RAR file is corrupt

It took me a good enough time to download this heavy RAR file which is about 3GB but to my utter shock it came out to be corrupted.
I am no tech but I can follow as step by step solution if anyone can provide in an easy manner. I have already search over lot of internet pages but I couldn't actually relate to that typically technical language.
Can anyone give a comprehensive guide to fix my RAR file or if there is any tool that I can use but it should be more automated.

Hi baldwin neal，
I agree with Milos. This may happen that the downloaded file is corrupted.

Java EE 5 Edition Trial .rar file is corrupt?

Has anyone else noticed that "<a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/cfc19866-0401-0010-35b2-dc8158247fb6">Java EE 5 Edition</a>" trial .rar file is corrupt? I get the following errors while extracting the contents, and setup.exe errors out:
"! SAPNWAS_JAVAEE5_T06.rar: CRC failed in setup.jar. The file is corrupt"
"! SAPNWAS_JAVAEE5_T06.rar: Unexpected end of archive"
Also, general feedback for SAP: many companies block the ability to use FTP, which means potential customers cannot download your product...

I don't know if it was a temporary issue or what, but I DL'd the file again Sunday and it worked without issue...

Try full rar.

Non-free trial (time-limited) version, i think.
Usage: rar <command> -<switch 1> -<switch N> <archive> <files...>

Corrupted .rar file / incorrect password (help please)

hi there,
i have been sent several .rar video files and usually have no problem expanding them. i generally use Rar Expander and UnrarX. this time however, half-way through the expansion, it always stops, saying the password is incorrect or the file is corrupted. whilst it is being expanded i can watch the file up until the half-way point by locating it in finder. my mate has constantly tried uploading and sending me the file that seems to be corrupted but it's always the same issue. is there a way i can start the expansion after the corrupted file so i can see the other half of the file or expand each file individually. i also have VLC Rar Loader but for some reason I can't open this individual files in this either. please help, i would greatly appreciate.
thanks in advance, ravi.

Consecutive rar files cannot be opened individually. So if you have 10 .rar files, and the 5th one is broken, you can only view items in .rar files 1~4, and parts of 5 if you're lucky.
Sorry, but that's how split compression works. You miiight be able to fix it using some special tool, but I don't know of any that works if the resulting file is supposed to be one giant video file.
In all honesty, you would be better off re-downloading from their origins.

Downloading .Rar files? (always corrupt)

Everytime I try to download a .rar file, it ends up getting corrupted. I'm pretty sure this has to do with the Nvidia firewall that comes with the graphics card. Does anyone know how to deal with this issue?
Thanks,
David Miller

fine for me
maybe it's under password

ITunesSetup says some install files are corrupt, iPod wont be read by pc..

My ipod and itune were working fine earlier today and before, but whenever i try to update to the latest verion the install says some install files are corrupt, and now my itunes suddenly no longer reads my ipod... This is like the 20th time this ipod not being read by pc problem has occurred and it's really making me never trust apple with pcs again.

2. "I ran the system rescue cd and fsck'ed both partitions" -> Did you get any direct filesystem error message from the system?
3. What happens if you try to delete the corrupted files and restart ? Does it become corrupted too every time?
4."X sometimes won't start, I get a black screen and I need to power down by holding the power button." -> Which driver/kernel/xorg version do you use ? I've experienced such a situation with the nvidia-185.18.31 driver.
Thank you for your quick response.
1. Is it safe to delete the corrupted files in /var/log? I already deleted viminfo after it got corrupted the first time, but it happened again.
2. In the rescue cd, fsck quickly said "it's ok" without checking. Is there a way to force it to check? The man page doesn't say. The longer check I get sometimes when booting ("hasn't been checked in the last X mounts yadda yadda") shows only "fixed write time in the future" from time to time.
3. The Xorg.0.log particularly gets corrupted after the hard restart that I issue when X fails to start and a black screen locks up the pc.
4. xf86-video-ati is 6.12.2-2, kernel26 is 2.6.30.4-1. xorg-server: 1.6.3-2. The black screen issue will be (I hope) solved in the other thread I made (link in first post), but I have the suspicion that both problems are very closely related (one is the cause for the other, or some sort of vicious circle.)

How to attach the .emp files and .rar files in this forum.

Dear Sir ,
I want to attach the ".emp" file or .emp file stored in the "rar", how to attach these files in this forum because whenever I am going to attch the .emp file or .rar file , it is showing the error that " The contents of the attachment doesn't match its file type".

Well, you might think that. But you would be wrong.
I'm not aware of any unix OS with an undelete function at the filesystem level.
Such things don't tend to work well in a multiuser/server environment where lots of things are writing to the disk in the background.
And trying to guess what the filesystem used to look like is a good way to court random file system corruption.

