Download aircraft from official hangar failed

Postby flight001 » Fri Jan 05, 2018 6:27 am

I'm sorry if I can't provide more detailed information.
I'm using OSX El Capitan and installing aircrafts from the official hangar is near impossible.

When I click the "install" button for Boeing 777-300, in the "aircraft" section of the flight gear launcher
the progress bar appeared but never progressed and it stayed at 0.0MB.

One time, there's this "Download of Boeing 777-300 failed: Invalid package checksum"
I did a total computer restart, reinstallation and multiple crosschecks but ended futile.
Can anyone help me solve and decipher that error message? I don't get it at all.
And I don't know why I can't download any kinds aircraft at the moment

I tried to use FlightGear 2017.3.1 and also FlightGear 2017.2.1, but it's still not downloading correctly

Once again, if my information is not detailed enough I would like to apologise.

Thank you for your attention!

Edit:
After another reinstall, there's an error message when adding the official aircraft hangar in the flightgear launcher.
"Failed to download aircraft descriptions from 'http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/flightgear/ftp/2017.3.1/catalog.xml'. Check the address (URL) and your network connection." But my internet connection is really good.

There are currently some server-side issues (there's other posts in the forum about the same topic) - so the http stuff doesn't work.

If you have an SVN client, direct SVN checkouts from the repository appear to work fine.

But also thanks for telling me what's actually going on, and I think terrasync is also unoperational right now.
