The server seems to be down for quite some time. I would suggest to add the manual instructions to main docs. Here are the steps:

1. Install Required System Dependency

Before downloading CARLA, install the necessary system dependency:

sudo apt-get -y install libomp5

2. Download the CARLA 0.9.15 Release

Download the CARLA_0.9.13.tar.gz file (approximately 16GB) from the official release:

wget https://carla-releases.s3.us-east-005.backblazeb2.com/Linux/CARLA_0.9.15.tar.gz

3. Unpack CARLA to the Desired Directory

Unpack the downloaded file to /opt/carla-simulator/:

tar -xzvf CARLA_0.9.15.tar.gz -C /opt/carla-simulator/

4. Install the CARLA Python Module

Finally, install the CARLA Python module and necessary dependencies:

python -m pip install carla==0.9.15
python -m pip install -r /opt/carla-simulator/PythonAPI/examples/requirements.txt

Still the same problem.
