cannot install windows joodle template on online.net

Since morning, I am trying to install windows on online.net ded box. It used to work last time I tried around a month ago.

So, from my online.net console, I restarted the server in rescue mode.

root@myserver:~# wget -O- '...' | gunzip | dd of=/dev/sda
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK
Length: 3756775368 (3,5G) [application/x-gzip]
Saving to: `STDOUT'

Cannot write to `-' (Broken pipe).

root@myserver:~#

Why does it fail? I have tried almost 10 times, it errors out the same place every time. What am I doing wrong?

    you should speak to him directly for any technical support.

    but broken pipe (in my case with my own templates it was due to wrong hdd name /vda/vdb /sda/ etc)

    Could also be a server issue (his side)

  • Seems to be a permission problem

    In the console, type: sudo -i and type in your password once it asks you to do so. Once done, use the wget command again. That should solve your problem.

    I tried the same. Still does not help. Any other thing to check?

    Which rescue image are you using? Did you use Ubuntu one?

    I guess your drive is almost die.

    Ubuntu rescue

    How can I validate it?

    have you tried both versions?

  • Please paste output of "fdisk -l" (without the quotes of course).

    I can see just 1.

  • I'm having the same problem, I'm trying to install new version over the old one on kimsufi server, and it shows this 'broken pipe' error.

    I have 3 partitions, maybe that's why it's showing that. How can I wipe all partitions and reset HDD through rescue mode ?

    So you are downloading the template from my mirrors :P

    Follow my guide here - https://www.whatuptime.com/installing-microsoft-windows-server-2016-datacenter-x64-online-net-personal-range-xc-2016-sc-2016/

    My best guess is you skipped step #10.

    If you continue to run into issues I offer assistance via my community forums.

    Thanks, I found out that it was my fault. I was booting into wrong rescue mode (freebsd), I thought rescue64-pro was only for online hardware tests..
