When I install FUDforum, I get the following error:

Archive did not pass checksum test, CORRUPT ARCHIVE!
If you've encountered this error it means that you've:
downloaded a corrupt archive
uploaded the archive in ASCII and not BINARY mode
your FTP Server/Decompression software/Operating System added un-needed cartrige return (' ') characters to the archive, resulting in archive corruption.


I've used FUDforum v2.7.5 installer with and without zlib compression and also I have tried all the archives, the zip being opened with windows preinstalled unzip utility and 7-zip for the other 2 archives with no luck. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

If anyone wouldn't mind, I'd gladly let anyone install this for me if they wish....

What PHP version are you using? Also what is the md5 checksum of install.php that you are running?

you can use PHP's md5_file() function to get the md5 checksum of the install.php file.

The correct checksum is c20b33abde9093acaf8df978375f7c7d, if you are seeing something other then this, it means the file is corrupted.

I used HJsplit to check the checksum since I didn't know how to use the php function. However if someone tells me how, I can attempt to.

Just run this script in the same directory as the install.php is located in.
<?php
echo md5_file("./install.php");
?>

Ok, I used FUDforum_zl_2-7-5.tar.gz with 7-zip. Then I uploaded it via binary and checked and get 377f753a36bbedae4042de04440b193a.

Any ideas?
