Can't get firmware uploaded to switch.

When I try to upload the firmware to the switch it will error out. I have tried through SmartZone, TFTP, and flash drive with no success. Yes, I downloaded it several times and even tried a different version but it still will error out.

I am not sure exactly what is happening there, but it isn't liking something with your folder/manifest. I would say 99.9% of people just use the singular UFI image for upgrades. If you don't specifically need the manifest flavor of upgrade, I would recommend trying the UFI.

Example of TFTP upgrade: (not sure what platform you are on, so image name could be different for you)

copy tftp flash 192.168.1.250 SPR08095gufi.bin primary

For USB:

copy disk0 flash SPR08095gufi.bin primary

Also, can you confirm what code you are coming from? (show version)

Here is what happens when I do that.

telnet@xxxxxxx#copy tftp flash 10.50.0.133 SPS08095hufi.bin secondary

Downgrading from 9.x. I had no issues with the other 40 some odd switches but I have two that refuse to take the firmware.
