[MDEV-26989] PCRE2 download URL is invalid Created: 2021-11-07  Updated: 2021-11-07  Resolved: 2021-11-07

Status: Closed
Project: MariaDB Server
Component/s: Server
Affects Version/s: 10.5, 10.6, 10.7
Fix Version/s: 10.5.13, 10.6.5, 10.7.1

Windows


 Description   

The following URL for downloading PCRE2 is already invalid.
http://ftp.pcre.org/
Because https://www.pcre.org/ says "Note that the former ftp.pcre.org FTP site is no longer available. You will need to update any scripts that download PCRE source code to download via HTTPS, Git, or Subversion from the new home on GitHub instead.".

Therefore, We fail to build MariaDB 10.5 or later for Windows.
Because MariaDB can't download PCRE2 source codes when MariaDB is built by CMake.

We need to use the following URL for downloading PCRE2 source codes.
https://github.com/PhilipHazel/pcre2.git

Thanks!

This was already fixed in a commit https://github.com/MariaDB/server/commit/8d7196cdf165843b7b1271e2616bd57be359e1da and will be in the next release.
