Hi,

If it is an https issue like this (one of the possible mirrors that can be 
returned)
https://apache.melbourneitmirror.net/flex/4.16.1/binaries/apache-flex-sdk-installer-config.xml
 
<https://apache.melbourneitmirror.net/flex/4.16.1/binaries/apache-flex-sdk-installer-config.xml>

I can’t see how we could easily solve it as it likely at the mirrors end. (Open 
that URL in a browser and see what you get.)

It may be that SSL in not supported on all Apache mirrors, perhaps on purpose?? 
Has anyone asked infra? I have no idea if this is the case or not and a quick 
search of teh documentation doesn’t mention https and mirrors.

I know that the KEY files and hashes need to checked via SSL and not placed on 
mirrors, but all mirror examples use http not https and there is this JIRA 
which suggests that https requests need to redirect and return 301s. [1] (which 
is moved permanently)

Thanks,
Justin
