S8000 switch (gs808e)

Dear Sirs,

 

I have successfully updated the firmware from version 1.0.1.6 to 1.0.2.3

 

now I can't update to the latest firmware (v1.7.1.0) because when I start the update the process stops and the following message appears:

"file image (.bin) is not correct"

 

Why?

 

I would like to find the solution to the problem and update the "S8000 switch" to the latest firmware

 

on my pc there is Windows 7 64bit


My browser Is Google Chrome.


I await suggestions.

Best Regards

Andrea

I solved the problem.

The switch is now updated to the latest firmware (v1.7.1.0)

The antivirus was blocking the update so I had to disable it.

Try going to an intermediate version like the 1.7.0.6

I have already tried all versions 1.7.x.x but I always get the same message: "the image of the file is not correct" and the switch does not update...

Are you extracting the file before trying to upload it?

Re: S8000 switch (gs808e)

yes, obviously I extract the file before the update but the switch does not update
I had no problems with firmware v1.0.2.3
I cannot understand why the switch does not accept firmware from version 1.7 onwards

What antivirus was blocking (might help others)?

You can mark it solved and it might help others with this issue.
