Screenshot of outdated page

As can be seen in the attached screenshot, the page with the following URL (and presumably others), titled "JRE Missing", suggests Eclipse 2019-03 is the latest release: 
https://download.eclipse.org/oomph/jre/index-handler.php?vm=1_1_8_0_64_0&pn=Eclipse%20Installer&pu=http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Installer&pi=http://download.eclipse.org/oomph/jre/128x128.png

The latest release is currently 2019-06.

Ed, why was this marked as a duplicate of ticket #550117?

I cannot fix this.  

My PHP script in /home/data/httpd/download.eclipse.org/oomph/jre/index-handler.php does not hard code the current release.

It's just using common infrastructure that apparently is generating old results.

But I'm no PHP expert who could figure out where this actually comes from.  One of the web guys will need to have a look.

Ed, I will take a look but could you share a link to the source code for this page /home/data/httpd/download.eclipse.org/oomph/jre/index-handler.php?
Comment 5 Ed Merks CLA 2019-08-16 14:06:43 EDT 
That is the source. It's maintained directly in that location in the file system and exists only in that location.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
