Folks,

I am sorry, but I am completely lost with SourceForge as the iSphere
update site. I am as sure as I could be that I properly followed the
instructions here:

http://elmuerte.blogspot.de/2009/08/eclipse-update-site-on-sourceforge.html

a) I opted for the .htaccess approach and did not mirror site.xml.

b) I added the url property to site.xml like this:

<site
url="http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/isphere/beta-version/eclipse/rdi8.0";>

c) I created .htaccess like this:

# Default index page
DirectoryIndex index.html

# Enable URL rewriting
RewriteEngine On

# Do not redirect requests to the root directory
RewriteRule ^\s*$ $1 [L]

# Do not redirect requests to 'index.html'
RewriteRule ^(index.html)$ $1 [L]

# Do not redirect requests to 'assets'
RewriteRule ^(assets/.*)$ $1 [L]

# Redirect requests of root resources to the master site
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)$
http://master.dl.sourceforge.net/project/isphere/beta-version/eclipse/rdi8.0/$1
[L]

# The rest goes to the auto-mirror location
RewriteRule (.*)
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/isphere/beta-version/eclipse/rdi8.0/$1
[L]

The only difference is that I do not redirect requests to the root
directory and to "index.html", because the root directory stores the
iSphere homepage.


Is the a brave guy who wants to join the project and fix that?

Please update iSphere from the zip file until the update site problem
has been fixed.

Regards,

Thomas.

Thank you Brian - downloading the ZIP worked!
