Any suggestion? Is the file corrupted?

MD5SUM matches with the one indicated on the website:

`$ md5sum apache2-utils-2.4.23-29.34.4.x86_64.rpm

Thank you.  
Kind regards, Cristian.

You should use:

```auto
# zypper install ./*.rpm
```

or

```auto
# zypper update apache2-utils
```

instead of:

```auto
# rpm -U ./*.rpm
```

Check correct zypper configuration in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf and /etc/zypp/zypper.conf

As example:

`# more /etc/zypp/zypp.conf |grep -v ^#
download.use_deltarpm = false
repo_gpgcheck = on
pkg_gpgcheck = on
commit.downloadMode = DownloadInAdvance
solver.onlyRequires = true
multiversion = provides:multiversion(kernel)
multiversion.kernels = latest,latest-1,running`

Please read chaptre 6 of “Administration Guide”.

I always use rpm to update packages and never had any problem.  
In my opinion the package is corrupted.  
The same package from the SP3 stack works. The other packages are hydentical, but apache2-utils in SP4 is smaller than in SP3.
