Official incident page

Incident Report

We have identified and are currently verifying a fix for an issue raised by a subset of customers distributing RedHat packages The symptoms are, when a package has been uploaded and get signed by Cloudsmith, the checksum for the package isn't fully updated post-signature, and when clients attempt to retrieve the package with checksum validation, it fails to validate with the following: "Downloading successful, but checksum doesn't match. Calculated: Expected " A fix has been implemented to resolve the issue, but as it only affects a subset of customers, we're still in the process of verifying this has been fully fixed. A workaround mitigation is that a resync of the package will fix the issue. Once we fully validate the fix, we'll determine if we can backfill a fix for all affected packages.

The issue has now been resolved, and any/all affected checksums for RedHat packages have been automatically recalculated. If you encounter any further issues, please try clearing any local caches first (e.g. for yum, using "yum clean all").
