Trouble downloading Fedora Workstation live 44 1.7 x86-64 iso

Ask Fedora

Hi all,
I have been trying to download the iso for a few hours now, and either the site is under heavy load or Anubis is right when it tells me some admin has misconfigured Anubis. Fact is: instead of the signed checksum file I got an error by Anubis. Instead of the ISO image file I get consistent errors, ranging from 403 over 404 to 504.
The dialog tells me the sha256 checksum should be

1620295f6a00c27c3208f0c00b8ece4eab1ec69b9002152d97488bf26a426ddf

I can download the public fedora certificates (base64 for fedora.pgp, binary for fedora.gpg).

I’d really like to get a fedora 44 up and running soon, but I’ll patiently wait for your responses.
Cheers
Shrubby

There seems to be a few issues with some mirrors.

For the time being, I’d recommend downloading using the torrents: Download Fedora Linux 44 via BitTorrent | The Fedora Project

@boniboyblue , thanks a bunch.

First time ever I use transmission… But it works and I suspect the file might even pass all checks.

One keeps learning…

Cheers, Shrubby

edit: The check succeeded, and I’m currently seeding 1 peer…

If you still have issues with the 1.7 ISO, please feel free to try the re-spins which contain the updated kernels, since release, already.

Do not forget, mirrors not necessarily have all the same to download. It looks like your mirror just offers a fraction of what the the main mirror comes with, which makes sense to save space:

P.S.
So if you check, the workstation ISO is not available. Looks like your installation just takes this mirror because it is close to you and it has the everything directory for updating your system.
If you want to find manually a mirror close to you just search here https://mirrormanager.fedoraproject.org/mirrors
