RE: Reporting broken download link
Marcus, After I replied, I noticed IE came up with a dialog window to save the file. But when I clicked on it to save the file, I got: [cid:image003.jpg@01D34D91.531FDC70] It tells me it couldn't download it. As I mentioned, we have problems sometimes with IE 11, so I won't worry about this because I can get it in Firefox. But I thought you'd like to know. David * Marcus, When I right-click on the link and select "save target as", the right-click menu just disappears in my IE 11 (patched up to date). Happens also for KEYS and ASC. However, I tried Firefox, and right-click save as does work in Firefox, so I was able to download it. (I thought I used to be able to just double-click on these MD5 links, but maybe I'm remembering wrong.) We've been finding more and more IE 11 has trouble with a number of sites, so I won't worry about it. I can use Firefox for this. Anyway, thank you for your help. (The MD5sum did check out against the install file.)

Compared to ASC and KEYS I need to download the MD5 and SHA256 files instead of seeing them in my browser. So, can you right click the links and use "Save As" to download and save them locally? Does it work? Otherwise I would ask the system admin for help. I'm pretty sure it would work when you are at home. So, sending the hash values via mail to your work mailbox can help. Yes, a bit cumbersome ... ;-) HTH Marcus > -Original Message- > From: Marcus [mailto:marcus.m...@wtnet.de] > Sent: Wednesday, October 25, 2017 11:50 AM > To: dev@openoffice.apache.org > Cc: David Szott > Subject: Re: Reporting broken download link > > > > Am 25.10.2017 um 19:13 schrieb David Szott: >> I'm on https://www.openoffice.org/download/ (tried IE 11 and Firefox) and >> downloaded the Windows English (US) 4.1.4 full installation executable, but >> cannot get to the MD5 page.

RE: Reporting broken download link
Marcus, I copied and pasted the link below, which looks identical to the link on the http://www.openoffice.org/download/index.html page when I click on MD5 for Windows English US 4.1.4, and tried it again. When I go through our proxy server (here at work), it spins for a few minutes and then doesn't find the page. When I access the link through a non-proxied Charter connection, the link fails right away -- a blank page opens and immediately closes. But I can get to the KEYS and ASC links, just not the MD5 and SHA256 ones (I normally use MD5 to verify downloads).

Reporting broken download link
Hi, I'm on https://www.openoffice.org/download/ (tried IE 11 and Firefox) and downloaded the Windows English (US) 4.1.4 full installation executable, but cannot get to the MD5 page. I can pull up KEYS and ASC, but both MD5 and SHA256 links pull up a blank page that quickly closes. Thank you.
