Pix 515 chksum error

I have a serious problem with Pix 515 UR. I have upgraded the system to 6.3.5 and the Pix didn't boot after reload. The monitor shows the following error:

imgsum_config: sumval(0xe5be) md5(0x95937073 0x75b817db 0x54d7811a 0xba7d0214)

imgsum_verify: chksum(0x 0) md5(0x09e1b9df 0xc9f06c06 0x12e9f5df 0xdf89f7cb)

Panic: kernel - The checksum verification for this image failed.

I can't upload any image newer than 6.0.1. 5.2.3 and 6.0.1 work OK until restart. After reloading the unit I get the same checksum error. What's strange is than chksum is always shown as (0x 0). I've had erased the flashfs with erasedisk622.bin and it didn't help.

Any help will be very appreciated.

Regards

Jan

could you verify the md5 checksum of the image you have. try downloading from a different pc or a different browser..

try to calculate teh checksum of the image you are downloading by this tool

if the checksum is correct. then you have a flash problem

Hi,

I did... I have downloaded multiple images from 3 computers. MD5 was always OK. But it must have been a hardware problem. I have finished the last tests on thursday and left the box on the table for the weekend. On monday I tried to test some more and it doesn't boot up. The power LED doesn't turn on at all. The fans are working fine. I have no idea what's wrong.

I am having the same error now, after doing a very similar thing.

  • Tried to upgrade PIX 515 to pix622.bin.
  • Pix didn't boot after reload.
  • Reverted to pix601.bin.
  • Worked, and all my usage of the PIX works as before.
  • However, upon reload I get the following error:

Reading 2445824 bytes of image from flash.

imgsum_config: sumval(0x1f8e) md5(0x95937073 0x75b817db 0x54d7811a 0xba7d0214)
