Hmmm, my current IP is resolved by DNS as "p508a3fc8.dip0.t-ipconnect.de" So the top-level domain shows my country. Your IP address resolves correctly to Germany when it's looked-up in our IP-to-country database (we don't use the domain name). SELECT ccode FROM geoip WHERE 1351237576 BETWEEN start AND end; +-------+ | ccode | +-------+ | de | +-------+ Can you confirm that this mirror list shows German/European mirrors first? http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.2.2-200702121330/eclipse-SDK-3.2.2-linux-gtk.tar.gz (In reply to comment #2) > Can you confirm that this mirror list shows German/European mirrors first? > http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.2.2-200702121330/eclipse-SDK-3.2.2-linux-gtk.tar.gz Please choose a mirror close to you Europe * [Germany] AG-DSN Sekt.

This looks good. In my example, I used the Callisto Discovery Site, now I checked Eclipse Updates, but also the top list consists of US sites. So this does not work correctly. Or I should change my update sites? Seems like UM is overriding our detected country code. Branko, according to bug 99412 comment 17 it seems that Eclipse UM sends the countryCode of a client in the HTTP request for a list of mirrors. Our servers automatically detect a client's country from the IP address, but we allow the countryCode to override this. In this case, the countryCode sent by UM is not correct. Where does UM get the client's countryCode from? Joerg, is this still a problem for you? Closing -- I can't reproduce this. (In reply to comment #6) > Closing -- I can't reproduce this. Sorry, Denis. I did not find to try this out. In the meanwhile, we changed our provider and have a static IP in the qsc.de domain. In the unexpected case, that I get this kind of issue again, I will tell you. Thank you for you help! Cheers, Jörg Moving to Community/Website |
