[yocto] Failure while running bitbake: gcc-4.5.0.tar.bz2 seems to be corrupted

[Tian, Kevin]

could you double confirm the link below is used in your side?

Ideally the gnu mirror should be used, e.g. ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-4.5.1/gcc-4.5.1.tar.bz2 in my log though it's 4.5.1

If the upstream tar ball itself is broken, there's nothing to do with bitbake itself. You have to find an alternative download site with a good tar ball, or wait for the original link to fix the problem. We did observe one or a few such issues, but it's very rare case and we haven't seen such report on gcc yet.

Thanks
Kevin

The file seems to be copied from here by bitbake:

http://gcc.get-software.com/releases/gcc-4.5.0/gcc-4.5.0.tar.bz2

I manually downloaded it too it still shows up to be corrupted.

Not sure what does one do in such cases..

Thanks

could you try manually download the tar ball from the link, and then copy to the /home/rsaxena/poky-4.0-build/downloads/?

Thanks

Hi,

 I get a failure when I run the bitbake  example stated in the Yocto Project Quick Start Guide

$ bitbake poky-image-sato

Gives the following error:

>>
NOTE: Running task 256 of 1633 (ID: 1585, /home/rsaxena/poky-laverne-4.0/meta/recipes-devtools/gcc/gcc-cross-initial_4.5.0.bb, do_unpack)

ERROR: Task failed:

<<

I find that if I manually try to untar the downloaded gcc-4.5.0.tar.bz2 file, I get a "not a bzip2 file" error.
I get the same error if I  download the file again and untar it.

So it seems like the  gcc-4.5.0.tar.bz2 is corrupted for some reason.

Pl let me know of any suggestions on how to get this resolved..

Thanks
Rahul
