Download corrupted

[Erk-]

Can't download the installer from: http://repo.steamstatic.com/download/SteamOSInstaller.zip

[krisives]

What error do you get?

[ChlorideCull]

Most certainly feels like just an overloaded server. I'd, personally, wait until the initial rush dies down a bit.

[JensMagnus]

Unexpected end of archive. Make a torrent please.

[ghost]

There are a few reports of the download stopping or appearing to "complete" - i.e. the download stopped for me at 4.4 megabytes.

See http://steamdb.info/blog/35/#reply-969

wget -c download link, so the download continues on reset. (It appears the connections are reset about every 60 seconds)

wget -c download link, so the download continues on reset.

Thanks, that works. But extreme slow..

[ghost]

Just hold off for the moment, or if you are able to get a complete download then post the sha1sum here, and I'll work with someone to get a torrent up

[lkarsten]

if the 60s abort/connection close report is right, and you are in fact using varnish as headers indicate; consider increasing send_timeout in varnish for better results.

[tralamazza]

+1 on the SHA1

[jordanrinke]

Yeah, as soon as it is down we need to just source a torrent, and seed. I am only at 250mb

[malkia]

Not much success yet - I'm using "wget -m" from cygwin64 on windows (thinking of making a virtualbox image later):

E:\p\valve>wget -m http://repo.steamstatic.com/download/SteamOSInstaller.zip
--15:44:37-- http://repo.steamstatic.com/download/SteamOSInstaller.zip
=> `repo.steamstatic.com/download/SteamOSInstaller.zip'

.... snippped (Sorry about the long post)...

/download/SteamOSInstaller.zip
(try:11) => `repo.steamstatic.com/download/SteamOSInstaller.zip'

@malkia can you trim your reply down a bit?

[beeradmoore]

http://repo.steampowered.com/download/SteamOSInstaller.zip

Use this instead as it uses the CDN. (Source: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamuniverse/discussions/1/648814395787298909/)

[ChlorideCull]

@ytn3rd That did the trick. A whole lot faster, and less resets.

[krisives]

I have a download trickling from the CDN powered "steampowered.com" and will post a SHA + torrent once done.

[karbowiak]

@krisives http://steamdb.info/blog/35/ has an unofficial torrent up. :)

[ghost]

@karbowiak I'm looking to confirm that steamdb.info hasn't modified the files first.

[krisives]

@karbowiak Thanks didnt want to download Rebecca BLack Linhux on accident. Torrent hash is

1e4dae83371ba704d5d89e1828068ef0c4151e32

Fuck da police

[cperrin88]

If your hash is correct @krisives, then torrent is valid as well (has the same hash)

[bootkiller]

Steam published MD5 and SHA512 on their official repos.
http://repo.steampowered.com/download/

[alfred-valve]

Please use repo.steampowered.com, the steamstatic link is our internal address and not balanced by a CDN front end.
