So I found yesterday that the MultiViews option was active in the template used by cfgmgmt for those vhosts, and was the root cause of that behaviour. I confirm that such .raw image wasn't even present on those cloud.centos.org, but httpd served the .raw.tar.gz instead. Fix for this was pushed earlier today so you'll now have a 404 if you try to download that .raw file again. That brings though another question : why trying specifically to download a .raw file that isn't listed on that page ? -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | http://www.centos.org gpg key: 56BEC54E | twitter: @arrfab -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
