I hope the sun has updated the patch to address this download problem.

Has the patch gone in yet?  I am still unable to download patches using
pca, wget, or curl.  I can download the via browser so it is probably
not an entitlement issue.

Hi Richard,

We have identified a bug in the new Entitlement Service that is called 
prior to proceeding with a patch download from Akamai.
The bug usually leads to transient 403 or 500 errors from the 
Entitlement Service, similar to what you are seeing below, though I have

not seen the errors persist like this on subsequent retries before.

I have tested this fix in Beta over the past week almost now and have 
confirmed that it will eliminate these errors (famous last words, I
know!).

The good news is that the fix is due to be pushed to production in 
Thursday morning (Pacific Time).
Once this is live you should no longer see these errors (unless of 
course you really aren't entitled to a patch, in which case you will get

a 403).

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best,
-Don
