[nico3133]

Hi all,

Trying to generate a template for Windows2022, but, at each attempt it fails on some random error like :
Found PyPy 'pypy3.9-v7.3.13-win64.zip' package azure-arm.image: Downloading package from: https://downloads.python.org/pypy/pypy3.9-v7.3.13-win64.zip to path C:\Users\packer\AppData\Local\Temp\pypy3.9-v7.3.13-win64.zip . azure-arm.image: Package downloaded successfully in 0.06 seconds ==> azure-arm.image: WARNING: The scripts pip.exe, pip3.11.exe, pip3.8.exe and pip3.exe are installed in 'C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\PyPy\3.8.16\x86\Scripts' which is not on PATH. ==> azure-arm.image: Consider adding this directory to PATH or, if you prefer to suppress this warning, use --no-warn-script-location. ==> azure-arm.image: Checksum verification failed.

Hi, @nico3133. Checksum comparison was introduced recently in order to fit some security and compliance requirements. If you don't need it you can alter behavior of corresponding functions. E.g. you may replace throw in Use-ChecksumComparison with Write-Host. Unfortunately, there is no any conventional way to disable that verification.

Also it's always recommended to build images from main branch and avoid using releases or tags. More on that here: #8476 (comment)

Hello @vpolikarpov-akvelon
THanks for your answer, I understand.

I always use a clone from the main, so I hope all will be good.

Thanks for you quick answer, have a nice day !
