Download file for Joomla 1.0.0 corrupt?

Post by webchik » Tue Sep 20, 2005 1:51 am

Hi there - forgive me if i am wrong, but i have followed the link to download the Joomla 1.0 (just recently started playing with Mambo, and am thinking seriously of converting to Joomla), and the download does not appear to be working, ie, i can unzip the files, but the filenames are empty with weird filenames and folder structure.  Does look a little odd!

Here is the link:  http://developer.joomla.org/sf/frs/do/v ... omla_1_0_0

Am I missing something?

Many thanks in anticipation of a reply!

You're 100% sure that the download completed? There isn't any type of CRC errors when unzipping?

Does seem odd. last time I checked we had over 11,000 downloads of Joomla! 1.0 without a report of a problem (as far as I have seen).
All I can recommend is try the download again - if you still hae problems, post the file size that you received and checksum + how you are unpacking it.

Thanks

Still no joy.

However, in the meantime, I see that 1.01 has been released.  This download works fine for me!

Thankyou for your offerings of help - it was much appreciated!
