gorby	guifre.cuni Hi, I confirm that I can not unzip the following file (md5sum): c235d79f4696d8916410c7d3547547d7 tango9-vm.zip unzip complains about "corrupted zipfile" Thanks, I guess the zip is broken, the same md5sum here: c235d79f4696d8916410c7d3547547d7 Andy, can you re-upload the file please? Best regards, Evgeny

Andy	Hi Evgeny, the zip file is not broken. I have just downloaded it and unzipped it on Windows. The md5sum is : `md5sum tango9-vm.zip c235d79f4696d8916410c7d3547547d7 tango9-vm.zip` The good news is you have downloaded the file correctly. The problem is zip on Linux. It does not seem to be able to unzip files bigger than 4 GB. I used 7z to unzip the file on Debian: `7z e tango9-vm.zip 7-Zip [64] 9.20 Copyright © 1999-2010 Igor Pavlov 2010-11-18 p7zip Version 9.20 (locale=en_US.UTF-8,Utf16=on,HugeFiles=on,16 CPUs) Processing archive: /users/goetz/tango/tango9-vm.zip Extracting tango9-vm.vdi Everything is Ok Size: 21264072704 Compressed: 6786854667` Apparently "jar xf tango9-vm.zip" also works but I haven´t tried it. Kind regards Andy

Hi Evgeny,

the zip file is not broken. I have just downloaded it and unzipped it on Windows. The md5sum is :

md5sum tango9-vm.zip

I've just tried 7z on Ubuntu 14.04 (p7zip 9.20) and it worked fine.

Thanks!

gorby	Hi Andy, thanks for the help, 7z worked just fine! Quite strange that linux unzip was able to extract tango9-vm_rc2.zip with no problems. Best regards, Evgeny

Philippe	Hi, I tried to get this VM but download is very slow. Is there any torrent to get it faster ? Meanwhile, is there anywhere an exhaustive list of the installed packages into this VM ? (It can be obtained by command "dpkg –get-selections"). Thank you. - Philippe Edited 8 years ago

Andy	Hi Philippe, What do you mean by slow? Can you quantify slow? How does one setup a torrent site? I have never done this. Are you trying the new release candidate for V9.2 : ftp://ftp.esrf.fr/pub/cs/tango/tango92-vm_RC1.zip Andy

Philippe	Andy Hi Philippe, What do you mean by slow? Can you quantify slow? It was announced to be finished downloaded 5 to 10 hours later, depending on the moment. It finally took 4 to 6 hours. I doubt it was due to my bandwidth since I am on Renater. Perhaps a lot of people try to get this image since it is a new one. It could divide the total bandwidth of esrf.org into a small bandwidth slots… Andy How does one setup a torrent site? I have never done this. You just need to share it into a bittorrent client, which is a P2P client. It will produce a torrent file which can be downloaded from several sites if several clients share it. Andy Are you trying the new release candidate for V9.2 : ftp://ftp.esrf.fr/pub/cs/tango/tango92-vm_RC1.zip Yes, this is the one I got. I finally got the exhaustive packages list, it is in attachment. Does anyone can send the packages list to install after the basic installation ? - Philippe Edited 8 years ago Attachments: 57Kb
