Any ideas what could be causing this ?

Hrm.  Either the apache site had issues, although it's odd you'd get a 500
which is "Internal Server Error" for a request for a static text file.
Or perhaps you either are trying to go through a proxy, or need to go
through a proxy?

If you request that file in a browser, does it work?

It's working fine for me right now fwiw.

Prolexic has nothing to do with apache.org.

Put in a delay for each file you test and fetch.

Otherwise you trigger prolexic's DoS detector.

I had to do that with my GetRules.sh script.
