tar.gz not extracting
I have downloaded a tar.gz file in my home direcrory.when I try to extract the file it show following erroe message.
Code:
[root@localhost home]#tar xvf blablabla.tar.gz garden |
and what do you get when you run
Code:
file blablabla.tar.gz |
1) verify that the file exists in the working directory
Code:
ls *.gz 3) make sure you have a "clean" command line, i.e., that there are no non-printing characters already typed when you start typing the command. I face quite often this problem when working on ssh between different machines, that sometimes the command line shows nothing (looks empty) but really contains some character(s) that simply do not print. In this case they mess up the commands typed in. To be clear, press Enter a couple of times to get a clean line. |

what is the output from Code:
ls |
ahh, yes, so first of all you should do:
Code:
locate blablabla.tar.gz |
