Downloaded .pup file won't open or install
When I downloaded a .pup file to puppy and I clicked on it,it would not run itself. A error appered and said. File integrity ERROR:BURNS2.PUP suggestion:download the file again. not enough space to unzip?
You need to tell us more. How are you running Puppy (from hard disk, live CD or what?) Do you have a swap file or partition? How much RAM have you? For best results Puppy requires at least 128 MB.

running puppy
Iam running puppy from hard drive
what is the package for? ... where did you get it?
it might be a corrupted file, or it might be a file that is not on the server (the downloader program will pass an empty file - o bytes - to the dotpup handler program if the file is not on the server) ... or it might be a package that was not made properly
the main idea with the file integrity check: if the program does not work properly after it is installed, the creator of the package knows that it uploaded and downloaded properly and does not have to consider a corrupted file as a possible cause of the problem

if you are using the download program, it is probably a broken link ... the links for the dotpup files that were hosted by the forum are pretty much all broken, and will not work, until someone fixes them (each file has a number, and the number for each dotpup file on the forum has changed) ... plus there are still some that link to the old goosee server, that are also broken (and can't be fixed, they need to be removed)
