tar

[Dagmar Bendová]

Hallo, I have created an archive at OS RedHat 7.2 than I wanted to make untar the archive at OS HP-UX 11.00 with this mistake:

ork/README_ASO.htm, 45736 bytes, 90 tape blocks
x ././@LongLink, 114 bytes, 1 tape blocks

Can you help me? Thanks

Hi,

Yes you can extract the contents on HP-Ux. Just give "tar -xvf /pathtofile" or just "tar -tvf pathtofile" to check acchive.

HTH,

Dagmar,

Think you should use Gnu Tar for hpux.

Hi,

From the post I could not understand what command you typed by mistake. And what happened to the file. Did you created with absolute path or relative path.

HTH,
Devender

[Dagmar Bendová]

OK.
1. RH 7.2: tar cvf a.tar a
2. HP-UX 11.0: tar xvf a.tar
mistake: x ././@LongLink, 114 bytes, 1 tape blocks

I use relative path.

There is no link for depot for HP-UX 11.00 on the page http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Gnu/tar-1.15/
Thanks.

You can install a depot from 11.11, I think it will work. Try it, the worst case it won't install it.

Why try something that won't work.

Fetch a real 11.00 build from my site:

http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/tar-1.13.25-pa2.0

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

OK, I just uploaded a 64bit tar-1.15.1 depot for 11.00

Currently just at cmve available, but the others will sync up soon
