Here are few steps to ensure that you have your FishEye configured properly for this. (I'm using FishEye 3.0.1, but the procedure should be the same in older versions)
Step 1:
Check Allow users to download repository trees as tarballs
on /admin/admin.do#repositorydefaults-tarballs
:
These are only default settings and will allow all repositories created after this to be downloaded as tarballs.
Step 2:
Ensure that your current repository (the one that you want to download) either using default settings or has tarballs enabled on /admin/admin.do#repositories-view-<your_repo>
, section Tarballs
:
Step 3:
Go to /browse/<your_repo>
. There should now be a link Download archive
:
Hope this helps.
