Oracle BIEE 12c SampleApp v607 error

Hi Experts,
I am getting an error while extracting v607 zip file (001).
I have downloaded all the files and placed in a single directory as required. And i am trying to extract 001 file as suggested in the deployment guide. But the extraction is getting failed with an error: unexpected end of data.
I have downloaded the files using Free Download manager and I am trying to extract the files using 7 zip.
Has anyone came across the same issue, Can you able to provide me the solution please.
Thanks.

Hi,
Are your files all fine?
Did you check the checksum?
Did you double checked the extension is really .001, .002 etc. and not .001.zip but the .zip is hidden by Window?

Hi Gianni Ceresa,
I have checked the checksum and it is matching for all the files.
And the extension is .001 only,
Thanks,

Then that's strange ...
If the 5 files are named correctly (.001, .002, .003, .004, .005) and checksum is valid by extracting .001 with 7zip you end up with the .ova file (the vm image).
Did it many times (and not only me or the image wouldn't be online to download if not working).
Do you have enough disk space? Maybe it has an issue on that side?

Thanks for the response,
I do have 8GB RAM and 300 GB free disk space available in my system.
I am not sure if it is not enough to generate the ovm file.
Anyway i will check if it is struggling with any system resources.
Thanks

I got the same problem.. to be honest i don't remember what exactly I did, but I did something to change the extensions.. I change extension from .001 file to .zip extension.. and uncompress zip file extension, of course, this is not what the deployment guide says but it works for me (again it is not what oracle recommends) and of course if you want to try it.. take up backups of your .00 files first..

Your files have the wrong name ....

In your screenshot your files are visible as SampleAppv607p-appliance1.zip but look at the message of 7zip: SampleAppv607p-appliance1.zip.zip
Put the real names back, display extensions of files and make the name rights. I bet your Windows is hiding the known extension and so the files were named .001.zip, .002.zip etc.
Use Command Prompt if you aren't sure anymore of what you are seeing in File Explorer.
7zip doesn't lie and doesn't add a ".zip" in his error message windows, so your files always had the wrong names (to double check: did you see the files .002, .003, .004, .005 with the winrar icon in File Explorer? if yes then there was a hidden .zip extension, because otherwise only .001 can be a known file, all the others must be of an unknown type because of the .002, .003, .004, .005 extension).
PS: with 8Gb or RAM it will be slow, because your Windows will already use a part of it and so I guess only 6 or so can be available for the VM which is the minimum, so if it's slow take your time you know why

Thank you Gianni Ceresa ,
It makes sense to me, I will double check and update the status.
Thank you.
