Neil C Smith commented on NETBEANS-6175:
----------------------------------------
I don't think we can do anything but provide instruction. This is dependent on
the ASF download server / CDN? Curious which browsers too - can't replicate.
> Ensure Linux installer .sh files are downloaded rather than displayed

> Key: NETBEANS-6175
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-6175
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Environment: https://netbeans.apache.org/download/nb125/nb125.html
> Reporter: Sebb
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently it seems most browsers display the shell script rather than
> downloading it.
> Perhaps the download server could be updated to treat .sh files as non-text?
> This could be perhaps be done via a .htaccess file?
> If not, perhaps ask Infra.
> Alternatively, perhaps consider using a different extension that will be
> downloaded.
> In the meantime it might help to provide instructions on the download page as
> to how to ensure the file is downloaded rather than displayed.
> The other installers download OK, so it is a pity that the Linux one behaves
> differently.
