Abstract
We reexamine the oscillator construction of the D25-brane solution and the tachyon fluctuation mode of vacuum string field theory given previously. Both the classical solution and the tachyon mode are found to violate infinitesimally their determining equations in the level cut-off regularization. We study the effects of these violations on physical quantities such as the tachyon mass and the ratio of the energy density of the solution relative to the D25-brane tension. We discuss a possible way to resolve the problem of reproducing the expected value of one for the ratio.
