The APS “Common Support Modules" page at https://epics.anl.gov/modules/common.php also pointed to the same address, but those links should be to https://www-csr.bessy.de/control/SoftDist/sequencer/ which works for me (just change http: into https:).

It appears that the web-server's http redirector isn’t actually pointing to the https web-server, resulting in infinite loops.

I just fixed the http: links on the APS EPICS website, including the one above.

The sequencer page:

 http://epics.web.psi.ch/software/sequencer/

Says the EPICS sequencer now lives here:

 http://www-csr.bessy.de/control/SoftDist/sequencer

But trying to access that page in firefox results in this error:

 The page isn’t redirecting properly

 Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

And attempting to wget the 2.2.9 release results in these errors:
