Apache OpenOffice - How to verify downloads with checksum files?

+
+ + +
+ +
+ +

How to verify your download with ASC, MD5, SHA256 checksums?

+ +

A checksum and hash prcossed on the files that were downloaded is a way to make sure that the content is authentic and +was not manipulated by an unauthorized third party, and has not been damaged during the download process.

+
+ +

Verify with ASC and KEYS hashes

+ +

This is how you verify with ASC and KEYS hashes on Windows

+
+ +
    +
  • + Download and install "Gpg4win" (by Intevation GmbH, Germany). "Gpg4win" (full name is "GNU Privacy Guard for Windows") + is used to encrypt data.
  • +
  • For verifying the hashes you need the program "GnuPg". This is a tool that runs not in the graphical mode but in the + command prompt of Windows. Therefore you have to enter always the full path (default location after installation: + C:\Program Files\Gnu\GnuPg\gpg.exe) until you add it to the $PATH system environment + variable.
  • +
  • Save the following file with your Internet browser to the location where the downloaded AOO file is stored:
  • +
  • https://people.apache.org/keys/group/openoffice.asc
  • +
  • Open the start menu and enter cmd.exe into the search box.
  • +
  • Now change to the directory with the downloaded AOO and ASC file, import and verify with the following commands:
  • +
  • cd <path_to_AOO_and_ASC_file>
  • +
  • C:\Program Files\Gnu\GnuPg\gpg.exe --import openoffice.asc
  • +
  • C:\Program Files\Gnu\GnuPg\gpg.exe --verify <ASC file>.asc <AOO file>.exe
  • +
  • When both checksums match it is indicated with an "Good signature from <Person who has created the signature> + statement.
    Otherwise "BAD signature from ...".
  • +
+
+ +

This is how you verify with ASC and KEYS hashes on Linux

+
+ +
    +
  • Open a terminal and change to the directory with the downloaded AOO and ASC file.
  • +
  • Type in the following commands:
  • +
  • cd <path_to_AOO_and_ASC_file>
  • +
  • wget https://people.apache.org/keys/group/openoffice.asc
  • +
  • gpg --import openoffice.asc
  • +
  • gpg --verify <ASC file>.asc <AOO file>.tar.gz
  • +
  • When both checksums match it is indicated with an "Good signature from <Person who has created the signature> + statement.
    Otherwise "BAD signature from ...".
  • +
+
+ +

This is how you verify with ASC and KEYS hashes on Mac OS

+
+ +
    +
  • A requirement is that you have installed GnuPG.
  • +
  • Open a terminal (usually from here: "/Applications/Utilities").
  • +
  • Type in the following commands:
  • +
  • cd <path_to_AOO_and_ASC_file>
  • +
  • curl https://people.apache.org/keys/group/openoffice.asc -o openoffice.asc
  • +
  • gpg --import openoffice.asc
  • +
  • gpg --verify <ASC file>.asc <AOO file>.dmg
  • +
  • When both checksums match it is indicated with an "Good signature from <Person who has created the signature> + statement.
    Otherwise "BAD signature from ...".
  • +
+
+ +

Verify with MD5 hashes

+ +

This is how you verify MD5 checksums on Windows

+
+ +
    +
  • + Download "File Checksum Tool" (by KRyLack Software). "File Checksum Tool" is a graphical tool that is easy to use. + + See here for a screenshot.
  • +
  • Start the tool from where you have saved the downloaded file.
  • +
  • Section "1) File to Verify": Insert the path and filename of the downloaded AOO file. The [Browse] button will + help to locate it with the Windows Explorer.
  • +
  • Section "2) Hashing Algorithm": Choose "MD5".
  • +
  • Section "3) File Checksum": Click on [Calculate Hash].
  • +
  • Section "4) Verify With": Paste the hash from the MD5 file you have downloaded. First you have to open it and + copy the hash value.
  • +
  • Finally, click on [Compare].
  • +
  • When both hash values match a dialogbox shows "Checksums match". Otherwise "Checksums do not match".
  • +
  • If the checksums do not match, please see the section below.
  • +
+
+ +

This is how you verify MD5 checksums on Linux

+
+ +
    +
  • Open a terminal and change to the directory with the downloaded AOO and MD5 file.
  • +
  • Type in the following commands:
  • +
  • cd <path_to_AOO_and_MD5_file>
  • +
  • md5sum -c <AOO file>.tar.gz.md5
  • +
  • When both checksums match it is indicated with an "<AOO file>.tar.gz: OK" statement. +
    Otherwise "md5sum: WARNING: 1 of 1 computed checksum did NOT match".
  • +
  • If the checksums do not match, please see the section below.
  • +
+
+ +

This is how you verify MD5 checksums on Mac OS

+
+ +
    +
  • Open a terminal (usually from here: "/Applications/Utilities").
  • +
  • Type in the following commands:
  • +
  • cd <path_to_AOO_and_MD5_file>
  • +
  • openssl dgst -md5 <AOO file>.dmg
  • +
  • cat <MD5 file>.md5
  • +
  • Now compare both MD5 checksums.
  • +
  • If the checksums do not match, please see the section below.
  • +
+
+ +

For more information please refer to the more detailed description about how to use MD5 hashes on Windows, Linux and via Firefox (for all platforms)..

+
+ +

Verify with SHA256 hashes

+ +

This is how you verify SHA256 checksums on Windows

+
+ +
    +
  • + Download "File Checksum Tool" (by KRyLack Software). "File Checksum Tool" is a graphical tool that is easy to use. + + See here for a screenshot.
  • +
  • Start the tool from where you have saved the downloaded file.
  • +
  • Section "1) File to Verify": Insert the path and filename of the downloaded AOO file. The [Browse] button will + help to locate it with the Windows Explorer.
  • +
  • Section "2) Hashing Algorithm": Choose "SHA-256".
  • +
  • Section "3) File Checksum": Click on [Calculate Hash].
  • +
  • Section "4) Verify With": Paste the hash from the SHA256 file you have downloaded. First you have to open it and + copy the hash value.
  • +
  • Finally, click on [Compare].
  • +
  • When both hash values match a dialogbox shows "Checksums match". Otherwise "Checksums do not match".
  • +
  • If the checksums do not match, please see the section below.
  • +
+
+ +

This is how you verify SHA256 checksums on Linux

+
+ +
    +
  • Open a terminal, change to the directory with the downloaded AOO file and SHA256 file.
  • +
  • Type in the following commands:
  • +
  • cd <path_to_AOO_and_SHA256_file>
  • +
  • sha256sum -c <AOO file>.tar.gz.sha256
  • +
  • When both checksums match it is indicated with an "<AOO file>.tar.gz: OK" statement. +
    Otherwise "sha256sum: WARNING: 1 of 1 computed checksum did NOT match".
  • +
  • If the checksums do not match, please see the section below.

    +
  • Open a terminal (usually from here: "/Applications/Utilities").
  • +
  • Type in the following commands:
  • +
  • cd <path_to_AOO_and_SHA256_file>
  • +
  • openssl dgst -sha256 <AOO file>.dmg
  • +
  • cat <SHA256 file>.sha256
  • +
  • Now compare both SHA256 checksums.
  • +
  • If the checksums do not match, please see the section below.
  • +
+
+ +

What to do when the checksums do not match?

+ +
    +
  • If the checksums do not match, your downloaded AOO file is broken. Please try again a download to get a valid + file.
  • +
  • If you are using a proxy server to get connected to the Internet try to disable this if your Internet Service + Provider is allowing this. Or enable it if it is disabled at the moment. Please consult the respective help topics for + the used Internet browser where to find this setting.
  • +
  • If you still get no matching checksum and you are sure it is not caused by an error during downloading, please + inform the project. Make sure you have the following information at hand: exact file name of the downloaded file and + checksum file, the processed checksum from your computer, have you used proxy server (yes/no)?, if known from where the + files were downloaded.
