Description tomwheeler 2009-06-01 16:43:12 UTC
I attempted to download the ZIP file containing the platform sources from the following URL, which yielded an HTTP 404
"not found" error:

   http://download.netbeans.org/netbeans/6.7/rc/zip/netbeans-6.7rc1-200905312038-platform-src.zip

Steps to reproduce:

1.  Go to 6.7 RC download page (http://download.netbeans.org/netbeans/6.7/rc/)

2.  Click the "ZIP file format" towards the bottom of the page

3.  Click the "netbeans-6.7rc1-200905282243-platform-src.zip" link on the following page

4.  See the "not found" error.

Workaround in the meantime is to download the sources for the entire IDE ("netbeans-6.7rc1-200905282243-src.zip").  This
is unpleasant because although these contain everything in the platform source ZIP file, then contain a couple of
hundred more megabytes of data.  This wastes both NetBeans' bandwidth and the developers, plus also the developers disk
space.

Something with dealing community/Sun supported languages from the "zip" page, I`ll check what`s wrong.

BTW, it is avalable at
http://download.netbeans.org/netbeans/6.7/rc/zip/netbeans-6.7rc1-200905282243-platform-src.zip

Fixed for 6.7 RC2.

Jan, Robert, could you please fix it for 6.7 RC1 as well?
2 files needs to be modified at line 166 (the diff is available in the link above):

Hello,
I have just updated both files as Dmitri advised.

Download now works for me.

Thanks, Jano!
Comment 5 tomwheeler 2009-06-02 16:12:01 UTC
I had to restart my browser (even clearing the cache was not enough, but IIRC our proxy server caches too), but I was
able to download the platform sources ZIP both through your direct URL and by following the steps I listed.

Thanks, guys!
