"The above URL" is https://netbeans.apache.org/nb/updates/12.0/ and that is correctly redirected to one of the mirrors, but this: https://netbeans.apache.org/nb/updates/12.0/updates.xml.gz is not. This is the intended behaviour. If a user manually downloads the file from a mirror, he is required to verify the signaure by ASF policy. If that happens - great, if not, the user shot himself into his foot. > > I assume all the links from `updates.xml` are then relative. > > The IDE treats as relative from the original link, not the end point. > This is the cause of problems, hence question about absolute linked > catalogs per mirror. Even the endpoint, that serves the updates.xml.gz is not the right point for the binary downloads. See my other reply for a possible solution, handling the creation of absolute links on the apache infrastructure.
