Description Markus Knauer CLA 2008-02-26 02:30:35 EST
If you download a logfile (*.log) from one of the eclipse.org webservers...

* it opens in the browser (download.eclipse.org) -> that's what I like!
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/epp/downloads/release/ganymede/M5/cpp.log

* it opens in a new editor (build.eclipse.org) -> don't like that behavior
http://build.eclipse.org/technology/epp/epp_build/34/download/20080225-0440/cpp.log

Windows users have their problems with typical logfiles in their standard editor, because these logfiles do not contain a <CR><LF>. The other reason for opening the logfile in a browser is the usage of the reload button that refreshes the logfile while new content is added at the end.

Is it possible to add 'log' as an additional mime type to the build.eclipse.org Apache webserver configuration? I think a change like this would solve the problem 

  /etc/apache2/mime.types: text/plain txt asc log

The same difference exists between the build.eclipse.org and the download.eclipse.org webservers with *.sha1 and *.md5 checksum files.

Example:
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/epp/downloads/release/ganymede/M5/eclipse-cpp-ganymede-M5-win32.zip.md5
http://build.eclipse.org/technology/epp/epp_build/34/download/20080226-0750/20080226-0750_eclipse-cpp-ganymede-M5-win32.win32.x86.zip.md5

I've copied the common mime types file from eclipse.org to build.  Thanks for the suggestion.

Moving all these to Servers.
