What's the exact URL of .jigdo and .template file which was tried ?

For now i tested the offer for amd64 debian-12.4.0 (demonstrating the wget workaround for a long fixed bug in older jigdo-lite about https):

$ wget https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-dvd/debian-12.4.0-amd64-DVD-17.jigdo
...
$ wget https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-dvd/debian-12.4.0-amd64-DVD-17.template
...
$ jigdo-lite
...
jigdo [...]: debian-12.4.0-amd64-DVD-17.jigdo
...
Files to scan:
...
Debian mirror [http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/]:
...
Finished!
The fact that you got this far is a strong indication that `debian-12.4.0-amd64-DVD-17.iso'
was generated correctly. I will perform an additional, final check,
which you can interrupt safely with Ctrl-C if you do not want to wait.

OK: Checksums match, image is good!

Download via the cheapest Telekom DSL lasted 21 minutes.

At https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-dvd/SHA256SUMS
i read the line:

025abfe804857c88ee52545540e6bfa241306ade21a73d69cbd92173a0355820 debian-12.4.0-amd64-DVD-17.iso

The downloaded ISO matches:

$ sha256sum debian-12.4.0-amd64-DVD-17.iso
025abfe804857c88ee52545540e6bfa241306ade21a73d69cbd92173a0355820

So it seems possible to get DVD 17 via jigdo and a german Debian mirror.

Ask Hannes to try my above example or try it yourself.
(If nothing helps i would be willing to create the ISOs and to upload
them at some given URL. For sending two DVDs by mail i'd demand an Aldi Panettone as reward ... or a 5-pack BD-R media ...)


Have a nice day :)

Hi,

I've contacted some CD vendors that were providing old Debian releases
to update to the newest release. One of them replied, that
he was unable to create DVD17 with the jigdo file both i386 and
amd64. He asked for an alternative download of the ISO but IIRC we do
not provide torrents for these.Maybe you can check if there's a
problem with DVD17.
Attached is the german email of the person who reported this problem:

Hallo Thomas,

das Problem ist der der jigdo Download der DVD17. Egal ob i386 oder
amd64. Beide iso lassen sich nicht erstellen. Wo finde ich diese als Alternativ Download?

Gruß
Hannes

I would guess he means the
debian-12.4.0-amd64-DVD-17.jigdo in the directory

https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-dvd/

Right. I've tested DVD17 here and it rebuilds just fine. Can you ask
this user to share more details of exactly what they're seeing please?
