I attempted to install v2.60 via CVS download, gz file, zip file and bz2 file. Each time I install, I get the same error after step 1.

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.

The older versions of the software install but they cannot be upgraded to 2.60 for the same reason.

I am getting this checksum: 99e6e4e2d895e36252c5d55a81ba08bd for the install.php file.

What else is there to try?

Did you download the zlib compressed archived (with _zl_ in the filename) ?

Which one did you use to make the checksum?

The checksum was created for the the version that was download with the following command:

cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous(at)asuka(dot)prohost(dot)org:/forum21 checkout fud21_install

I believe it is the non _zl_ version.

After running the CVS command, did you append the archive to install.php via

php create_file_list install >> install.php

or
(compressed archive)

php create_file_list install 1 >> install.php

Yes I did. The checksum for that file is be7ef72682469837e19ab994d5361a6d. The checksum I send you before was for the non-appended file.

After generating the file, did you upload it to the server or did you create the archive already on the server and just tried running it with your browser?

Based on current CVS here are the correct checksums:

(Non compressed)

php create_file_list install >> install.php; md5sum install.php
ada9e244735331de6047ee67378863b9 install.php

(Compressed)

php create_file_list install 1 >> install.php; md5sum install.php
5867dc34bf8bb6712adbaf0516c46061 install.php

The last checksum I posted was for the install.php file in place after generating it. It was not moved at all.

The only think I had to do after running the cvs command was to edit the create_file_list script to make sure it pointed to php correctly.

I have not heard anything back. Does this mean you do not have an answer for me?

I am not sure what to say... I've tried the installer on several different systems both with & without compression and it had worked in all instances.

The problem is either that something modifies the archive or a problem with your PHP install.
