[jira] [Commented] (IVY-1503) The fix for IVY-1194, to uncompress depending on the Content-Encoding breaks .tgz downloads

["Nicolas Lalevée (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1503?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14250813#comment-14250813 ] 

Nicolas Lalevée commented on IVY-1503:
--------------------------------------

Considering the headers you show, I think Ivy is doing the right thing. The headers basically say that a tar file is being send, and to optimize the bandwidth on the wire, gzip will be used. So the stream should be uncompressed.

I have search other people with similar issues, I have found a discussion on the httpd-dev mailing list:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-dev/199912.mbox/%3CPine.GSO.3.95a.991203095437.21983w-100000@suncms33.cern.ch%3E

I don't understand how wget understand that it shouldn't uncompress.

> Since we updated from ivy 2.1 to 2.3 *.tgz files downloaded with a artifact url
> 		<artifact name="hello" conf="common" type="pkg" ext="tgz" url="http://server.xxx/ivy/hello.tgz"/>
> get uncompressed during the download, breaking the later handling of those files.
> I don't know if this is a setup issue of our http server, but I don't experience the ivy behavior in other tools. When I use wget for example (or a browser, or...) the file gets downloaded just fine.
> Would it be at least possibly not to perform this automatic uncompression with an attribute in the artifact? Or a global configuration property.
> Output for a wget --save-headers (which saves the file correctly, does not uncompress)
> HTTP/1.1 200 OK
