gunzip problem! unexpected end of file

UNIX Solaris
1

I've downloaded the tomcat from the link below and ftp to Solaris by ftp in binary mode
Ref: Index of /dist/jakarta/tomcat-5/v5.0.30/bin

gunzip -c jakarta-tomcat-5.0.30.tar.gz | tar -xvf -
 
gunzip: jakarta-tomcat-5.0.30.tar.gz: unexpected end of file
tar: read error: unexpected EOF

However, it displays error....how to solve it?

2

download the checksum from the source, too and check if your file is corrupted.

3

I've checked with MD5Checksum, the codes are different. How to get the entire file?

However, the jakarta-tomcat-5.0.30.tar.gz can be decompressed. Does it affect the performance in Solaris?

4

whats the connection between decompressing the file and performance of tomcat ?:confused:
To make it simple, re-download the file.
#gunzip <filename>.tar.gz
#tar -xf <filename>.tar > /dev/null &

Try...:wink:

I've redownded the file from other browsers (e.g. Opera/Firefox) at window platform. The file is still incomplete. It's so strange..

6

is your disk full?

7

It used up to 88%....there's room to run..

8

I went to the site to download.
I noticed that the extension is <filename>.tar.tar so you should untar twice..

The tar file was created with a (partially broken) Gnu tar. Use gtar to extract it.
