users via updates).
 
Best Regards,
Torsten

Or we could do a permanent redirect (301) to wherever the clouds.jpg file 
is hosted now?

  Hi KDE marble!
   
  At mirrors.dotsrc.org <http://mirrors.dotsrc.org> we host a mirror of
  "kde-aplicationdata". I just checked our error log, and it is filled with
  entries similar to:

  2016/10/06 13:35:11 [error] 13816#13816: *50015180 open()
  "/srv/mirrors/kde-applicationdata/marble/maps/earth/clouds/clouds.jpg"
  failed (2: No such file or directory), client: x.x.x.x, server: 
  mirrors.dotsrc.org <http://mirrors.dotsrc.org> , request: "GET
  /kde-applicationdata/marble/maps/earth/clouds/clouds.jpg HTTP/1.1", host:
  "mirrors.dotsrc.org <http://mirrors.dotsrc.org> "

  "/srv/mirrors/kde-applicationdata/marble/maps/earth/clouds/clouds.jpg"
  failed (2: No such file or directory), client: x.x.x.x, server:

  /kde-applicationdata/marble/maps/earth/clouds/clouds.jpg HTTP/1.1", host:
  "mirrors.dotsrc.org <http://mirrors.dotsrc.org> "

  We get a couple of those every second. Our mirror of
  "kde-applicationdata" is up to date, and updated every two hours. One way
  for you to fix this, is to add the file "clouds.jpg" back into the
  "kde-applicationdata/marble/maps/earth/clouds" directory.
