I need to extract a tarball but unfortunately this error occurred when I tried it
# tar zxvf toolchain.tar.gz
tar: Skipping to next header
gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--format violated
tar: Child returned status 1
[code]....
Is there a way that I can recover or extract the tarball? I tried to gunzip first but to no avail as well.
I tried to install gfortran on my computer. When I extract the tarball, I forgot the '-C' option of the command 'tar', which should be added, according to the instruction of installation.
That is to say, I wrote in the mp directory:
Then, the tarball creates a '/usr' directory under '/tmp' directory, and it contains only a /local directory, which contains only a /gfortran directory.
The thing is, when I modify the name of this directory, for example, from /usr to /usr-modi, I found that the name of the directory /usr under the root directory is also changed from /usr to /usr-modi.
How can I delete this annoying /usr directory under /tmp, without tragically affect /usr under the root directory?
I have a basic question of awk.
Code:

echo $var | awk '{ FS = ":" ; print $NF }'

I am trying to extract last column from the above awk one liner.

Upon attempting to uncompress a tarball with

I created a tarball with multiple files. The rpm generator requires those files to be inside a folder. I don't want to move the files before generating the tar. Is there a way to create this folder while generating the tar or after it?

I recently downloaded vlc to my Linux OS distro Ubuntu 10.10. player, but am unable to skin it. I have dl'd several packages and they will not extract, even from root. Every time I attempt to extract the .vlt files from zip, I briefly see the extraction progress bar followed by this error: "An error occurred while extracting files."
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am not sure which thread this fits in, I am facing a strange problem. There is a code tarball that I cross-compile on a Fedora Core 9 machine and it builds fine. But when I do the same thing on a (heavily used) Fedora Core 7 machine, the build keeps failing in the gnuapp folders grep, coreutils etc. I have tried 'make distclean', and clearing the config.cache but no impact.
Note: I export the PATH variable (to the local cross-compiler) before starting the build. The cross compilation is for the MIPS processor and GNU makefiles are used.
I am using find to search for .tgz files modified more than 7 days ago and delete them.find /directory/ -iname backup*.tgz -daystart -mtime +7 -exec rm -rf {} My problem is that find will go through the content of tarball as well and list all content. I want to only search main tarball and delete it if older than 7 days.

I know a .bin file is an executable file type in linux. We have an error after installing it and it referes to a file name and a line number within the file. I'm trying to find out if the file is part of the .bin file but I need a way to see what's inside of it or extract it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIm trying to extract the contents of a zip file but I want to extract it to my own directory. I'v tried -d from unzip but that just puts the contents of the zip into that directory.
But I want to extract the contents of the first (root) directory in the zip if there is only one directory in the root of the zip else just extract the files/folders in the root of the zip file (if there are more then one files).
e.g. test.zip contents the following dir structure:
test.zip
/app_v1/ <-The contents of this directory I want extracted to a dir of my choice
- folder-1
- folder-2
- folder-3
- folder-4

I haven't been to this site in quite a while, since it changed from LNO in fact. Good to see this place is still around, albeit under a newer name.
I'll get on with the problem. I've got a Netgear SC101T that I was using to store my files on. Some of you may know it uses the DataPlow SAN file system. It worked fine until I installed a firmware update which, for some reason, broke the mirror array. I've hated this POS ever since and want to pull the data from the drives and toss the box. The problem is, linux doesn't have support for this particular file system scheme.
What I'm wondering is, how does 'dd' work, in regards to keeping the file system. Does it simply copy files and disregards the structure, or does it make an exact copy, DataPlow FS and all? Anyone else ran into this conundrum?

i tried using sed

but sed looks for content inside file.
