Sierra No Native Mechanism To Verify Applediagnostics.dmg

Solution for errors in macOS High Sierra installation.These instructions are based on my personal experience.Installation stuck at 'Retrying http://swcdn.apple.com/../InstallESDDmg.pkg after 1 failure(s)'

Backgrounds

This is upper layer, where packet is formed.The transaction layer checks are done end to end device, i.e. Only by the requestor and completer and no checks at switch or bridge for below errors. TL layer is responsible for checking the below errors at end to end level. ECRC check failure (optional check based on end-to-end CRC and AER). Apple's macOS Sierra update hints successor is on schedule The current pace of releases indicates macOS High Sierra will likely arrive the third week in September.

  • Upgrade from previous macOS. In my case, macOS Sierra.
  • Upgrade using macOS High Sierra Installer downloaded from App Store.
  • Upgrade went wrong during its progress. Black screen appeared. It tells you should diagnose or restart.

But after you restart it..

Check your conditions

  • Not able to boot. Screen shows question mark folder.
  • Not able to boot in Safe Mode either.
  • Able to boot in Recovery Mode.
  • Able to reinstall in Recovery Mode.
  • But it takes forever. The progress stops.
  • Last log says Retrying http://swcdn.apple.com/content/downloads/04/61/091-34298/almpfkbhyxnsgbxxqhoqo7sb40w3uip0wk/InstallESDDmg.pkg after 1 failure(s) or something similar.

If your condition follows all above then follow Downloading Stuck

If you're experiencing only the last step, then follow Downloading Stuck except DNS part.

If you somehow passed above situations, but still..

  • Requires disk password.
  • Your password doesn't work. Including your Account password, FileValut password, iCloud password.
  • Reset Password Mode doesn't help. All the three options are not available.
  • Safe Mode results the same.
  • Able/Not able to boot in Recovery Mode.
  • Previously encrypted your disk using FileValut. (maybe doesn't matter)

If your condition follows all above then follow Disk Password is Required

Notes

Sierra

You can get into Recovery Mode by following this method. Start up from macOS RecoveryI tried all options. Command (⌘)-R and Option-Command-R were showing the same result, while Shift-Option-Command-R didn't work at all since my disk format was already converted info APFS. I kept using Command (⌘)-R since then.

You can show log window by Command (⌘)-L or at the menu bar. Make it show your all logs instead of only errors. It helps you identify your problem more precisely.

At this point your installation progress should be stopped for hours. When you check the last log it will probably say something likeRetrying http://swcdn.apple.com/content/downloads/04/61/091-34298/almpfkbhyxnsgbxxqhoqo7sb40w3uip0wk/InstallESDDmg.pkg after 1 failure(s)The part InstallESDDmg.pkg may be different but you should see the patternRetrying http://swcdn.apple.com/content/downloads/../[filename] after # failure(s)Then this instructions may help you out from the problem.

Note that my solution is pretty complicated than it supposed to be considering the problem caused by a network issue. There might be some other solutions, but this is the only one that I found so far.

Without DNS

If you're on normal boot or able to boot on safe mode, you would be able to modify /etc/hosts file. Meaning that you're not required to run DNS server. I will mark all DNS parts with (DNS) symbol so that you can easily skip them.

Setup your environment

You need another PC. I used Ubuntu. Open terminal.

Clone this git repo.

Example of dmg in pathfinder fantasy grounds 2017. git clone https://github.com/Jinsung-L/install-macos-high-sierra.git

Move to the folder.

cd install-macos-high-sierra

Install python requirements. I used python3.

or this if you're running your file server on other machine.

Configure your router (DNS)

Now you have to make your MacBook connect to your DNS server. Since it's impossible to modify /etc/hosts or /etc/resolv.config in Recovery Mode, you'll have to find a way to configure your router. Change the DNS Server Setting of your router to use your DNS Server's IP address. You'll easily find a way to do this by searching from google.

Retry installation in Recovery Mode

Now everything is setup. Restart your mac to boot in Recovery Mode if you haven't yet.Retry reinstall macOS. It will work fine. After the reinstallation gets done, your system will get rebooted then it will continue the installation process.
