#2821: Google Chrome blocks download of daily build
-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: wenzeslaus | Owner: grass-dev@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: Website
Component: Website | Version: svn-trunk
Keywords: download, links, WinGRASS, security | CPU: Unspecified
Platform: MSWindows 8 |
-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
The following binary download is blocked by Google Chrome web browser on
MS Windows:

* https://grass.osgeo.org/download/software/ms-windows/
* http://wingrass.fsv.cvut.cz/grass71/
*
http://wingrass.fsv.cvut.cz/grass71/WinGRASS-7.1.svn-r67037-146-Setup.exe

It works fine in the MS Internet Explorer. The latest release version
works fine in Chrome. Looking at the URLs Chrome can be simply blocking
non-HTTPS content. Probably just `.exe` files, I was able to download
binary file from another non-HTTPS website.

Please see also #2807.

Unrelated: I'm using this occasion to see how Trac works with the Cc field
because I still don't understand it.

Hi Martin: you could consider a free SSL Certificate. I have done that for
some of my sites and can assist. It is a 10min effort.

I am not sure if I understand well. I installed on Windows 7 latest Chrome
browser and tried the link you noted. I was able to download .exe files
without any problem.

You understand. This is exactly what didn't worked. I guess it can be
random depending on time and perhaps country. This was observed on two
different computers on two different days.

I can confirm it, chrome says "wingrass....exe is malicious and Chrome has
blocked it". Happened on Windows 10. Gives
[https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/6261569?p=ib_download_blocked&hl=en&rd=1

WinGRASS-7.1.svn-r67314-21-Setup-x86_64.exe from both the http: and https:
addresses are labled as viruses. Of course, our agency is behind a web
proxy, so changes may be delayed.

No, my mistake. The 7.1 downloads are still labelled malicious and blocked
in Chrome.

I know this sounds weird, but I was just able to download the binary from
http, but from https Chrome blocked it. I repeated it twice.
