Unable to unregister packages that were registered with wrong git-endpoint

ruvenpelka commented 8 years ago

Hi,

I just registered 14 packages and made the mistake of using the normal GitHub URL like this: https://github.com/revolt-framework/base.figure instead of the correct git-endpoint like this: git://github.com/revolt-framework/base.figure.git in the register dialog.

I wanted to correct my error by unregistering the packages and then registering them again with the correct git-endpoint, but I am getting the following error message:

bower EUNKNOWN Unknown error: 503 - <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> <style type="text/css"> html, body, iframe { margin: 0; padding: 0; height: 100%; } iframe { display: block; width: 100%; border: none; } </style> <title>Application Error</title> </head> <body> <iframe src="//s3.amazonaws.com/heroku_pages/error.html"> <p>Application Error</p> </iframe> </body> </html>

Is it possible that an admin can delete the following packages manually or give me instructions on how to unregister them correctly?

revolt.settings.defaults revolt.tools.functions revolt.generic.normalize revolt.generic.reset revolt.generic.box-sizing revolt.generic.vertical-spacing revolt.base.root revolt.base.figure revolt.base.hr revolt.base.lists revolt.base.responsive-images revolt.objects.list-bare revolt.objects.list-inline revolt.objects.media

Thanks!

Nevermind about deleting the packages. I just looked into http://bower.herokuapp.com/packages and it looks like the URLs got converted into the correct git-entpoints.

However, it's weird that I am unable to unregister any of the packages.

Hmm, looks like you're onto something here. I'll close in favor of https://github.com/bower/bower/issues/2171 (same problem - unregistering)

bower / registry
