How to download magento

For the ones who didn't see the system:

Magento Version 1.x.y.z can be downloaded from

http://www.magentocommerce.com/downloads/assets/1.x.y.z/magento-1.x.y.z.zip

Works for Version smaller (not including) 1.9.2.0 The "problem" with versions 1.9.2.0+ is, that magento makes silent updates - changing code without changing the version number. But thankfully, they add the timestamp to the file now. So this system doesn't work anymore, but we now know the REAL version we download.

1) First you need to generate download token. Login to your account on magento.com and generate it in Account Settings->Downloads Access Token

2) You will need your MAGEID as well. It is shown at the top-left in your account page.

3) curl -k https://MAGEID:[email protected]/products/downloads/info/help

4) Profit!


Wondering why nobody mentioned https://github.com/OpenMage/magento-mirror


I am unable to re-create a login loop. It's likely you have a cookie or cache problem causing this issue.

However, you should be able to download the latest CE version of Magento via ssh or your local shell by running the following:

wget http://www.magentocommerce.com/downloads/assets/1.9.0.1/magento-1.9.0.1.tar.gz

More info here: http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/1_-_installation_and_configuration/installing_magento_via_shell_ssh

(or you can just point your browser to http://www.magentocommerce.com/downloads/assets/1.9.0.1/magento-1.9.0.1.tar.gz ;)

Well, since mage doesn't have a generic latest.tar.gz link - the current latest is now http://www.magentocommerce.com/downloads/assets/1.9.1.1/magento-1.9.1.1.tar.gz - hopefully they remedy the link situation w/ M2
