So, here it is: gemini://medusae.space

I don't know what software server you use but it seems its response

header is:

<STATUS><TAB><META>

when the specification

<gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/docs/specification.gmi> says it

must be:

<STATUS><SPACE><META>

Many clients are lax and accept the tab but may be not all?

You're right! It should be fixed now, thanks a lot.

It is, thanks. (Managing a crawler is a very good way to test the

health of the geminispace.)

You're not alone, these capsules have the same problem:

consensus.circumlunar.space

gem.bestalbumsintheuniverse.com

typed-hole.org

vger.cloud

This is the sort of case where you regret the Server: header of HTTP,

which may be would show the software they use, allowing a global bug

report.

Ah thanks St?phane, this should be fixed for typed-hole.org. I'm using

my own server which isn't used by anybody else AFAIK.

Indeed.

If I were less lazy, I would notify all the capsulemasters of the

technical problems detected by the Lupa crawler (there are many; as

Melisandre said, the geminispace is large and full of errors).

But the last time I did that, his email server rejected my message

claiming that my IP address is blacklisted.

Oh, you're right. I guess that's because we've used relative links

with a dot-slash format. Is that something that should'nt be used for

gemini links?

We'll change it tomorrow.

Thank you for the report.

Well, no, I'm stupid... It's just that vulpes seems to not be able to

accept urls with queries (?). Any capsule that use this kind of URL or

is waiting for client input is broken on vulpes.

I'm sorry, I can't do anything to fix this.
