Files

Checksum

Starting with EntryStore 5.1, every document uploaded will have a hashcode. This can be used to verify that the uploaded document is not corrupted.

The hashcode is included as Digest header in the HTTP response when accessing a resource/file using the following URL pattern:

GET http://{host}/store/{context}/resource/{entryId}

It is also included in the resource's entry information object which can be accessed using the following URL pattern:

GET http://{host}/store/{context}/entry/{entryId}

The hashcode is generated using SHA-256 and is stored together with the uploaded file with the extension .sha256.

Any document created before version 5.1 will not have this hashcode. You can remedy this by re-uploading the document.
