Easy Installer reported to respond "Try later" due to mismatch of checksums

  • /e/ version: e-1.12.3-s-20230615299639-stable-FP3.zip
  • Device model(s): FP3
  • Device rooted: NO

Summary

The issue is reported by a new user in the forum https://community.e.foundation/t/installer-stops-after-downloading-no-error-or-acknowledgement-just-a-try-again-button/46101/9 with a log

Easy Installer's log shows that non matching .zip and .zip.sha256sum are downloaded

What is the current behavior?

To start to triage the problem the following test replicates the issue

$ wget https://images.ecloud.global/stable/FP3/IMG-e-latest-s-FP3.zip
Saving to: ‘IMG-e-latest-s-FP3.zip’

$ sha256sum IMG-e-latest-s-FP3.zip
ef5a600a40d5a78ebb5ca7415ba28011b02708306c2ceaefd4ca1b05ffa2e984  IMG-e-latest-s-FP3.zip

$ wget https://images.ecloud.global/stable/FP3/IMG-e-latest-s-FP3.zip.sha256sum
Saving to: ‘IMG-e-latest-s-FP3.zip.sha256sum’

$ cat IMG-e-latest-s-FP3.zip.sha256sum 
4c84b7006859df9e5eb862fc8b59ff31dcfac30668e3ed1c2a484d2f653c506b  IMG-e-latest-s-FP3.zip

For comparion, these checksums are seen for the published FP3 ROMs found https://images.ecloud.global/stable/FP3/

What is the expected correct behavior?

Easy Installer should find

IMG-e-latest-s-FP3.zip and

IMG-e-latest-s-FP3.zip.sha256sum

and they should be of the ROM

ef5a600a40d5a78ebb5ca7415ba28011b02708306c2ceaefd4ca1b05ffa2e984 IMG-e-1.12.3-s-20230615299639-stable-FP3.zip

Possible fixes Please can it be checked if some form of networking error is causing this mismatch of download.
