I am trying to run HDP 2.5 in VMWare player by selecting “Open a Virtual Machine” button but every time it is throwing an error saying:

Failed to open virtual machine: SHA1 digest of file HDP_2.5_docker_vmware_25_10_2016_08_59_25_hdp_2_5_0_0_1245_ambari_2_4_0_0_1225-disk1.vmdk does not match manifest.

Usually this kind of issue indicates a corrupted "vmdk" image file. So please check the "md5sum" result of the file that you downloaded to make sure that it is not corrupted.

You can find the md5sum result of your sandbox vm from: https://hortonworks.com/downloads/#sandbox

Also you might want to refer to VMWare Sandbox prerequisite:https://hortonworks.com/hadoop-tutorial/hortonworks-sandbox-guide/#section_3

Thank you for your response.

Is there any way to repair this file?

Downloading again this file (11GB) is painful task

There are some tools available but those are not guaranteed to fix such issue. However VMWare forums might be more useful in order to fix the corrupted manifst file.
