Invalid Firmware with 8.3.1 B3

[heinduplessis]

I'm trying to upgrade using the GUI, but after selecting the image "FreeNAS-8.3.1-BETA3-x86.GUI_Upgrade.xz" and entering the SHA-256 (c31110a62d63eb4a8e012e0326715e6a513bd6d23eb6a13920b4174bebd82935) found in "FreeNAS-8.3.1-BETA3-x86.GUI_Upgrade.xz.sha256.txt", I still get a Invalid Firmware Error. What am I doing wrong?

I'm currently on 8.3.0 RC1

Thanks

You must use .txz, not .xz, it is clear in the release notes, but I guess nobody reads it ;)

Sorry William I normally try not to be that person - I misread my own version thinking it's pre 8.2.0. Thank you very much...

EDIT: Rats, just tried it with the txz, same error! I think I'll just go the ISO route..

Do you realize you have a space " " in your sha256 hash?

I see, but that was still for the xz firmware, which I copied into the post, the txz hash is "079458eaac4d5a5728da848717beec6fba6b145c1fd7e5a7aa8db458627a9d2c", which is not working for me.

Which also has a space within the hash :))

Also make sure you're switching from x64 to x86 or vice versa

That seems to be an artefact from the forum. If I edit my message, it's without spaces. I'm sure I submit it without spaces :) I double checked everything and it's both x86 files.
