Problem | Customers are unable to download adrum js files from CDN location(cdn.appdynamics.com). The error message for each customer may differ. For example, some common errors seen are:
When you try to click the download option, it says No jsagent file can be downloaded from cdn.appdynamics.com.
When you click on the download option, it just navigates and throws HTTP 400 or Error 404
When you click on the "Download" button, the page keeps on "waiting" for the server for a very long time, then redirects you to the Controller restAPI download token. It will look something like this: http://controllerhost:8090/controller/restui/browserRUMConfig/downloadJSAgentZip?X-CSRF-TOKEN=4af3c63838922874d558da04b9dff079e07d1afb* It then immediately closes the connection with an "unexpectedly closed the connection" message.
Environment (AppD Version, Other Products Installed) affected: This issue is seen on 4.3.x and 4.4 Controllers.

Troubleshooting/Resolution
There can be multiple factors behind this download issue, so debug them step-by-step and apply the respective solutions as needed:
NOTE | See the Disclaimers, below, to help inform your workaround choice
Case 1: Is there an internet connection?
Check whether there is an internet connection on the Controller machine. Many times the Controller machine does not have internet so it can't connect to cdn.appdynamics.com for downloading files.
Solution Case 1: If you can not get internet on the Controller machine, you can use one of the workarounds given in the Quick Fix of this article, below.
Case 2: Is the firewall blocking connection on port 443?
The firewall is blocking the connection to cdn.appdynamics.com on port 443.
Solution Case 2: You need to open the firewall to connect to the CDN site in order to download the JSAgent files
Case 3: Is there a proxy between the Controller and internet?
There is a proxy in between.
Solution Case 3: If the Controller server is connected to the internet via http/https proxy, verify the controller proxy settings are set up correctly. If not, your network team needs to set the proxy parameters to allow outgoing traffic to be bypassed.
