RE: DVD downloads from Edelivery fails at random points

I wouldn't bother if I was you! :-(

You had better luck than me then!

>> Anyone else able to download large files from Edelivery?
Not for a long time I'm afraid. I've reported it but nothing has improved. I've completely failed to download:

• OEL 5 on DVD
• Oracle VM plus utilities/extras/whatevers.
• 11.2 base release.
• 11.2 patch release.

Everything failed miserable in exactly the same way you described. In the end, I ordered them all from Oracle on DVD and they arrived - wrongly! They sent me OEL 32 bit rather than 64 bit. However, credit where it's due, a replacement was with me the very next day.

I've never received the Oracle VM though - that never arrived, I got hold of VirtualBox instead and it works beautifully.

Cheers,
Norm.
