Hi Matthias,

Sorry for the late reply.

I see your point, I just can't understand why this computes the URLs on the server side (in the netbeans-vm php file) and not on the client side (in the IDE itself).

Wouldn't it be easier to let the user choose her preferred mirror(from a drop down list, for example) and then compute the appropriate URLs from that? I have a limited understanding on the internals of the update center logic, so I usually get lost on this.

Thanks,
Antonio

@Antonio, Neil: Here is the setup I used to simulate:

$docRoot/apache/netbeans/netbeans/11.3/nbms/updates.xml holds update.xml from 
NB 11.3
$docRoot/apache/netbeans/netbeans/11.2/nbms/updates.xml holds update.xml from 
NB 11.2
$docRoot/apache/proxy-chooser/updates.php holds the script from the above git 
repository, the folder is writeable by the webserver
