Neo4j community 4.0.0 tarball sha256 checksum doesn't match

[George-Zipperle]

Up until now, I've been using the Neo4j Desktop and/or the cloud sandbox,
but now I need to use the Neo4j Admin Tool.

So I downloaded the Neo4j Community Edition 4.0.0 / 15 January 2020 for Linux/.MaxOS from

Neo4j Graph Database Platform

Neo4j Download Center - Neo4j Graph Database Platform

Community-Contributed Drivers Thanks to the Neo4j contributor community, there are additionally drivers for almost every popular programming language, most of which mimic existing database driver idioms and approaches. See the dedicated pages linked...

SHA-256 given on that page:
63c85ee709916f9f5fa2fac7274f1a55bdd44d6ab353cbdd05f050aed9532e82

but the command
$ openssl dgst sha256 neo4j-community-4.0.0-unix.tar
shows:
9a97d6f776bb4adceb06fef4a2423782dad723ab48b47cb04f9c0af1876a811d

repeated downloads, and variations on the openssl command yield the same result

System: macOS Mojave 10.14.6 (18G2022)
OpenSSL 1.1.1d 10 Sep 2019

Please advise

Good morning,
Good thing to check the hashing of a downloaded file.
The file you can download is neo4j...tar.gz the " gz" part means it is also compressed.
The file you apply the checksum is the allready uncompressed version "neo4j...tar" (without the " gz" part).
Thats why you get a different sum result.

$ sha256sum neo4j-community-4.0.0-unix.tar.gz
63c85ee709916f9f5fa2fac7274f1a55bdd44d6ab353cbdd05f050aed9532e82 neo4j-community-4.0.0-unix.tar.gz

$ sha256sum neo4j-community-4.0.0-unix.tar
9a97d6f776bb4adceb06fef4a2423782dad723ab48b47cb04f9c0af1876a811d neo4j-community-4.0.0-unix.tar < without the "gz"

Yours kindly,
Omer
