Hi Martin/All,

I was just about to send out a mail about this; looks like you've beaten me to it!

Yes, there was a typo with the original mail that was sent out wrt README downloads, which the document now addresses.
Also patch 119254-77 has now been released, so AFAICT it has been made public in place of 119254-76.

I've retested this morning (using my test MOS SSO) and have successfully downloaded patches for 119318-01 112951-15 113713-28 119254-77 and their associated READMEs.

If anyone is still having issues downloading any of the 4 patches listed above, or their READMEs please let me know.

Here's the syntax that works for me:
wget --http-user="xxxxxxxx" --http-passwd="xxxxxxxx" --no-check-certificate "https://getupdates.oracle.com/all_unsigned/119254-77.zip" -O /tmp/119254-77.zip
wget --http-user="xxxxxxxx" --http-passwd="xxxxxxxx" --no-check-certificate "https://getupdates.oracle.com/readme/120068-02" -O /tmp/README.120068-02

Best,
-Don

Has anybody been successful in downloading a README file?

Obviously there was an error in the InfoDoc. A note has been added:

  http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-79-1199543.1-1
  18 November 2010:
  * Corrected error in documentation for downloading readmes.  The base
    URL should read https://getupdates.oracle.com/readme/<patch_id>.

Using /readme/ instead of /readmes/ I could now download the READMEs of all 4 sample patches successfully. This works without specifying --http-user and --http-passwd, too.

Martin.