SDMKIT.JAR The file is corrupt

Hi,
I'm trying to install NW04 SneakPeak Java edition and keep getting this error. I have tried extracting both the files together and into a directory with a small name (c:/nw4) as these seem to be common problems but I still get the same problem, Any suggestions?
!   CRC failed in NW04SneakPrevJavaSP11\NWSneakPreviewSP11\SneakPreviewContent\SDM\SDMKIT.JAR. The file is corrupt
Cheers,
Paul

I had this same problem. When I was trying to install I would the get the following error at the step "Install Java Engine".
ERROR 2006-12-30 18:10:24
MUT-03011 Execution of the command "C:\j2sdk1.4.2_09\bin\java.exe -classpath C:/DOCUME1/ADMINI1/LOCALS~1/Temp/sapinst_exe.1928.1167518691/JAR/ins-j2ee.jar com.sap.ins.j2ee.JarInfo -u C:/sap/DevWPInstallation\JAVA_EXPORT\SDM/SDMKIT.JAR" finished with return code 3. Output: C:/sap/DevWPInstallation\JAVA_EXPORT\SDM/SDMKIT.JAR is not a jar file!
I fixed it by using <b>WINRAR</b> freeware to extract the <b>.RAR</b> files.
My environment for installing SAP NetWeaver 2004s SR2 (SP9)
1. Download the two files Part1 (1.36 GB) and Part2 (1.34 GB)
2. JDK: jdk1.4.2_09
3. OS: Windows 2003 Server Evaluation version (6 months free @ microsoft.com)
4. Download and Install the WINRAR software on your machine.
5. Download JCE for Java from Java website.
Steps
1. Extract the two files in step 1 into the same folder. For ex: c:\s. Keep it short.
    After extraction the size of my c:\s folder is 2.77 GB.
2. Double click setup.bat. Wait for the program to run.
3. Its takes approximately two hours to completely install it from here.
    Try avoiding to UNINSTALL and INSTALL it might give you problems.

Suggest me please how to fix currupt rar files?

I´ve download a rar file and finally i got a message that my rar file is currupt...is there a tool to fix it? Can someone help me with this?

First of all, you can try the build-in "Compact and Repair" command in Access to repair your corrupt database, you can get more detailed info at:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/access-help/compact-and-repair-a-database-HA010341740.aspx
http://databases.about.com/od/tutorials/fl/How-To-Compact-and-Repair-an-Access-2013-Database.htm
If the above method does not work, then you can try third-party Access data recovery tools, such as DataNumen Access Repair at:
http://www.datanumen.com/access-repair/
I have used the tool in the past and it helps recovering some valuable data for me. The tool has a free demo so that you can try before you buy.
If you prefer to use a service instead of a product, then you can use Everything access data recovery service at:
http://www.everythingaccess.com/
I know Wayne in person and he will only charge you if you are satisfied with the recovery result.
Good luck!

Problem downloading rar file using HttpURLConnection

I'm trying to read a rar(archiving) file from the Internet using a HttpUrlConnection.
The program seems to work fine - however the download is not the same size as the file if downloaded through a browser.
The archive is 52,332kb when downloaded through a browser
and 4kb smaller when I try to download it.
When I try to extract the downloaded file (with winRAR) the header is corrupt and there is an unexpected end of archive.
Here is the pertinent code.
try
            // configure and open connection
            HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection)   currURL.openConnection(); // currURL is a URL object
            conn.setRequestProperty("Connection", "Keep-Alive");
            conn.setRequestProperty("Accept-Encoding", "gzip,deflate" );
            conn.setRequestProperty("Content-type", "application/x-rar-compressed" );
            conn.setRequestProperty("Cookie", cookie);
            conn.connect();
            // get an input stream from the HttpURLConnection object
            InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader( conn.getInputStream() );
            BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader( isr );
            /* the string file_name has been parsed from the url
             * and is in the format file_name.rar */
            File dest = new File("C:\\my_folder\\"+file_name);
            // open output stream
            OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream( dest );
            OutputStream buffer = new BufferedOutputStream( os );
            int data;
            while ( (data = in.read() ) != -1 )
               buffer.write(data);
            // close streams
            in.close();
            os.close();
catch( IOException iox)
     iox.printStackTrace();
}Thanks in advance.

Thanks ejp. I closed 'buffer' instead - that fixes the size problem.
The archive is now exactly the same size as it should be - but the header information is still corrupt.
When I compared the files using a binary comparison program it
said that the files although the same size were different by approx. 6.7mb out of 53.5mb.
I'm perplexed as to what this difference could stem from; is it the encoding, the charset, something similar?
The underlying file I'm trying to download is an avi if that makes any difference.

Error on extracting process: 'SDMKIT.JAR. The file is corrupt'

I wonder to know what happend and how can I fix it.
Appreciate your help,
Luis.

Hi Luis,
I dont't know about a mirror. I downloaded the files and extract without problems.
In the following thread is an instruction how to uncompress:
How can I extract files of kind .rar?
Do you use Winrar? Do you select both files if you extract? Try to rename the directory SAP_portal to NW4 (or an other very short name)
Hope that helps!
Best regards

.rar file difficulties

I'm able to download some .rar files and successfully use UnRarX to convert them and when converted it shows a file such as "TV-Trailer1.wmv.6"
Then I'm not able to play it. I've tried Quicktime with FlipForMac. I've tried Windows Media Player. I've removed the '6' from the extension. All I get is an error message that reads "Cannot open, not a movie file."

But, if UnRarX is not joining them together properly, then the file will be corrupted and unplayable.
If you get the same result from several different players on the same expanded file, then the next step is to go up the chain one link and either re-expand them or try a different expander.
If that still doesn't work, then you are looking at reobtaining the original archives.
Edit: Try playing the file with VLC. It's hands down the most versatile player.
