How To Download Software or Patches From Oracle E-Delivery


Have you ever wanted to automatically download all of the patches on an Oracle E-Delivery page? We have, and we thought this script might be useful to others.


Script: get_edelivery.sh_.txt. See attached zipped scripts.


Prerequisites:



  • Firefox Browser on your desktop

  • Export Domain Cookies Firefox Plugin - You may use Cookie Exporter from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-exporter/

Instructions:



  • Visit Oracle E-Delivery.

  • Select the software you would like to download and navigate to the patch download page.

  • Note the "egroup_aru_number" from the URL.

    • For example, the number is 11249872 for URL http://edelivery.oracle.com/EPD/Download/get_form?egroup_aru_number=1124....

  • Export your browser cookies using the "Export Domain Cookies" Firefox Plugin.

  • Copy your cookies file to the server.

  • Run the download script from the directory where you are going to download the patches.

    • get_edelivery.sh 11249872 cookies.txt

The script will download all of the patches available via "Download" buttons on the E-Delivery page. At the very end, it will perform a checksum on each file. If a file fails, you can delete the corrupt file and run the script again
