Metacello broken again

Hi all,

I did not follow the recent Metacello discussions again, but just now in my fresh Trunk image, Metacello new failed again multiple times saying 'retry with alternate repository failed: ''MessageNotUnderstood: UndefinedObject>>contentStreamFromEncoding:'''. Is this a known problem? How can I solve this without waiting for any server to be online again?

After this command failed, you cannot even retry it, because #Metacello is no longer a registered class in the image. This is rather inconvenient ...

Best,

Christoph

Re: Metacello broken again

Hi Christoph,

the smalltalkhub servers recently had some reconfigurations that are potentially the culprit [1] (just heard back, they are already on it :)). I attached a .sar for bootstrapping based on this issue's [2] suggestion for a new bootstrapping process that should allow you to get a working metacello in the meantime.

Best,
Tom

Re: Metacello broken again

Hi all,

I would not reply to this thread if I did not perceive a similar issue just again.

Installer ensureRecentMetacello --> Could not resolve: BaselineOfMetacello [BaselineOfMetacello] in C:\path\to\package-cache github://Metacello/metacello:master/repository ERROR: 'GoferRepositoryError: UndefinedObject>>isAlphaNumeric'

Are there any server errors again? The SAR works, of course, but if I try to #installGitInfrastructure after loading the SAR and skip #ensureRecentMetacello, I receive another error: MessageNotUnderstood: Array>>setLoadsInMetacelloProject: from MetacelloCypressBaselineProjectSpec(MetacelloProjectSpec)>>loads:.

Best,

Christoph

Re: Metacello broken again

Hi all,

am I the only person to still face this issue? Not even Tom's Metacello SAR is allowing me to install any Metacello packages any longer, and I cannot install Squot for the same reason. This is very disruptive for me because I cannot set up a new image with any packages.

Is there any one who could fix the servers just another time? :-)

Best,

Christoph

Re: Metacello broken again

Alright, it works. You must not try to install the SAR after running
Metacello new once - even the attempt to install Metacello breaks the
things.

Christoph

See also the class comment of SARInstaller for an explanation of the SAR format.

The SARBuilder tool can be loaded from the SqueakMap installer.

Re: Metacello broken again

There is already a SARBuilder? I reinvented the wheel only yesterday ... ^^
