Need to download the latest Splunk Windows and Linux forwarders in response to critical findings in our most recent scan.   Getting a 500 error when accessing this site ==> https://www.splunk.com/en_us/download/universal-forwarder.html

Any ideas why?

I just downloaded with no problems.  Try the usual web fixes: clear cache and cookies, try a different browser, or use incognito mode.  You might also try copying the wget link into your CLI.

Was attempting to access these downloads from my company system.  Turns out Cross-Origin Resource Sharing is disabled by company policy.   Will download these from home.  Something to keep in mind when accessing from corporate sites.
