Not really sure if I did it correctly, though. The target of the redirect does not exist yet. I added "updates" to the URL as well, so the path is: /nb/updates/9.0/ (e.g. /nb/updates/9.0/updates.xml.gz -> http://netbeans-vm.apache.org/uc/9.0/updates.xml.gz) Jan On Wed, May 9, 2018 at 4:18 PM, Neil C Smith <neilcsm...@apache.org> wrote: > Hi, > > On Mon, 7 May 2018 at 16:03 Jan Lahoda <lah...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> A small tweak to the plan I'd like to propose: I think it would be good to >> use a nice scheme for the update URLs, something like: >> http(s)://netbeans.apache.org/updates/9.0/updates.xml.gz >> >> This then would redirect to netbeans-vm.
