[Qgis-user] QGIS.org Mac DL Links failing?

[Mr. Stace D Maples]

So, I’ve cleared caches, tried in private mode, and tried 2 different (private) VPNs, too. My colleague, next door, can’t DL the MacOS versions, either.

We are both able to DL the Windows versions.

Here’s an oddity: I am able to DL the file, using Brave, in Private/Tor mode. Or, at least, it has started downloading. I’ll let you know if it completes, and is valid. It will be a while, Tor is SLOOOOOOOOOW.


(Please note that my laptop inserts random double keystrokes. Sometimes, I just can’t repair all  of it.)

Recently I was in an environment where they had a so called 'netscaler' (as outgoing proxy I think) to 'clean and guard' downloads from the internal office.
With me that meant:
- using pip: 95% of packages went ok, but some of them triggered something on the netscaler, making it abort the download
- same with npm runs
- same with some installers or zips/jars...

So: could it be that there is 'something' in between the connections between QGIS and this mac's?

In cases of failure, moving to another (4G or another physical) connection, does that help?
