IntelliJ 404 scala lang

Ok, I need some help in setting up a Scala project with IntelliJ, I have download and installed the project successfully, but i have had issues when it comes to installing the Scala compiler itself, WHen i go to configure a new Scalaa project and choose to set the Scala home, I choose the download Scala option and i get the following error "downloading failed, connection failed with error 404: http://www.scala.lang.org/downloads.distrib/files/scala2.10.0+RC2.tgz" i have tried downloading the things, such as primefaces and jSF through intelij, and they all work fine, any suggestions?

You should be using SBT to define and build your project. Among other things, it handles retrieving the Scala compiler and libraries. IDEA is similarly self-contained as far as its Scala plug-in's internal Scala compiler is concerned. By using SBT and IDEA (see below for connecting the two), the only thing not covered is a Scala REPL for use outside of either SBT or IDEA. If you're using a Mac, Homebrew includes a Scala formula. Because SBT retrieves the Scala compiler and libraries for the version of Scala you specified, everything is self-contained.

By far the best way to build and maintain IDEA project definitions for Scala projects is with the sbt-idea plug-in for SBT. Once you install that plug-in, which is trivial, you simply use the gen-idea SBT task it provides. When your dependencies change, you run gen-idea again to update the project.

Download Scala manually and just select proper directory in new project window.
