[jira] [Created] (TUSCANY-3860) Failing downloads from Tuscany SCA
Eclipse update site
Failing downloads from Tuscany SCA Eclipse update site
------------------------------------------------------
Key: TUSCANY-3860
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TUSCANY-3860
Project: Tuscany
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Java SCA Tools
Affects Versions: Java-SCA-1.6.2
Reporter: Simon Nash
The file [1] on the Tuscany SCA Eclipse update site is very large (72MB) and downloads of this file by Eclipse frequently fail. Using a dynamically generated site.xml file that uses a mirror site for the feature and plugin downloads would improve this. Apache Directory Studio has implemented a solution; see [2] for an example of the dynamically generated site.xml file, and [3] for the sources and description.

------------------------------------------
You could use the mirrors for the download/installation:

-------------------------------------
The solution is to download from a mirror, but how does the user find a suitable mirror? The solution implemented by Apache Directory Server returns a mirror automatically when Eclipse accesses the site.xml file. If a Tuscany user needs to enter a mirror URL manually into Eclipse, how would they get the list of mirrors and how would they know which mirror to choose?

------------------------------------------
Cool, if the update site finds the mirror automatically, even better. +1 for going with this approach then.
