Hello,

I'm having trouble uploading macOS installers as DMG to my repository.
I followed the admin guide, uploaded it with the Jamf Admin app, but when I check the box "item is a DMG with macOS installer ........" then proceed to scan I have the following error :

0a5e89d2f6154f96a585891832e3fbb2

I've never been able to get passed this, wether is it a macOS install or an adobe installer, or whatsoever.
When googling this is feel like, no one as ever encountered this issue.
Any clue ?

For .dmg's that contain a .pkg within, you should just upload the .pkg itself, not the .dmg.

For .dmg's that contain an .app that you want to deposit into the Applications folder, you probably want to repackage them as a .pkg. You can use Composer, or I think there are a couple of tools that will transform a .dmg to a .pkg in a more automated method.
