Title: Secure download of bitcoin core fails (signature). Post by: picobit on October 22, 2014, 07:25:01 PM Hi,
I just tried upgrading Armory and Bitcoin Core using Armory's secure download. The download of the new version of Armory went well, but downloading Bitcoin Core failed with this error: Quote The download completed but its cryptographic signature is invalid. Please try the download again. If you get another error, please report the problem to support@bitcoinarmory.com. The downloaded data has been discarded. The error comes immediately, almost as if nothing is downloaded. So I assume that this is an error in the downloader. Running Armory 0.92.2. Finally, I should note that although I am still running OS X 10.9.5 I tried to download the version for OSX 10.10 as that was the only one available, and as the official version does not care about the exact OS X version (I assume Armory gives me the official build). Also, for Armory itself I downloaded for 10.9.4 as there is no 10.9.5 option at all. EDIT: Tried again with the newly installed Armory 0.92.3: Same error.

You can view the download links Armory uses here: https://s3.amazonaws.com/bitcoinarmory-media/dllinks.txt (https://s3.amazonaws.com/bitcoinarmory-media/dllinks.txt) The link for OS X on that list points here: https://bitcoin.org/bin/0.9.3/bitcoin-0.9.3-osx.dmg However the correct link is this: https://bitcoin.org/bin/0.9.3/bitcoin-0.9.3-macosx.dmg (https://bitcoin.org/bin/0.9.3/bitcoin-0.9.3-macosx.dmg) Close, but no cigar. In their defense, it looks like it used to be the correct link, but then the link was changed post launch: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.org/commit/5ebee77e56222d717ffc3606b8ed6c8c3687e384 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.org/commit/5ebee77e56222d717ffc3606b8ed6c8c3687e384) Of course you can always download it yourself; other than that we'll need to wait for a kind Armory dev to fix this (which happily won't require a new version of Armory I believe).

Yes, I have already downloaded it myself. Of course, in principle I now should check that the PGP signature used to sign it is actually the one belonging to the person it claims to belong to, and that he is actually the person that should be signing bitcoin core. If Armory can do that work for me, I can remain lazy. :) Title: Re: Secure download of bitcoin core fails (signature). Post by: etotheipi on October 24, 2014, 06:22:50 PM Ack. Good catch. I tend to check all the new downloads before pushing (or immediately after) version updates to make sure it was all smooth. It seems I actually did it right but they pulled the rug out from under me... thanks for finding that commit that changed and vindicating me from fault :)
It will be updated soon. Until then, you can still use the secure-downloader to confirm, just not execute the full download:

Your only fault was updating the Armory links too quickly after release :) |
