General :: Tar Fails To Extract Archive Containing Special Characters?
Jun 5, 2011The command tar -xvf wpa_tables.tar gives this error
tar: ./xai-0/334Regency: Cannot open: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
Obviously the backslash is giving tar some problem, but I've been all over the docs and can't figure out how to either make it skip this file or interpret the character literally. Here's my command history to show some of the options I've tried which don't work.
tar --no-wildcards -xkvf wpa_tables.tar
tar --exclude ./xai-0/\334Regency -xkvf wpa_tables.tar
tar --exclude "./xai-0/\334Regency" -xkvf wpa_tables.tar
tar --ignore-command-error -xkvf wpa_tables.tar
tar --ignore-failed-read -xkvf wpa_tables.tar
tar --transform 's/\/slash/g' -xvf wpa_tables.tar ./xai-0/\334Regency
I'm totally out of ideas at this point and would welcome some input from more experienced members.

View 5 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: How To Archive - Tar - Every Subdir
Jul 26, 2010I am stuck trying to write a script that does the following :
1. loops through all subdirectories of a given directory
2. for each found subdirectory, first create an archive carrying the same name as the subdir itself
3. then moves the actual subdirectory to a different path
Here is what I have so far: my base dir is /home/bob/Bureau, and it contains two sub dirs, "florissant 86 a" and "saule 84" I would like to create one archive for each subdir in /media/public/atelierPhotoArchive and then move the folder entirely to /tmp/photo.write
Everything goes well until I have to either tar or loop through the file with spaces in names
This last statement outputs different lines after each space in my lst file
Question 1: Is it possible to make it output once for each line in the file ?
Question 2: Is it possible to do some exec tar in the find command? I had difficulties extracting the "short" name for the archive ("saule 84") without /home/bob/Bureau, it is possible only with the printf %f, but how in the world can I get this value in to the exec option ?
General :: Using A Tar Archive To Update Directory?

That is to say, an option that directs the utility to over write existing files wile expanding a tar archive into a directory?
General :: How To Untar An Archive From One Directory To Another
Jul 19, 2010I want to untar a package from one directory to another directory, directly from the command prompt. I want to untar the joomla package into the htdocs directory of xampp. How to do that directly from command prompt ? The reason i am asking this is if I try the "drag and drop" way, it won't be possible as xampp is stored in /opt directory and without super-user authentication nothing can be saved into it. You can argue saying that why did I untar xampp initially in su mode ,but that had to be done so that apache doesnt give me any start-up problems.

Apr 21, 2010I'm trying to use tar to tar files before transfer, so I can keep the entire file path rather than losing it along the way. However, when I try to tar an empty folder, it tells me that it is cowardly refusing to create an empty archive. I want to keep the empty folder on the other end, but don't want to put anything else into the archive to make it non-empty. Is there any way to do this?
