Java patch download failure "The request is forbidden.Http Status Code :: 403"
Hi, I am having a Java patch download failure, with the above error being logged in the "Action Log Viewer". There is a linked KB article that takes you here:
This article is about how you should have access to a list of common patch download sites set as accessible in whatever proxy you are using. However, when I go to the DC patch link:
javascript:dcOpenWindow('patchinfopatchdetails.do?actionToCall=patchDetailsDO&patchDetails=true&PATCHID=307814' , 'PatchDetails');
It shows the full information regarding the patch. In this information is the download link URL, for the patch, from the original Oracle Web site:
When I go to this link, I am redirected to the Oracle Web site; however, is appears the problem with downloading the patch is not due to a proxy block but what appears to be a change in Oracle's download policy. This means that, instead of downloading the patch, you are presented with he following message:
Sorry!
In order to download products from Oracle Technology Network you must agree to the OTN license terms. Be sure that... Your browser has "cookies" and JavaScript enabled.
From here you can go...
I have searched this community, as well as searching in Google and can't find anything on this issue.
Please advise.
Cheers,
