has been down again for 5+ hours…

Would it be difficult to move hosting of [download.slicer.org](http://download.slicer.org) to a more reliable provider?

The download link at the main page of 3D slicer seems not work. I tried it on different computers and internet environment. Where and how could I download it?

Operating system: Linux

Until the download page becomes available again, you can use the direct download links on [https://www.slicer.org/](https://www.slicer.org/) (in the red “Notice” box).

Hi everybody. The download site seems to be down again. I hope you can fix it soon, since I would like to try your software.

I tried to get the nightly version for linux, but I don’t see any download boxes, as in the Mac version…

Anyway, this is the error I get:

> Proxy Error  
> The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.  
> The proxy server could not handle the request GET /.
> 
> Reason: Error reading from remote server
> 
> Apache/2.2.3 (Red Hat) Server at [download.slicer.org](http://download.slicer.org) Port 80

Thanks 😉

Still down… Can anybody please see if it can be restored? Are there ways to improve its stability? It’s embarrassing that a simple semi-static page is so often inaccessible.
