This appears to be a problem with edge.launchpad.net. When attempting to submit the blob to https://edge.launchpad.net/+storeblob, apport gets a 502 response:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/apport/apport-gtk", line 221, in <module> app.run_argv() File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/apport/ui.py", line 181, in run_argv self.run_report_bug() File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/apport/ui.py", line 175, in run_report_bug self.file_report() File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/apport/ui.py", line 434, in file_report upthread.exc_raise() File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/apport/REThread.py", line 37, in run self._retval = self.__target(*self.__args, **self.__kwargs) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/apport/ui.py", line 67, in upload_launchpad_blob { 'FORM_SUBMIT': '1', 'field.blob': mime }) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/urllib2.py", line 380, in open response = meth(req, response) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/urllib2.py", line 491, in http_response 'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/urllib2.py", line 418, in error return self._call_chain(*args) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/urllib2.py", line 353, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/urllib2.py", line 499, in http_error_default raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp) urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 502: Bad Gateway Indeed, simply trying to load https://edge.launchpad.net/ in a browser gives the same result. Three things to be done: 1. Fix edge.launchpad.net 2. Get +storeblob rolled out to production if it isn't already, so that apport doesn't need to use edge.launchpad.net 3. Fix apport to report errors properly in upload_launchpad_blob (I had to remove a try/except to see this error) ** Also affects: launchpad (upstream) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Summary changed: - Apport not working due to network problem + Apport not working due to edge.launchpad.net failure ** Changed in: launchpad (upstream) Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed -- Apport not working due to edge.launchpad.net failure https://launchpad.net/bugs/84992 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
