Hash mismatch (integrity check failed) with Azure Blob Storage

I'm following http://willi.am/blog/2014/07/03/azure-blob-storage-and-node-downloading-blobs/.

However despite the exact same code, when I download blobs Azure gives the error:

[Error: Hash mismatch (integrity check failed), Expected value is ...]

The line being run is blobService.getBlobToText, with blobService being the connection to Azure (createBlobService...)

What's going on? :S

My code's below:

    // Azure test
    function downloadImageAsText(blobService, containerName, blobName) {

         blobService.getBlobToText(
              containerName,
              blobName,
              function(err, blobContent, blob) {
                  if (err) {
                      console.error("Couldn't download blob %s", blobName);
                      console.error(err);
                  } else {
                      console.log("Sucessfully downloaded blob %s", blobName);
                      console.log(blobContent);
                  }
              });

    }

    function uploadImage(blobService, containerName, blobName, fileName) {

      blobService.getBlobProperties(
        containerName,
        blobName,
        function(err, properties, status) {
            if (status.isSuccessful) {
                // Blob exists
            } else {
                blobService.createBlockBlobFromLocalFile(
                    containerName,
                    blobName,
                    fileName,
                    function(error, result, response){
                        if(error){
                            console.log("Couldn't upload file %s", fileName);
                            console.error(error);
                        } else {
                            console.log('File %s uploaded successfully', fileName);
                            downloadImageAsText(blobService, containerName, blobName);
                        }
                    });
            }
        });
    }


    function testAzure() {

      accountName / hash = my details

      var storage = require('azure-storage');
      var blobService = storage.createBlobService(accountName, hash);
      var containerName = 'tst';
      var blobName = 'test.png';
      var fileName = 'test.png';

      blobService.createContainerIfNotExists(containerName, function(err, result, response) {
          if (err) {
              console.log("Couldn't create container %s", containerName);
              console.error(err);
          } else {
              if (result) {
                  console.log('Container %s created', containerName);
                  uploadImage(blobService, containerName, blobName, fileName);
              } else {
                  console.log('Container %s already exists', containerName);
                  uploadImage(blobService, containerName, blobName, fileName);
              }
          }
      });
    }

    function startServer() {
      http = require('http');
      const PORT = 8080;
      var server = http.createServer(handleRequest);
      server.on('listening',function(){
        console.log("Server listening on: http://178.62.117.207:%s", PORT);
      });
      server.listen(PORT);
    }

    startServer();
    testAzure();

When you store a Buffer object, you can retrieve it with getBlobToStream.

const data: Buffer[] = [];
const stream = new PassThrough();

stream.on('data', (d: Buffer) => {
    data.push(d);
});

this.blobStorageContext.service.getBlobToStream(
    this.blobStorageContext.getContainerName(),
     blobName, stream, (error) => {
         if (error) {
           console.log(error);
         } else { 
           console.log(Buffer.concat(data));
         }
});

In case someone else runs into this; happens when you store a Buffer object but retrieve a string.

I've recently ran into this problem myself. Somehow npm -install azure-storage -g helped it. It might be that the package is updated on the npm and md5 calculation has changed since. Once I updated the azure-storage package, everything works like a charm.

Try something like the following (modifying the code from the blog post you mentioned):

var blobName = 'my-awesome-text-blob';
blobService.getBlobToText(
    containerName,
    blobName, {'disableContentMD5Validation': true },
    function(err, blobContent, blob) {
        if (err) {
            console.error("Couldn't download blob %s", blobName);
            console.error(err);
        } else {
            console.log("Sucessfully downloaded blob %s", blobName);
            console.log(blobContent);
        }
    });

See if this helps.

It can happen because of many internal MD5 check failures which works differently when you use HTTPS. Can you please try specifying your storage account as https? Like -

var blobService = storage.createBlobServiceAnonymous('https://MyAccountXX.blob.core.windows.net/');

Otherwise for me, this download function is working fine.

For reference, you can try following actual documentation - https://azure.microsoft.com/en-in/documentation/articles/storage-nodejs-how-to-use-blob-storage/
