Hash Sum Mismatch Error on Raspberry Pi

Recently I removed the dev2day repository as per instructions, and then added the new repository as outlined on this page

Now whenever I run an apt-get update I get this message:

W: Failed to fetch https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb/dists/public/main/binary-armhf/Packages  Hash Sum mismatch

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can you download the file and show the hash?

Also, which version?

Is happening exactly the same thing to my plex installation on my raspberry pi server. The version I’m using is 1.16.2.1297

it was working fine till last update, but from today onwards happening to me as well,

W: Failed to fetch https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb/dists/public/main/binary-armhf/Packages Hash Sum mismatch

Plex Server 1.16.2.1297 on jessie, raspberry pi

until this version, update happen without an issue

did the following but same issue

sudo apt-get clean
and
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
and
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/partial

no luck, same issue

p.s. my system was originally upgraded from dev2day some time back, working fine since then.

There was another user today who found his key was corrupted.

I suggest the same procedure as next step. Reestablish the signing keys

Unfortunately it looks like my key wasn’t corrupted and these steps didn’t work. There was no “unknown” next to mine.

I’m still running version 1.15.4.993. I’m also still running Raspbian Jessie. Might this be an issue?

Anything is possible. If you have the installation DEB, you’re free to change installed versions at will.

So you’re recommending updating the distro? Because it seems like others are having this problem.

It’s a Pi issue. I don’t know the Pi processor other than it’s ARMv8.
@drmagoo would know far more than I do (resident Pi Meister)

installed using the guide

https://support.plex.tv/articles/235974187-enable-repository-updating-for-supported-linux-server-distributions/

still apt-get update fail with the same error.

W: Failed to fetch https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb/dists/public/main/binary-armhf/Packages Hash Sum mismatch

keys are

pub 4096R/3ADCA79D 2015-03-22
uid Plex Inc.
sub 4096R/132DFBE0 2015-03-22

I do have the same problem using my Pi. As of now none of the proposed solutions solved the problem.

Same problem here with a pi3

for me it started to work without me doing anything.

Everything is working for me now but I didn’t do anything
