User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4
When I try to install version 0.8.0.1 of the XForms add-on, in my
Firefox 2.0.0.4, it starts to download and then reports the error
Firefox Could Not Install The File At
https://Addons.Mozilla.Org/En-Us/Firefox/Downloads/File/16445/Mozilla_Xforms-0.0.0.1-Fx+Sm-Macosx.Xpi
I installed 2.0.0.4 fresh on a Windows machine and had no trouble with
the Windows installer for XForms 0.8.0.1, so I suspect something uninteresting
went wrong in the OS-specific packaging of the add-on.
Because: Invalid File Hash (Possible Download Corruption)
-261
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. On a Mac OSX machine, in a Firefox 2.0.0.4 with no XForms add-in,
navigate to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/824
2. Click on the button reading "Install now (MacOSX)"
3. A modal dialog box will appear, with the message
You have asked to install the following item:
Mozilla XForms
from: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/...
and two buttons ('Cancel' and 'Install Now').
Click 'Install Now'.
Actual Results:
After the 'install now' button is clicked, a window entitled 'Add-ons'
appears. A second window, which looks like a progress-display window,
also appears very briefly, but then disappears and is replaced by a
message window containing the error message described above.
Expected Results:
What I expected, and what happened on the Windows machine, is that a
message appeared indicating the successful installation of the XForms
extension.
On the assumption that successful installation counts as a 'major'
feature of any extension, it's tempting to suggest that this be given
severity 'major'. That seems excessive, so I'm leaving it as normal.
But until it gets fixed, I can't do any XForms work with Firefox.

I seem to have inserted a comment in the middle of the transcription of the
error message. Sorry. The error message I'm receiving does not have
any digressive discussion of any Windows machine; it reads only
Firefox Could Not Install The File At
https://Addons.Mozilla.Org/En-Us/Firefox/Downloads/File/16445/Mozilla_Xforms-0.0.0.1-Fx+Sm-Macosx.Xpi

I was able to confirm this on my MacBook Pro. Same error message (except that the file URL is ...Xforms-0.8.0.1-...).
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
Thanks for the confirmation Javier. This falls into the realm of addons, so routing there.

Looks like the file in question is under review which explains the failed hash check -- the file doesn't yet exist on the mirrors. It is a possible bug in the public page (shouldn't show the link if it's not approved!).
I updated the file status and it should be showing up on the public mirrors shortly. I also recalculated the hash. Looks to be fixed, please reopen if there are still issues with the hash check.
