@khdelphine Is this a duplicate of https://github.com/edgi-govdata-archiving/archivers.space/issues/42 ?

@kmcculloch, no, I don't think it is a duplicate of #42.

42 is a bug report (the string “harvest_url” appearing instead of the actual url in certain situations).

However I think #20 can be closed, because it was opened at a time when there was no ways for harvesters to see the URL of the zip file they had just uploaded. The Archivers app was just not showing it. So the harvesters had no way to check that the upload was successful and could only "hope for the best".
