Several users have solved this problem by increasing the preferred size of the installer. Try increasing it from the current 384 KB (or something close to that) to, say 2,000KB.

Thanks.

i'm running sys 8.6 on a 333 imac.

i increased the memory for the install program to 3000 and it worked.

yum.

I am running mac os 8.6 on a blu & white G3 384mb ram i already have 1.7 and it works fine but 1.8c and 2.0 will not install corrupt and if i try to increase the memory in get info i get an error 39 message ive tried all the download sites and and all the versions and they are all corrupt!!!!

If you're getting a -39 error (as opposed to a 39 error) then the installer is corrupt. When the memory size is adjusted the actual installer is changed slightly (written) and at that point the Finder realizes something is wrong with the file. Try running Disk First Aid and repairing problems it finds as the file itself may be fine but the computer doesn't really know where it is and hence the error.

I too experienced the same problem when installing from the
latest LimeWire install application. I noticed that I was running LimeWire
in the background so I quit it. Then tried to Install. Same "Corrupt File" message.
Then I rebooted, and tried to install again with a "fresh" Mac.
Voila! It worked.

I then tried it again, just to test the experiement. When I tried to run the Installer
on a Mac that was previously running any version of LimeWire, the file would not
install. Once I rebooted, and tried again, it would launch the installer.

It appears the Installer looks at either the current version of JAVA or something in
prefs folder and finding that file in use, it fails the installer causing a "corrupt" message.

Hope this helps.

Thanks to everyone for all of the info. We're adding this to the LimeWire FAQ.

I get the same error trying to install version normal and no VM version. Totally frustrating.

This installer is corrupt. The zip archive contained in the installer is corrupt.

Once it quits it leaves these 3 things in the trash

IA JavaInstaller (delete) 33554
IA MRJInstaller (delete) 671088
InstallAnywhere SEA.log

I have a G3 running OS 8.6 and have MRJ 2.2.5

This is what's in the installer log

Can anyone help?

What I do not understand is how can some people (like me) install this file, and
others can not? If a file is corrupt, then it is corrupt. It can not change from
one download to another. I installed it. It works. Others can not.
Anyone have an idea on this?

The error may be wrong in that the file is not corrupted but something else is the problem. If someone downloads the installer but the connection is broken and not resumed the partial file is corrupted. Had the download finished the file would be fine.
