3.0.0.7 to 3.0.0.8 update FAIL

Post by mshanley »

Ran the update, it upgraded the kernel. Rebooted ran the update again, it downloaded a bunch of stuff then FAILS on MD5 Checksum and then aborts. (Md5 Checksum does not match! Aborting....)

I tried it 2 times same result :(

Md5 must match to continue upgrade. This is a download integrity measure.

If it does not, your update file is getting altered in transit or is only a partial download. Make sure there are no proxies or filters between you and the download site, http://dl.efa-project.org

I run a Linux based Firewall I have for 10 years... called Untangle.. im not taking it out now.

Upgrades have been working fine for the last year.

I will turn off The AV scanner and see if that is it...

Looks like it's working now..

Hi,

To resolve this problem, I've downloaded the file at this address : http://dl.efa-project.org/update/EFA-Up ... 0.8.tar.gz with Firefox and I've pushed the file in the directory /tmp/EFA-Staging with Winscp at 99% of download on EFA...
It's not academic, but it work !

Best regards.

Charles.

Had the same thing happen today. Untangle was blocking it.

It's because of the eicar.com testvirus:
