Problem Note 37460: The SAS® Download Manager might fail with a checksum error when you try to download SAS software
 |  |  |  |
A checksum error might occur when you use the SAS Download Manager to download software. If an error occurs, the download stops and displays an error similar to the following, where nn is the number of the file that triggers the failure:
Error: Bad Checksum for file nn
While the file number that triggers the failure might vary, the common trait among checksum errors is that the failure will occur on the same file if you try the download again.
Following is an example of an error message that would appear in the resulting sdw.log in these circumstances:
SEVERE: Failed to download file C:\SAS Software Depot\download\itclient__92210__wx6__xx__sp0__1 \itclient__92210__wx6__xx__sp0__1.ezip with correct checksum. Wanted 346543dc11d1dcca8c1a58c4c5a5fe32 but got d20e99d81052cddf02aa7a045f000f94
Note that an actual error message would contain the file number that triggers the failure.
To correct the problem, download and install the latest SAS Download Manager®.
