      Description

      Problem description: 

      When failing to resolve a PyPi package from a Virtual repository, Artifactory caches an empty file under the remote-cache repository

      What is the impact on the customer?

      Invalid cache repository causes issues with artifact resolution.

      What is the expected behavior? 

      An empty package file should not appear in the remote-cache repository.

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Install the latest version of Artifactory

      2. Create a default “Quick SetUp” of virtual PyPi repo with Local and remote repo inside

      3. Attempt to install a non-existing package:

      python3 -m pip install packagename -i https://JFROG_URL/artifactory/api/pypi/demo-pypi/soap

      4. Check the cache repository:  

      curl https://JFROG_URL/artifactory/api/storage/demo-pypi-remote-cache/soap/packagename
{
  "repo" : "demo-pypi-remote-cache",
  "path" : "/soap/packagename",
  "created" : "2022-05-29T11:05:26.296Z",
  "createdBy" : "admin",

  "remoteUrl" : "https://files.pythonhosted.org/soap/packagename",
  "mimeType" : "application/octet-stream",
  "size" : "0",
  "checksums" : {

  },
  "originalChecksums" : {

  },
  "uri" : "https://JFROG_URL/artifactory/api/storage/demo-pypi-remote-cache/soap/packagename"
}

      5.  Artifactory fails to install PyPi soap package:

      python3 -m pip install soap -i https://JFROG_URL/artifactory/api/pypi/demo-pypi/soap
