can not extract the tar.gz file
From linux machine I checked out the tar.gz package and burnt the
CD using Nero5 in windows.Then I copied the tar.gz package from CD to linux machine. Then I performed following operations. $ tar -xvzf <tar.gz> I can't extract the tar.gz file with regular tar command. Also I used gzip and gunzip utilities. After executing <tar> command it give following error. tar:skipping to next header tar:error exit delayed from previous error. |
Code:
tar -zvcf <filename> |

Your command to extract the tarball was correct.
You may have a damaged file however. If you used the gunzip program first then do not use the -z option. You might also use the file command. Sometimes a file is saved with the wrong extension. The "file" command looks inside the file. |
