same issue. started tonight

The issue seems to be on jfrog.io, the download links are dead https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/1.76.0/source/boost_1_76_0.tar.gz

It seems to be the only mirror according to:
https://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_76_0.html

The issue seems to be on jfrog.io, the download links are dead https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/1.76.0/source/boost_1_76_0.tar.gz

It seems to be the only mirror according to: https://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_76_0.html

And even there links dont work, rederecting to dead site

We found a temporary solution until the issue is resolved

move to

node_modules/react-native/third-party-podspecs/boost.podspec

spec.source = { :http => 'https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/1.83.0/source/boost_1_83_0.tar.bz2',
:sha256 => '6478edfe2f3305127cffe8caf73ea0176c53769f4bf1585be237eb30798c3b8e' }

change to

spec.source = { :http => 'https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.83.0/boost_1_83_0.tar.bz2',
:sha256 => '6478edfe2f3305127cffe8caf73ea0176c53769f4bf1585be237eb30798c3b8e' }

I solved it with this.

@cortinico

@cortinico do you plan to fix it so we would not need to patch it? Any ETA?

I solved it with this.

Same issue.

same issue

Also having the issue (running react-native@0.72.4)

The same case.

Happy New Year You All Guys!

Facing the same issue... Running on React native 0.72.8, Boost 1.76.0

Error installing boost
Verification checksum was incorrect, expected f0397ba6e982c4450f27bf32a2a83292aba035b827a5623a14636ea583318c41, got 5e89103d9b70bba5c91a794126b169cb67654be2051f90cf7c22ba6893ede0ff

@prateekuttreja2020

Same issue as @prateekuttreja2020 . Running on React Native 0.70. Boost 1.76.0

same issue, react native v. 0.72.6 - only happens in the CI/CD pipeline though..

Same issue with me but why this issue is closed ?

Same error here. (0.71.6)

@prashantkamboj

Hi everyone. We are extremely sorry for the disruption. As I mention already, we don't own the service where Boost is hosted, so this is not a part of our infra where we can intervene directly.

We are working on a solution to avoid this problem in the future, so bear with us for now.
From your reports, I can see that the version affected are:

0.70
0.71
0.72
0.73

Please bear in mind that 0.70 is not supported anymore. We might consider to make a new release for the sake of this change, but that's still up for discussion.

Please, stop adding comment like "+1" or "I'm affected too", because this just adds noise to the issue and doesn't make us work faster.

@prashantkamboj the issue is closed because the exact same incident happened around New Year's Eve and then the infra recovered the 1st of January, so we closed the issue.
Now, a week after, it is presenting again.

Workaround

To unblock yourself, you can apply the changes highlighted by this PR: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/42118/files

For 0.72 and 0.73, these changes should be straight forward, as they are already in the monorepo setup, so the files path matches with the one of the PR.

For 0.70 and 0.71, we are not in the monorepo. To get the right path, remove the package/react-native from the two files paths.
So, the paths are:

For the build.gradle.kts: <your_project>/node_modules/react-native/ReactAndroid/build.gradle.kts
For the boost.podspec: <your_project>/node_modules/react-native/third-party-podspecs/boost.podspec

for those with boost@1.76

spec.source = { :http => 'https://archives.boost.io/release/1.76.0/source/boost_1_76_0.tar.gz',
                  :sha256 => '7bd7ddceec1a1dfdcbdb3e609b60d01739c38390a5f956385a12f3122049f0ca' }

Quick way to find out: download the file and run sha256sum <filename>

for those with boost@1.76
spec.source = { :http => 'https://archives.boost.io/release/1.76.0/source/boost_1_76_0.tar.gz',
                  :sha256 => '7bd7ddceec1a1dfdcbdb3e609b60d01739c38390a5f956385a12f3122049f0ca' }
Quick way to find out: download the file and run sha256sum <filename>

Excellent! The temporary solution, as mentioned by others earlier, is effective. However, the issue is that we need to apply this solution every time we install fresh packages. Even creating a patch for these changes doesn't work seamlessly. I'm still in search of a permanent fix.

@cipolleschi

Hi!
React V. 0.70.5 question. Im a bit unsure what to do as remove "package/react-native" from the path.

.../node_modules/react-native/ReactAndroid/build.gradle has

    src("https://archives.boost.io/release/${BOOST_VERSION.replace("_", ".")}/source/boost_${BOOST_VERSION}.tar.gz")
    onlyIfNewer(true)
    overwrite(false)
    dest(new File(downloadsDir, "boost_${BOOST_VERSION}.tar.gz"))

And .../node_modules/react-native/third-party-podspecs

  spec.name = 'boost'
  spec.version = '1.76.0'
  spec.license = { :type => 'Boost Software License', :file => "LICENSE_1_0.txt" }
  spec.homepage = 'http://www.boost.org'
  spec.summary = 'Boost provides free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries.'
  spec.authors = 'Rene Rivera'
  spec.source = { :http => 'https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/1.76.0/source/boost_1_76_0.tar.bz2',
                  :sha256 => 'f0397ba6e982c4450f27bf32a2a83292aba035b827a5623a14636ea583318c41'}

I am unsure what to change like @cipolleschi mentioned.

Could somebody point me on what to change as issue is critical for me at the moment.

You could check this. Maybe it helps

i guess you need to do the patch package by changing the source url

We have an official workaround and a pinned issue: #42180.
I'm locking this conversation.
