[jira] Created: (DIR-228) Very difficult to find KEYS, hashes and
sigs for downloads
Very difficult to find KEYS, hashes and sigs for downloads
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: DIR-228
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIR-228
Project: Directory
Issue Type: Bug
Components: sitedocs
Reporter: Sebb
Assignee: Alex Karasulu
It's really difficult trying to find the digests and sig files in order to check downloads.
For an example of an easy-to-use download site, see any of the Commons downloads, for example:
http://commons.apache.org/downloads/download_net.cgi
The page has links to the KEYS file, and the md5 hash and pgp signatures.

[jira] Resolved: (DIR-228) Very difficult to find KEYS, hashes and
sigs for downloads
Posted by "Pierre-Arnaud Marcelot (JIRA)" <di...@incubator.apache.org>.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIR-228?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Pierre-Arnaud Marcelot resolved DIR-228.
----------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
The sites have been updated (Emmanuel will refresh them from Confluence in a few minutes)
.
Each 3 sites (ApacheDS 1.0, ApacheDS 1.5 and Studio) now features:
- a detailed page for each distribution (Mac OS X, Linux, WIndows or Binary, Deb, RPM installers, etc.)
- a "Download old version" page.
All these pages includes information on how to find the KEYS, ASC and MD5, and how to verify the download.

[jira] Commented: (DIR-228) Very difficult to find KEYS, hashes and

Pierre-Arnaud Marcelot commented on DIR-228:
--------------------------------------------
Here's what I propose for all our downloads: http://directory.apache.org/studio/download/download-macosx.cgi
I'll prepare a page like this for every single distribution we ship (Studio and Server), with detailled information on how to install the distribution (whether it's on Windows, Linux (various version) or Mac OS X).
