Version 4.0.3 is deprecated and no longer supported. The latest stable version is 4.2.0 which is available at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/octave.

(regarding #2: the appended html files come from the gz on bz2 files respectively.)

I tested a bit with the gzipped tarball.
looking there, I find the appended html files. and they weren't even at the end of the files. after them followed binary.

so, to my eyes, this looks like a bug in the webgui.

(file #39698, file #39699)

Can you be a bit more specific? What files are missing?

I downloaded it as bz2 and gz. Both files seem to be corrupted.

If one downloads tar ball from

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/00f7b278defd

the tar file is incomplete.

I am trying to download octave_4.0.3
