servlet24-api checksum issue while installing tomcat6

[fbdiom@…]

When trying to install Tomcat6, encounter this error:

...

I've tried cleaning the installation, reinstalling MacPorts, to no avail.

This appears to be a servlet24-api issue. Try the following:

sudo port clean --all servlet24-api
sudo port install tomcat6

This is still happening. It looks like most mirrors no longer have 5.5.25 since 5.5.27 is current. Is it possible the file on apache.adcserver.com.ar actually is corrupt?

In fact it is—it's an HTML file; the mirror is broken. I was able to download a correct version from ​here.

I updated to version 5.5.27 in r53539.
