downloaded version 3.3.0 (eventually) but when i tried to install, got the error message 'Installer integrity check has failed'. I did go to bugzilla here https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=117503 to find an answer and/or post this bug but found that i had to first subscribe. The process involved submitting my email address and then i would receive an activation link by email. However it has been 2 hours since and I still havent received the activation email.

Therefore can you please advise

1. why i havent yet received the activation email
2. why am i getting this system error when i try and install openoffice.

i have windows 7 (sp1).

Can't tell you about 1), as its management is nothing to do with this Forum.

About 2), perhaps your download is corrupt. The way to verify this is to check its MD5Sum, details at
http://www.openoffice.org/download/md5sums/index.html
or else try downloading using a Torrent (P2P) connection; the error checking on such connections is more rigorous.

i tried to download a torrent here http://www.openoffice.org/distribution/p2p/magnet.html but was getting a different error message i.e. 'unable to load “00o_2.1.0_Win32Intel_install_en-US.exe”:unable to parse magnet URI!'

I am using Utorrent as the BT client.

I have no such issue with my other machine which is running XP(sp3)

Try
http://www.openoffice.org/distribution/p2p/
Select from the dropdowns as appropriate. I take it that the OOo_2.1.0 in your posting is a typo - current version is OOo_3.3.0 etc.
It worked for me a few minutes ago

The links on that page are for old versions and are obsolete (the Magnet link is for OOo 2.1.0). Use the BitTorrent Links on http://www.openoffice.org/distribution/p2p/ where you can select a newer version of OOo.

i went to http://www.openoffice.org/download/ and then clicked on http://www.openoffice.org/distribution/p2p/ and then clicked on http://www.openoffice.org/distribution/p2p/magnet.html and still got the error message as before (and it is not a typo).

However if one follows the 3 steps the download appears. It would seem that the 'magnet link' is obsolete and if so should either be updated or removed.

If anyone saw a garbled reply apparently from surfing69, my apologies. I got confused with the moderator software and think I have now rectified _my_ error.

The various OpenOffice pages are in process of being updated and are not yet all up to date.

If you are using uTorrent for download I think you shouldn't be using a magnet link. Instead use the link I offered you and select from the dropdowns.

I'm having the exact same problem. None of the links provided here help unless I just don't understand. Please help.

If you are using Torrents don't. They are only for legacy versions 2.x etc. The current version is at http://www.openoffice.org/download/.

I've downloaded the current version twice. I'm still getting the same message as the original poster.

Hi,
I'm trying to download the torrent but the combo boxes have no options in this page: http://www.openoffice.org/distribution/p2p/
I also tried the magnet in this page: http://www.openoffice.org/distribution/p2p/magnet.html
but it refers to this exe;
http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/Open ... _en-US.exe
which you referred to as not good.
Do you have a direct link to version 3 torrent?

Thanks

This error is often the NSIS error. Use Forum search at top right of Forum window to search for NSIS to find previous discussion and solutions..

NSIS error indicates a corrupt download. Download a fresh copy deleting the old one and try again.
