checksum error attempting to unpax the IBM SDK for node.js pax file

  • 1.  checksum error attempting to unpax the IBM SDK for node.js pax file

    Posted Mon April 17, 2023 09:41 AM

    Trying to get Zowe running on z/OS V2R4. One of the pre-reqs is IBM SDK for node.js. I downloaded the IBM SDK node.js pax file:

    IBM Open Enterprise SDK for Node.js 18.0         

    ibm-node-v18.14.2-os390-s390x-202303231340.pax.Z 


    without error. When I try to unpax it on our z/OS V2R4 system, I get this error:

    /u/vendor/nodejs: >pax -rf ibm-node-v18.14.2-os390-s390x-202303231340.pax.Z -x pax 

    pax: checksum error on tape (got f962, expected 0)                                         
                                                                                               
    I have  attempted this three times; there is plenty of space in the filesystem and in the directory I am unpaxing into.

    Has anyone seen this error before?

    Hi,

    make sure you upload in binary mode.

    usually this happen when we transfer a binary using conversion option.
