The installer you are trying to use is corrupted or incomple

Post by Eaglebird »

Trying to install spring on another machine, I get this:

NSIS Error

Code: Select all

The installer you are trying to use is corrupted or incomplete.
This could be the result of a damaged disk, a failed download, or a virus.

You may want tocontact the authoer of this installer to obtain a new copy.

It may be possible to skip this check using the /NCRC command line switch (NOT RECOMMENDED).
1) I've redownloaded it on four or five different machines to try on this machine, with no luck.
2) Clean install of XP Pro, no virus activity.
3) /NCRC doesn't seem to work.
4) May be the windows installer 3.1

What is the file size of the installer? I have absolutely no idea on this one.

Mine are the size I stated above. It happens on each machine I try it on.
The download pauses at 12.5/12.8MB though, before jumping to 12.8 and finishing.

I think I may have found the problem. It seems that the size of the file is triggering the anti-virus scanner on the router and causing the last x number of bytes to be lost.
