downloading big patches

[Nabil Boussetta]

i'd to download GOLDAPPS and GOLDBASE from ITRC. but the download process don't finish correctly because ITRC doesn't recognise the resume option when there is an interuption.

how to do to download this bundle ?

Hi Nabil:

First, you only need one bundle -- either the GOLDAPPS or the GOLDBASE. This misleading, but as the ITRC patch database notes, "Both the GOLDBASE11i and GOLDAPPS11i bundles including their respective patches are delivered within the same depot. The depot name on the Support Plus media is GOLDQPK11i."

Next, you have a choice of download methods. You can choose to download a script that will allow you to connect to an HP FTP server, or you can use your browser connection.

Choose a download that uses a compressed archive. I use the 'gzip' form and then having moved the downloaded bundle to my server, simply uncompress it with 'gzip -d'.

Regards!
