Free CEE download is still pointing to 2.0p1 …

Hopefully some very big improvements…

Checkmk Enterprise Free downloads are not available yet.
In the time being, we will show only the p1 downloads for both Raw and Free.

We are fixing this at the moment.

EDIT: p1 is shown as latest version on all download pages for the time being. Workaround for CRE, CEE, CME: Replace p1 with p2 in the download link or go to the download archives.

On Checkmk Enterprise Edition Trial | Checkmk I still get only 2.0.0p1 as download for Ubuntu 16.04.

Also your tip with replacing the download url for p1 with p2 does not work and result in a 404 error.

Notausstieg0309, there was a caching issue. This has now been fixed and you should be able to download 2.0.0p2 of the trial for the Checkmk Enterprise Edition over there.

Martin’s tip of replacing p1 and p2 only worked for the Raw and Enterprise versions. In 2.0.0p2 there has been a slight change in the naming convention of the trial version, that is why it resulted in a 404.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
