Strange error during FirePower image installation (into the ASA's SFR module)

[Ilya Semenov]

Hello, everybody,

I've tried to install FirePower image to ASA and got a strange error message after:

system install http://<HTTP_SERVER>/asasfr-5500x-boot-6.1.0-330.img

"Package header failed verification - 'Header magic number mismatch'"

How can I solve this issue? What file format is correct - *.img of *.pkg?

Many thanks in advance,

Ilya

You are trying to install the wrong image. At this stage you need the image "asasfr-sys-6.1.0-330.pkg". BTW: If you install a fresh system, I would directly go to version 6.2.
