MySQL Bugs: #45696: MD5 error on install

Bug #45696	MD5 error on install
Submitted:	24 Jun 2009 10:13	Modified:	7 Dec 2016 18:34
Reporter:	Greg Hall	Email Updates:
Status:	Unsupported	Impact on me:	None
Category:	MySQL Server: Installing	Severity:	S3 (Non-critical)
Version:	5.1	OS:	Linux (RHE4 x86)
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
I get an error when attempting to install version 5.1 on Linux as follows:

rpm --nosignature -i MySQL-server-community-5.1.35-0.rhel4.i386.rpm
error: MySQL-server-community-5.1.35-0.rhel4.i386.rpm: MD5 digest: BAD Expected(76dd9cb1d823c8c34ba39de76a739674) != (6be61491f57c2e65b82134564e080025)
error: MySQL-server-community-5.1.35-0.rhel4.i386.rpm cannot be installed

It appears that the check sum is incorrect. I have tried downloading the package from different mirrors, but get the same error.

The client and shared libraries installed OK.

Please advise,

Regards,
Greg

How to repeat:
run the command:

rpm --nosignature -i MySQL-server-community-5.1.35-0.rhel4.i386.rpm

on an athlon x86 machine running RHE4, using the current download

Thank you for the report.

I can not repeat described behavior. Please provide accurate link to download you used.

Hi

The download links I tried were the direct Download link from mysql.com :
 
http://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-5.1/MySQL-server-community-5.1.35-0.rhel4.i386.rp...

and also a mirror site at Canterbury, UK :

http://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-5.1/MySQL-server-community-5.1.35-0.rhel4.i386.rp...

Both gave the same MD5 error

Regards,
Greg

Many thanks for writing a bug report.

Please try to download actual version 5.1.36 and let us know if you have same md5 problem here.

Presumably a transient error at the time. Closing this.
