Binary Downloads

We make binary versions of our code for the convenience of our users. In general, binaries are meant for developers who want to use the Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies (versus those who want to "hack" the technologies in order to integrate them into other products).

Depending on what kind of user you are, you'll want to use a particular type of build. We divide our available binaries into the following categories:

  • Release Builds
  • Milestone Builds
  • Nightly Builds
  • Demo Builds

Release Builds are those that are ready for Prime Time. This build is "as good as it gets!"

Milestone Builds are those that are somewhat stable but not crystal-clean. We have some confidence in them, but they are buggy and should only be used by advanced users who want to explore future product direction or take advantage of new features. For developers, these builds serve as a mechanism to track progress towards a release.

Nightly Builds are those that are very unstable (a.k.a. dynamite!). We have no confidence in them. They are for developers who are helping to develop the technology and want "the latest bits." Use at your own risk!

Demo Builds are useful for showing demonstrations of our products. For example, we packaged a sample Velocity application with a minimal distribution of Tomcat 3.x and 4.x.

Note only recent builds can be downloaded from this page. If you are looking for an older release please see here.

Release Builds

Using a mirror

We recommend you use a mirror to download our release builds, but you must verify the integrity of the downloaded files using signatures downloaded from our main distribution directories. The KEYS link next to the product links to the code signing keys used to sign the product. The PGP link downloads the OpenPGP compatible signature from our main site and the MD5 downloads the checksum also from the main site.

Not all our builds are available through mirrors yet.

You are currently using http://apache.mirror.mcgill.ca. If you encounter a problem with this mirror, please select another mirror. If all mirrors are failing, there are backup mirrors (at the end of the mirrors list) that should be available.
