This is probably caused by the download timing out - you can delete the partially downloaded file(s) and try again.

This is the second VMWare user with timeouts. I wonder if there's some bug in VMWare.

Thanks for the rep
Is the time out in vmware only and how to delet downloaded files?…if restart without backup can fix it

The timeout happens to me occasionally outside of vmware.

Re-starting without a backup will not fix things as extensions are downloaded to permanent storage unless you are booting from an iso in the vm every time.

Assuming your extensions folder is at /mnt/sda1/tce/optional and your download timed out whilst downloading an extension named extension_name, you would delete it like this:

Code: [Select]

$ rm /mnt/sda1/tce/optional/extension_name.tcz*
