Checksum fail for apache-tomcat-8.5.23-windows-x86.zip

Hi,


I downloaded the file from all mirror sites (including backups), but I get a different checksum than the one on the apache site. I am using fsum sha1.  Are the checksums on the site incorrect, or is fsum wrong?

Maybe you are comparing with checksum of a different file?  E.g.
windows-x86.zip vs windows-x64.zip vs .zip ?


The correct sha1:
5992ca5bf02a6ae6d901eb22e7d3309061b26e42 *apache-tomcat-8.5.23-windows-x86.zip

sha256:
acca2ce6217da70beb8f6b0d58054f2133276bd7328ff51ca51ae0125c1cf586
*apache-tomcat-8.5.23-windows-x86.zip

The value of sha256 can be used to search VirusTotal:

Officially, the recommended way to verify a file is to check its PGP signature.
https://www.apache.org/info/verification.html

Verifying the signature, using GPG (using the one included with Git
for Windows):
(omitting some unimportant messages)

$ gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 33C60243
gpg: requesting key 33C60243 from hkp server pgpkeys.mit.edu

The footprint is the same as of this key in
https://www.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-8/KEYS

For ages I used md5sum.exe and sha1sum.exe from GNU CoreUtils package
for Windows,
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/coreutils.htm

Nowadays I use the unix tools bundles with Git for Windows.
