Problems trying to download ISO file from mirrors
« on: January 18, 2010, 12:31:50 AM »
Hello,

I am trying to download SME Server 7.4 from Internet and always got md5 checksum problems... I know it sounds like connection problems but I tried from almost all the available mirrors, at different locations.. via wireless, wired, and always the same. Torrent files from internet seems to be corrupted, Does anybody here knows a trusty and good location in order to try a new download?

Thanks in advance for any comment.

Code: [Select]
rsync --recursive --verbose --archive --partial --progress rsync://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/smeserver/releases/7/iso/i386/smeserver.iso .
Run the above from the sme command line, change download URL and iso filename as required. Don't leave out the dot at the end. You can use the same command to rsync against an existing iso file that is in the same folder you run the command from, only the differences will be downloaded (the original iso file will be overwritten though).

When download completes, run the command line md5 check.
Code: [Select]
md5sum smeserver.iso
