Welcome to the ncbi-vdb wiki!

ATTENTION:

VDB has transitioned to all HTTPS access with release, 2.8.0, as of October 7, 2016. It is critically important that you update all of your binaries and your configuration files, because your old binaries will stop working as of December 30, 2016.

This is in response to OMB memorandum M-15-13 issued on June 8, 2015, requiring all Federal HTTP servers to stop using (simple) HTTP and switch to HTTPS.

Please update your software as soon possible to give some time to ensure continued operation.

Proxy users take note - this complicates proxy usage somewhat. We will create a Wiki page dedicated to supported proxy configuration and firewall settings to help users during the conversion.
