Confirmed... http://buildbot.libretro.com/assets/cores/

Any folder entries with spaces will not list anything.

Weird...
It must be a problem with the crawling script because my own testing rom server has the full no-intro set spaces and all and I can use it just fine

Could this be some update to the buildbot breaking it? I've been git biseting this and even pretty far back I'm hitting the same issue.

[parkerlreed]

Any update on this? Still an issue on 1.7.5.

It's a weird one, I have my own "rom server" and mine works just fine with
spaces

This is still not fixed on linux86_64

Any idea what causes this?

[RobLoach]

I believe it's something with the web server. lighthttpd does something weird with the requests, which breaks RA. I'll remove the spaces from the directories for now.

@RobLoach Thanks! That does indeed work for now.

[fr500]

Yes it's the web server not the RA side
