problem downloading binaries from sourceforge

Hi All,

I tried going through https://openoffice.apache.org/downloads.html to 
download Linux x86-64 rpm binaries and follow the binary link to SF and 
the download download doesn't start and it redirects me to the files 
page and 4.1.13 isn't listed but there is another download button that 
doesn't work and then I'm back to the files page.

When I try to login I get a 404 that it says the website is temporarily 
in static offline mode.
But it shows a tweet that says its back to full capacity.

Anybody else get this?

Thanks,
Carl

I had already grabbed them from
https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/openoffice/4.1.13/binaries/

I wonder if we should change that alternate link to use the cdn?

Thanks,
Carl

Going through the route you describe I get the same, but since I have my
browser set to block almost everything on SurceForge that doesn't surprise.

I suggest the "Alternative download link #2" in the right hand column of
https://www.openoffice.org/download/index.html

Regards
Dave

Yes, all is back to normal, even the mirror options.

I can see the listed item for 4.1.13 and it has already over 81,000 
downloads.

It worries me that 4.1.13 does not show up on

https://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/

Should I report that?

Sourceforge must be changing the pages (again) because when you press the "Problems Downloading?" button, you no longer have the option to choose the mirror you want, it will simply switch to another mirror...

Pedro
