Dear DirectAdmin,

May I suggest that -

when we update the DirectAdmin panel, DA (the old version one e.g. 1.45.4) will test the downloaded tar.gz integrity before extracting it ?

It comes to a few times (over 10 times in my memory) that the auto download is broken, and I need to proceed manual update to fix it.

In a rare circumstance, the /usr/local/directadmin/directadmin is OK , but /usr/local/directadmin/dataskq is corrupted
So that we are not aware the scheduled job is broken.

This is an automated message notifying you that an error has occurred while trying to update the software.
The generated error message is as follows:

Error restoring file /usr/local/directadmin/update.tar.gz :
gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
/bin/tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
/bin/tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
/bin/tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
: tar returned error code 512<br>
<br>
<br>
Try updating manually: http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=29<br>


Thank you very much for your kind attention.

Regards
George
